Poll: If I could break the laws of physics, I would...
-
- violate causality
- infinitely compress data
- transmit information faster than the speed of light
- create and/or destroy energy
- FILE_NOT_FOUND (explain below)
-
become Galactus
-
With great physics breaking power comes undefined consequences.
-
become so rich i caused a sexy UniverseOverflowException
-
Creation and destruction of energy would let you do so many cool things!
- Levitation and flying by adjusting potential energy
- Messing with your coworker's monitors by increasing or decreasing their light output
- Speeding up and slowing down vehicles by affecting their kinetic energy
- And many more!
-
I have the feeling most of these things imply or are the same as some other thing.
For example, transmitting information faster than light violates causality.

I'll need @blakeyrat's blessing, but I think you may be the worst of the worst.

I'd have a TARDIS, dammit.

Why is "break the laws of physics" not an option?
Filed Under: except everybody would have to click that option since it is almost always true!
-
Actually, now that I think about it, there should also be an option that says:
"be sexy"!
Filed Under: Admit it, you'd do that, too!

Ladies love the Time Lord look, btw.

I voted for 'violate causality'; specifically, I would prevent existence from ever beginning.

thinking about it, violate causality does sounds pretty hot. Sexy even.
-
Creating energy would be cool, because gas is fucking expensive.
-
I chose violate causality because that would let me do... well just about anything i wanted to.
like getting that grant proposal before writing it, so i could take the winning grant proposal (which of course would be mine) and photocopying it before it was written.
or, if i was really clever, causing all the news media to forget about the day/night cycle. That would be tricky, but with enough control over causality i could conceivably edit memory.

- Messing with your coworker's monitors by increasing or decreasing their light output
They'd probably thank you. Most idiots are charring out their retinas by keeping their brightness at 100% all the time.

- Messing with your coworker's monitors by increasing or decreasing their light output
Only do that to monitors they're not looking directly at. It's wildly annoying. (Had a display connector once that glitched the intensity randomly. Utterly awful.)
-
You're overestimating my niceness.
-
I would violate causality to tell myself what I should do with my new powers without having to think it before. Then I would do that.
I am pretty sure with most of those powers you could achieve anything. In fact, with "infinitely compress data" you could do things that are not just physically impossible, but mathematically impossible.

I would be magnanimous and give Ben Lubar his real dwarf fortress. Also turn him into a dwarf.

-
I would be monogamous and give Ben Dover alone my little dwarf. Also turn him into a gimp.
-
Creating energy would be cool, because gas is fucking expensive.
I can generate infinite gas by consuming a single curry.
-
Lister, is that you?
-
I would violate causality.
Why? No reason.
-
You sir owe me a new keyboard after that.
-
I would violate causality.
Why? No reason.
This deserves more appreciation than a mere like can express.
-
I can't violate causality? This is fucking bullshit.
-
Actually it makes perfect sense: you DON'T get the power to violate causality, then you use it to do it anyways.

I violate casualty every Friday :)

And so we circle back to the "All Men Are Rapists' topic. Is this the Godwin's Law of Dis&Curse?Filed under: wait a minute, that was @yamikuronue saying that...
