okay, you wake up one day and you now have the "super power" of your dreams, flying, super speed, turn invisible, etc.. the one catch is every time you use the ability a random person some where on the planet dies. could you use your new gifts, knowing someone some where will die because of you, or is the thought of a unknown strangers death enough to make you never use it?

If my superpower was to be able to kill a person with only a thought, could I off two people at a time?

See the upcoming movie The Box. Same concept, but no powers, instead you get a million dollars.

I probably wouldn't do it.

People die everyday that I don't know. What's one more random death when I could be saving more people if I wanted to use my power for good.

I don't want to be responsible for anyone dieing, but if saving 10 people costs one person their life that seems like a good trade.

Dieting?

Anywho, hell yeah, long as it wasn't anything gay like running really fast.

but what if the unknown person you killed just discovered the cure for swine flu and never got a chance to document it?

you could have upwards to 6 more deaths on your hands.

one person gets the powers, if we all got them, we'd be a planet of dead asses in no time.

You know if this is the deal that the people you love the most will die. Fucking rip off.
