If you had superpowers

What superpower would you choose?
I would have that power that when you eat bread, you get drunk. That's technically not a superpower I suppose but its still pretty cool!

If this counts, I'll chose something called a Death Note, those of you who've watched anime will know. Death Note is pretty much a book with infinite pages, you write down a person's first name and surname, think about her face as you write it down, and 40 seconds later the person dies of heart attack. Alternatively, you can write down the cause of death you wish the person to have to avoid suspicion.
I'd use it to rule the world

Aquaman is a bad-ass! Nobody likes him though, he is really underappreciated.

Lol. It's just one of the most top rated animes. Not for kids, in Japan it is 17+ (adults). And yeah the protagonist tries to use it to bring justice but ends up becoming a dictator and killing everyone who is an opposition.. There's lot of anime with disturbing real life content.
And that's not a villain power, it's an anti-hero, using the wrong mean to reach a good end

Aquaman stinks of fish, that's why nobody likes him.
I've recently grown rudimentary legs and am now making the move from water to land.

I'd like the superpower that Rich Hall once described on an episode of QI, of being able to see into the future but only by a few seconds. Then I could say "gesundheit" and make people sneeze.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

That would be a pretty good power for confronting criminals! Hard to accurately fire a gun when you are sneezing I would imagine.

Of course, it would only work if they were going to sneeze anyway. So if you're going to fight crime with it, take pepper.
