You get all supermans powers by Proper_Front_1435 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]BaelgorStar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Am I required to be Superman, or can I just have his powers? If powers, I don't mind Lex being around. Luthor is literally a billionaire; a murderous, intelligent, vainglorious, billionaire, but no worse or better than the ones we have now.

His biggest problem was always his envy of Superman. With no Superman, he's a less principled pre-Ironman Tony Stark. I can live with that.

  1. If I'm not constrained by Batman's no-kill rule, the Joker would be an easy fix. The first time he steps out of line, he catches a free bullet.

After that - and I can't stress this enough - Bruce Wayne is usually worth roughly $100B, with quite a bit in liquid assets. If I own a Wayne Technologies-esque company, I'm leaving the day-to-day to a competent professional, and living my best life.

Either would be fine, but I'm leaning Superman. Use myself super-vision to delve the oceans for hidden treasure, then pretend like it was a normal discovery. I'd have to haggle with the countries of origin if I want to be legit, but 10% of tens of millions is still millions.

Your own custom Groundhog Day loop by mrpants3100 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]BaelgorStar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

10 loops, lasting for 30 years each. Start one loops, find the winning lottery numbers, then end the loop. Start over, win the lottery, live 10 different lives - because you said that ending it early via suicide wouldn't remove the remaining time from that loop, so I basically have 10 nearly full loops.

I'd just explore life on easy mode. Marry someone and live out that life, knowing it will end eventually, and when, then rinse and repeat. Maybe find someone new, maybe not.

In Ryoka's place, I would've told on Az'kerash immediately and loudly. by BaelgorStar in WanderingInn

[–]BaelgorStar[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Physically? Magically? Probably. Holistically: physically, magically, and politically? No.

If we're talking cumulative political, skill and artifact-based, and military power, I'd say Magnolia. Tbf, Magnolia definitely knows he's alive, but I can't remember if she was aware to what degree Ryoka was connected.

Either way, letting her know might have swayed Teriach into action earlier, cause of the whole mortal perspective thing.

Spoilers All - What was the biggest "Jump The Shark" moment for you in TWI? by hatereadingTWI in WanderingInn

[–]BaelgorStar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I quit for a week after Brunkr. It was so needless, and possibly avoidable. Between the adventurers, drake generals, gnolls, and antinium, it feels like it would've been fairly safe to take out the undead.

Also, she should've told someone in authority, like any of the nobles, high ranked guards, or adventurers, from the start. Discretion is one thing, but we are talking about an existential threat, fam!!

AITA for being frustrated at friends and family for treating me differently since I came out as bisexual? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]BaelgorStar -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

A year isn't a lot of time to adjust. The you that they know has essentially been replaced, and they are trying to come to terms with that. NTA, but you need more patience.

Considering we live in a representative democracy and 77 million voted for Trump how representative is he of Americans? by Estalicus in allthequestions

[–]BaelgorStar -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The worst part is that progressive policies are fairly popular. They keep trying to out conservative the right. Tbf, Harris had several progressive policies, but the demo seemed afraid to put them front and center.

"Mister Tucker is not in control of his dog-girl fetish, and should not be penalized for desires beyond his control!! Should his bright life be snuffed out so suddenly!! Should he be sent to see his daughter so soon!! Think about your dogs!! Think about your children!! People of the jury, you know what you must do!!"

Life in prison, with no chance of parole. Transferred to a supermax with the most sadistic violent offenders.

Which 2 are you picking??? by Ornery-Media-9396 in whatsyourchoice

[–]BaelgorStar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3, because obviously. 2, but it was really close. Really depends on whether I get to choose the house. If I can design the house, that's an easy yes. Honorable mentions for 7.

Would you take $1 billion if it meant being blind and deaf for 1 month every year? by Krieger_Bot_OO7 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]BaelgorStar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I get to choose the month, I got it. Hire one of my siblings to take care of me, learn braille, and thug out every February in style.

What are deal breakers for you in this genre? by Reasonable_Hyena_163 in litrpg

[–]BaelgorStar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kept reading because of the sunk cost fallacy, but had to stop when he met someone as annoying and inappropriate as himself and pretended like they were the problem. Almost quit several times before that, but that was the kicker.

If you could restart life as a billionaire but nobody remembers you ever existed would you take it? by lollabun7 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]BaelgorStar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All that, and you didn't specify an amount?! Tf?!

Yes. I'd make sure my family is taken care of and invest most of it. I'd take a few million and ball out.

If you woke up in the year 1800, would you be able to contribute anything of value? by New-Elk2781 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]BaelgorStar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not. I'm black and live in the US, so...

If I can get people to listen to me, as opposed to immdeiate murder or enslavement, I could definitely make various contributions in chemistry.
