Pretty much the title. I've been watching more realistic super hero shows like The Boys and Invincible. The reoccurring themes is that with great power comes great immorality.
I think it's easy for us normies to respect other people and their property because there are clear consequences for violating social norms. But what would the average person do if they had super powers?
This is basically the premise of the show The Boys.
I know that if I had powers, I would be a straight up self serving villain. No question.
Does Wowbagger the Infinetly Prolonged ring a bell?
I'd mabye steal things i dunno
True, but you know what would really make them go out the window? If I were invisible.
Yaknow I just thought of one technicality that would make time stopping a very miserable super power. What if you are also paused. Or what is the physics of paused time. Like do you need time to make stuff move. If that's also the case wouldn't your clothes stop you from moving in paused time. That's not even mentioning air is also mass. That needs to move to let you move about. Edit: also if mass doesn't require time to move. What about energy. Would everything feel like it has a shit ton more momentum than normal. How tiring would walking be.
