That's too easy. I predict it will be 6 numbers all between 1 and 59 inclusive, and none of them repeating. What sort of superpower is that? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I could go shopping without queues. Drive to town without idiots trying to rear mount my car. Walk my dogs (and this is my particular bugbear) without c***s letting their dogs off the leads while they f**k about 200 metres away glued to the phones. Sit in my garden without having to listen to someone else's radio, or them chatting or some utter bellend revving the shit out of their car a mile away. What is it with people who cannot exist for more than 3 seconds without making their presence known? Any tips for avoiding constant interruptions from other people while I wait on that power being bestowed upon me will be warmly received. If you hadn't retired so early maybe you could afford a house further away others. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Would like to be able to recite the first three letters of the alphabet backwards.

scottsdad Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Just heard that @oaksoft's neighbours have started a GoFundMe to support his work on travelling to another universe. Nothing listed about the ability to travel back, though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Failing that there are several episodes of DS9 that make it look like child's play. Where there is a will there is a way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullerene Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Actually I have totally changed my mind on this. We should help Oaksoft as much as possible. I have been researching this more - become something of an expert actually. Anyway, because of conservation of matter or equivalence or something like that, every time Oaksoft goes to that other universe, his Doppelganger (thanks Spellchecker) from that universe will come here. Also because of sciency stuff, if Oaksoft hates people then it is almost certain his Doppelganger will actually love people. "Queues, traffic, noise - that's just life, m8". I think it could be great for everyone- including Oaksoft. We need to get to work on this. Oh dear, I am beginning to sound like Oaksoft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
