Go into a crowded Game/Comic Book store that you've never been ro before and ask aloud:
What is the best super power to have?

Then add this statement:
I'll buy a months worth of gaming supplies to the person that makes the best case for their answer.

Immortality is the best power to have since with time you can get anything else you want.

Yeah, I was about to say. There are tonnes of superpowers that give you immortality or that count immortality as an inherent part of the power. Just being immortal sucks, you'll get thrown into the sun or something.

Time/space manipulation could grant immortality. As could a high level of magical power. Matter control does it as well. Most characters with these ability are functionally immortal.

How about talking to fish? The fish could teach you how to be immortal.

No, but that one jellyfish might

As to superpowers, I'd say time travel a full knowledge of everything that is in time. Which I guess is almost omniscience. You can go forwards or backwards in time freely so you can obtain anything from any time and affect events so you are effectivly unkillable unless you choose etc... Just get immortalitortality from the future or by your psudo omniscience copy the immortality of annother and boom, unkillable, full reign over the universe!

Immortality in itself is useless.
An immortal can be buried alive in a steel tomb with no means of escape. If ever dug up they would probably be insane but still alive.

Of all the races of the universe the Squats have the longest memories and the shortest tempers. They are uncouth, unpredictably violent, and frequently drunk. Overall, I'm glad they're on our side!

You should also insinuate that the hatred of furries stems from religious fundamentalism.

Those sentences should only be uttered while holding a Bible, and prior to a discussion about the fact that RPGs are a form of demon worship.

Also, maybe a discussion of how Kirk's omnisexuality violates the book of Leviticus.

who would win in a fight: santa clause vs batman

I'd actually give it to santa, because anything batman has, santa can pull out of his magic sack a counter to it. plus, santa can fly on his reindeer, and perform bombing runs on the area batman is at, until its nothing but scorched earth.

After the orbital strikes, Thunderhawk bombardments, Whirlwinds, Vindicators, fusion and starfire and finally Battle Brothers with flamers had finished cleansing the world of all the enemies of Man, we built a monastery in the center of the largest, most radioactive impact crater. We named the planet "Tranquility", for it was very quiet now.

For 40k there is one sure sentence to divide any forum:

Are space marines gay?

I forget who came up with taht during our invasion of the warp back in the day but it's never been topped.


they are just as one sided as asking if space marines are gay. You didn't ask people to formulate questions that would evenly and conveniently divide a room of nerds into two sides for some jolly old verbal back and forth bushwhacking...
