    Gravel ofc. Just imagine being able to provide every construction site on earth with cheap gravel with no cost at all. I’d be the first billionaire on earth who didn’t fuck other people over to be absurdly rich.

      Thought the same thing but it doesn’t say how the gravel is obtained. I assume there’s still going to be transportation costs and “life” could be as short as how long it takes to be smothered by a heap of free gravel. I am suspicious.

    3 for sure. Depending on how teleporting into other objects works, and how fast you can spam it, you could get some serious work done with a power like that.

    Gravel is expensive if you’re doing a lot of landscaping. I’ll supply all of the entrepeneurs in the area and make a fortune.

      For real, free gravel for life is the choice. You can start a gravel business and sell that shit. According to Google a 100ft driveway can cost upwards of $3k to gravel.

    Would need the details on some of these.

    • The empty container depends on the definition of “container” and “empty”. If a house is a container for people it’s easy to rob when empty. If you have to be looking at an airless vacuum it’s dogshit. Otherwise I’m sure you could make money with a creative gambling scheme.
    • Gravel for life, like an infinite bucket full? Or the typical “for life” shit where you just get one trailer full dumped in your driveway every year for 60 years. Probably an overrated pick.
    • Teleporting is almost certainly the best pick. Is there a cool down? Do you keep momentum? Can it be in any direction? Does it take the same effort as walking? If you can spam it at the speed thought, you’re now flying. Even with a CD you could be a world class athlete in a lot of sports. Or just do simple stuff like reach a high shelf or teleport out of handcuffs.

    A manga artist would find a way to make one of these the most op power in their entire universe. “I can fill anyones lungs with gravel with just a thought” or " i teleported 5 cms into you and severed a nerve in your spine that paralyzes you for life"

    Number 7 might let you cheat at some carnival/gambling games. Which of these 1000 boxes has the million dollars in it? The one I can’t see through, of course!

    Teleporting 7 inches still sounds kinda badass, would be very useful in a fight or you could just stand and repeatedly teleport to recreate that OK GO video.

    I feel as though there is money making opportunity in 8. The language is dead? Nobody alive who can speak the language, so I’d have more or less free reign to profit off of being the only person who could speak it.

      Sure but selling gravel has instant world wide business opportunities. Gravel is the better money making option.

        Best case scenario, I find some linguist willing to pay me to help with their understanding of the language. Worst case scenario, I’m the only person who can speak this language.

        Also, if nothing else, I could impress people by being the only person in the world who speaks a specific language.

    I shall abuse these toaster powers thoroughly and for my own amusement. Every toaster on the planet will go off at the same time!
