Would power destroy you?
« on: April 20, 2008, 08:46:47 PM »
Lets be honest here. So many paths lead to the dark side.
I'm afraid it takes a saint to be a Jedi. I would ultimately succumb to the lure of the dark side.

All it would take is a couple of sleepless nights from the wild wookie parties in the apartment upstairs and I know, lightning would be shooting from my hands whilst I shout, "Power! Unlimited power!"

After a hard day of Jedi training, getting cut off in my speeder, the first rude merchant would start choking. "I find your lack of courtesy, disturbing."

And the blond at the bar who won't give me the time of day, I would end up waving my hand and saying, "That Jedi is really cute! Lets go someplace more...private."

Yeah verily, I would be Darth Da Mannn.

I can't say I disagree.  I know it's wrong.   :-)

Nah, not me. After I got rid of off of the liberals, I'd use my powers for good.  :-)

Would it destroy me, no.  My enemies, though, yes.... :evillaugh:

I would be a dictator in a matter of minutes.  I can not ever have any power higher than basic mommy stuff.

Power would only enforce my natural ability to be discreet and unassuming.  I could never bring myself to lord over anyone.  You would never know I was about to kill you.

I don't actually *have* super powers, so my answer might be different if I did.

I've never been good at hypothetical questions.

Which is why he is in his grave prematurely.

Yeah, I think the new incarnation of Superman, as a teenager, is a fag.

If I had absolute power, I would give both clintons the red ass, and then retire to a nice island.  After a while of rest I would become a lawyer just because no one would get the joke but me.
