I would...cause then I know I would always have the upper hand..

I remember this Gilligans Island episode where they ate these little beans that enabled you to read others minds...it really broke apart the castaways on that island. LOL

i love your questions man! in some ways yes because it would be amazing to know what other people really think of you, and you could catch people in lies. on the other hand hell no because idk if i could handle knowing what people really think of me. i know i think some harsh things. ignorance is sometimes bliss, there really are somethings i think i might be better off not knowing.
now controlling time, that is a power i really want to have. i would freeze time right now n walk out of this stupid office go home n sleeeeeeeeeppppppp. :p

only if i was the only one who could... if everyone could it would be just like talking to people and communicating normally... except you could not keep secrets... and that would make life boring

i would want to cuz i would want to know what people really think of me. i am a naive(?) person so knowing the truth would help me a lot in conversations.

I don't know, the truth hurts as it does. Observing body language, eye motion, and behavior can be adequate enough.

I would use it against our "politicians."

No. I don't think so. When I think about what what goes through my mind, and how fast I think- from one thought to the next, and then some random thought pops in there, and then some obscure memory comes up ...etc.- it would be too overwhelming. Too much input! I would probably go insane trying to make sense of it.

I'm with Happiestmferoutthere. I wouldn't want the ability, either. It might give me an edge in some situations, but think how much more cluttered it'd make the minds of those of us with that ability. Plus I think I'd feel terribly disillusioned if I zoned in on someone's mind and couldn't get a signal at all--or if I just got violently angry chatter or insanity.

If I were going to have some sort of mind-related acquisitive ability, I think I'd like to be able to tap into the intellectual content of certain people's minds and know what they know. Think of how handy that'd be! Musical and artistic knowledge and ability. Intellectual brilliance. Amazing financial insights. It'd also be helpful if, on occasion, I could do the same sort of tap-in on someone else's emotions to get a better understanding of what they're feeling. These would be at-will abilities. That is, I could turn on the ability to tap into intellect or emotional content of another person's mind when I wanted it and keep the ability switched off when I didn't desire it.

Since I know mind reading really isnt an option and though I really really want to pick up this power and knowing i can't, instead I learned to read body language and all that comes with human interaction.

I would love to mind read! Afterall, like I posted in the "what is your natural high thread" I said that i love to fuck with peoples mind and with this power i could do exactly that. lol.

depends, are we talking i have no control over it and peoples thoughts just flow into my head like a raging river.

OR

do i have the option of selectivly picking who i want to be listening in on at any given time?

if its the river scenario..no i think that would drive me insane, but if ive got the ability to turn it on and off as well, hells yea.
