Wish granted! However and unfortunately, now you also have two large wings protruding from your back, feathers instead of hair, and a beak instead of lips. When you try to talk, you squawk!![]()

Did you ever watch the Twilight Zone episode where this genie granted wishes which always turned out to be detrimental in some way?I told em to shapeshift, but does anybody listen? Nope.
You could use that power to find employment in law enforcement. It would save them time from having to use a lie detector.
Why sad face? There is a lack of compassion in the world, yet all the superheroes have compassion for the victims otherwise they wouldnât react to their blight. Therefore, while I consider myself a compassionate person, I would choose to have more.Compassion
Sad face because I agree with you. Great lack of compassion, must one be superhuman to have it? Maybe.Why sad face?

Yes, I think one must be superhuman, especially in todayâs world.Sad face because I agree with you. Great lack of compassion, must one be superhuman to have it? Maybe.
True! Musical abilities do sometimes resemble superpowers.Play piano like Oscar Peterson.
Much more preferable than Chicken-Man.
Your question reminded me of this scene with this question.Why sad face? There is a lack of compassion in the world, yet all the superheroes have compassion for the victims otherwise they wouldnât react to their blight.

Getting stuck in one of those shapes would be a nightmare.Shape-shifting, so I could become any anthropomorphic animal of my choosingâŚ

There are days when I don't want to deal with anyone.

How does being a normal human prevent one from being predominantly a compassionate person?Sad face because I agree with you. Great lack of compassion, must one be superhuman to have it? Maybe.
Itâs a âdog eat dogâ world, itâs a me, me, me world, itâs a world where people want the homeless arrested, itâs a world where juveniles are tried as adults, a world where immigrants live in terror, itâs a world where we sit on our butts and watch people die in wars, and complain we canât find our favorite cereal while people in war torn nations starve, a world where woman can still be killed for the slightest infraction, itâs a world where compassion is lacking.How does being a normal human prevent one from being predominantly a compassionate person?
We should try to remember to look in the mirror before we judge, then remember:Itâs a âdog eat dogâ world, itâs a me, me, me world, itâs a world where people want the homeless arrested, itâs a world where juveniles are tried as adults, a world where immigrants live in terror, itâs a world where we sit on our butts and watch people die in wars, and complain we canât find our favorite cereal while people in war torn nations starve, a world where woman can still be killed for the slightest infraction, itâs a world where compassion is lacking.
Normal human men and women are inhumane. Normal human men and woman are overloaded with the inhumanity that surrounds them.
God should scrap the human race and go with the apes. They are better behaved; they pick bugs off each other-now thatâs compassion.
Judging Christ --what a concept! Could we be morphing ourselves into gods now?Yes, I think one must be superhuman, especially in todayâs world.
What makes me really curious is a Bible reference, at least I think itâs from the Bible. When JC is questioned about Mary using oil on his feet instead of selling the oil and helping the poor, JC replies; âthere will always be poor among usâ. Or something like this, my memory is so vague anymore.
This seems to be a lack of compassion, and displays JCâs more than human side. Making compassion an even more needed superpower.
