Just something silly I was surprised to not see here already, if you can give reasoning for the choice all the better.

For me it has to be teleportation...the commute to work alone would be worth any of the other ones. Though all of them would be fun for many reasons.

Invisibility sounds fun especially after seeing Hallow Man but if I can't turn back to visible... nah I think I'll pass on that.

Flight would save on gas like teleporting and man going that fast would be a rush. I don't think NORAD would be too thrilled though. Besides why fly if you can teleport? On the other hand I could pick up people I don't like and drop them from 3000 feet in the air. Course I would want to fly that high because it gets real cold.

Telepathy would be useful because then I could tell if a girl would go on a date with me before I actually asked her out and made a fool of myself. But what if I couldn't help but read people's minds? Imagine trying to drive down the free way or being in a stadium or somewhere with lots of people. You probably couldn't even hear your own conscienceness, even if the ability was only in line of sight. That and I bet some people have some pretty twisted thoughts running through their heads - tmi.

Teleportation would make flying obsolete. But then all my friends would want me to take them places. And I wonder what would happen if you accidentally teleported into a wall or some other object - according to physics matter cannot occupy the same space and time.

Being able to shape my body in anyway is VERY tempting. Lets just say I could get real kinky with that. But what if its like crossing your eyes too much? What if you get stuck in some god aweful shape and can never return to normal? I'm physically abnormal enough.

I could really use that finder ability. I do get lost easily and I could use it to find treasure or atlantis or something cool like aliens lurking amongst us. But we have GPS so close enough.

Passing through solids would be cool because then I could rob fort knox or peer into the women's shower at the gym. But what would keep me from passing through the ground and getting sucked to the core of the earth? Gravity is a bitch sometimes.

While I deffinately am a seeker of knowledge there are just somethings I don't want to know. I mean think about it. Ever time you touched someone (which would also be a sort of telepathy by the way) you'd know their deepest, darkest, sickest, most perverted thoughts AND experiences. It would be an effective way to black mail people though.

So I picked telekinesis. That way I wouldn't have to get up to get a beer from the fridge and I could do cool things like undress and dress myself, redirect my pee to make a bank shot, make a magickal luggee, "accidentally" undo cutie's bra at random, stop bullets and disarm people amung many other things. That and every time my dog gets loose all I'd have to do is use my powers to bring her back inside. Better not let the neighbors see though. They may cry witch and try to have me burned at the stake.

Ah yeah and I could still pick up and drop people I didn't like. Or at least give them a nasty shove or something.
