Would you prefer supervision, supersmell, superfeel, superhearing, or supertaste? And what about the other senses of the body that are not part of the quintet? Think balance, temperature, and even the ability to feel where all your body parts are (you can close your eyes, wave your hands around, and touch your knee)
For me, I would pick supervision. It would be really cool to see better in the dark, have built-in camera zoom, and see in higher detail.
For me, I would pick supervision.
A dinner of the monkey’s paw curls, you are now supervised at all times.
Might not be too bad depending on the type of supervision.
If it’s like a personal butler, I’m all for it.
I’m definitely picking super vision. I’d even settle for perfectly normal vision.
Just thinking the same thing as I had to put my glasses on to read this thread.
There’s also superpain, but I don’t think many would want that…
Someone’s BDSM session is about to reach new heights.
There are 8 billion people in the world, “anyone” doesn’t apply to anything.
ok
Super hearing, to the point of echolocation (Which apparently some blind people can actually do in a very basic form as a learned skill!?)
Maybe you could save Foggy Nelson
Now it’s just avocado at law.
Assuming supertaste enables me to make broccoli taste like Pad Thai. I’ll go with that one.
If it only heightens the sense - then probably less likely to pick that one.
It makes you super tasty. Unfortunately, once the cannibals learn about you, you’ll be forced to live on the run.
What? Broccoli tastes good though…

Considering I’ve got sensory sensitivity to almost all of that (yay being ND) any further would sound like hell.
I would enjoy the enhanced ability to feel hunger cues appropriately or have a superhuman ability to interpret and react to my inner feelings, beyond even neurotypical capacities.
I really need supervision.
No, really, I am a danger to myself and others. Please keep an eye on me
I have really good hearing and it honestly sucks sometimes because you can’t really not hear some things when you really, really, really wish you couldn’t.
With super-vision at least I can close my eyes.
Spunds like you need Super Hearing Pro. Now with the additional upgrade of in built ear-plugs.
I feel that. I never leave home without my earplugs.
Like Mel Gibson in What Women Want?
Like me in Cheap Basement Suite With Paper Thin Walls and Gooner Roommate.
Supervision for sure. No more glasses!
just give some rich doctor guy thousands of dollars to shine lasers into you’re eyeballs and you’re good to go
As a guy who wears glasses, heightened vision would be awesome.
Super hearing would be great, too. I’d love to be able to hear all the nuances of music and be able to hear it without turning it up.
Vision makes the most sense for something useful and marketable
None. I’d be happy with seeing and hearing properly.
Super hearing. So I can actually hear what people are saying in cafes
You could catch so many top secret agents discussing their top secret plans!
Depends if I can turn it on and off at will, or if it’s on all the time. Even super vision would likely result in a sensory overload, even seeing the inside of your eyelids when you close your eyes!
I have stronger than average taste and smell. Do not recommend. Various things taste pretty awful, I’m more sensitive to smells and even things I like can become overwhelming.
I used to be able to see better in the dark than anyone I know, but that has faded with age. I’ve also always been somewhat colorblind so fixing that might be nice. I would also fix my hearing being kinda wonky (as in basically useless whenever multiple things are producing sound at once).
I’m tempted to want some kind of better balance or electromagnetic perception (though that one could be awful for the same reason I wouldn’t want to see much beyond what I do on the visible light spectrum since UV radiation and infrared could be a wall of noise).
