Damn it I already had that time travel, of going forward in time at a rate of 1 hour per 60 minutes.

You're not going to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. S*Gaiden will not make long cases, write stunning insights, or sugar coat his words. He is not the man for multi-paragraph eloquence. He is, however, being honest to a fault, and it comes across in his writing.

That is rather disappointing.

I can do that already by saying, "The drinks are on me." Unless....

"Attention world. Unless you want to spend your entire lives in an alcoholic stupor, pay me a gazillion dollars." or "Attention distilleries and breweries, I need 50% of your GROSS sales (not 50% of the net profits) or I make you redundant and useless."

That fits. No way being able to induce drunkenness is a benevolent power. Can only be used for evil.

You could make bad guys drunk! You could go to a person who is trying to commit highly elaborate crime and make them drunk so they are unable to commit that crime!

1 year we had a tornado land in winston. I put the kids in the bathtub with a mattress over them and a cellphone. then I went outside.

it was windy and slightly rainy. a tornado really does sound like a train. there was a weird stillness too. it landed south of silas creek parkway, I think we calculated it at .08 miles from my house. it was magnificent.

I've literally been IN a tornado (well, it went right over the building I was in) when I was in Virginia (EF1 strength)

In Raleigh, I was 0.1 miles from the 2011 Raleigh tornado (EF3 strength) where I lived (in my apartment). Unbeknownst to us, when we moved into our house, we moved into a neighborhood 15 miles away that was hit by teh same tornado. The siding from the house we bought was damaged by the tornado (very minor), and literally 4 houses down the tornado tore off their whole garage. That's where the tornado line ended.

My wife and I went to seattle last october, and the Seattle metropolitan area had their first tornado warning in something like 47 years while we were there. EDIT: The warning turned into a tornado that touched down over the Puget Sound.

I think I do control the (tornado) weather.

But if I could have one superpower, I'd definitely like to be able to teleport anywhere in the universe (or the multiverse)

I feel like being able to Teleport to anywhere in the universe is an overrated power, since so little of the universe is habitable to humans. Most of the spots a human can be and not die are on Earth anyway.
One time, back in 'nam, Sudo was set upon by an entire squadron of charlies. He challenged them all to a game of Pictionary, which he won resoundingly. The charlies were forced to not only surrender the skirmish, but also their world-famous chili recipe, which Sudo sold to Texas for a hefty profit. Sudo is a master of diplomacy.

The problem with teleporting is how do you know that the spot you are teleporting to is empty?

it's never "empty"
for teleporting to work it must either only be workable in a vacuum or always in advance clear up the space you're teleporting to

^this

even if you don't teleport into a solid object, you are always teleporting into something so it's only logical that you aren't really teleporting you are switching spaces with whatever is your target.
