general If you could do anything what would it be?

[HereComesTom 2,253]

It's funny, for a few years now, the question "What would you do if you could do anything?" has been going through my head---it's like the arc words of a TV show or something.

 

Usually I answer with something within the laws of physics, but still ambitious, like making a killer app for smartphones or something (I have an idea for a card game that could have people laughing out loud).

 

Once in a while, though, it's something more near-sighted, like "get over this stupid sinus infection".

[Lord Bradley 1,319]

Gain Immortality, and watch. Watch as the world progresses, and inevitably ends. Then, wait for another world to being anew, and watch again...

[Tanner 186]

Escape this world and travel to Equestria and share the wonders of human music... and probably scar them for life with dark songs.     

[frecklesareblooming 225]

I'd make all of my OTPs canon.

[Invincible 2,091]

If i could i would create my own universe with it's own physics and rule over it (for fun)

[Measure Theory 44]

Wow these are all great things. I have some faith in humanity again.

[Swift Marquis 327]

I would want just a little, tiny thing, i would like to make everyone i know and see and talk to have a smile on their face and i would give them a hug :3   

[gamecubeguy214 2,511]

Summon Wii U, Wired Fightpad, and Smash Bundles, even though they don't exist. That way, people can get a Wii U and Smash without having to pay anything.

[Tee Kay 29]

Start a business, employ all my unemployed friends, take over the world.

[Tesla 167]

Rid my mum of cancer and any pain she's going through inside

And make her happy again

 

Find my real father

[Cimarronboy 248]

invent an interplaner remote and use it to turn my fanfics into reality.... otherwise maybe make world peace something more than a fictitious concept. 

[Elysia 269]

A list of selfish things outside of the "save the world-perspective"

I would finally recover fully.

That would lead to me being able to finish school, which is also something I'd do

Then I would find a nice apartment in the city I want to spent my life in and move there with my girlfriend.

Just like, have a good life, you know?

[An Unknown Pony. 370]

Drive around the world and take amazing photographs

[Violet Storm 126]

Apologies for being selfish, but I would be back in the arms of my lover.
I miss her.

[Moony the Cat 3,702]

I would make all the things i have in my head.

Make all the movies i dreamed of making, all the Video Games i wanted too, make sequels to very old games, which i think deserve sequels and just in general being happy 

 

And as a second thing make every living thing a vegetarian, so that nobody has to kill something anymore, reduce the amount of living things, so that enough plants are there to eat ( im not killing anyone, but i will watch out, that nobody gets to much kids ) , than realize that people still dont want to let someone over them rule and see them fighting against the things i do...so i have to change them even more, until i realize that nobody is like them anymore, and everyone is just a copy of how i would like to have the world and everybody would be the same.

 

I couldnt live with the thoughts, of killing every personality just because i want to have a better world and probably kill myself.Or create my own world, where i can live alone forever.

 

Wow, that got dark very quick 

 

Lets just stick with the movie making idea,okay?

Take money away from the evilest richest percent, and give it to the other percents.

 

Also, cure world hunger and wish for unlimited wishes, unlimited genies, and eternal life.

[SilyGeny 369]

I'd twerk on top of Mount Everest...

 

No but really I think I'd get me signed to a record label, I'm done with trying to get noticed by myself

Funny you should say that:  the game I have in my signature was built with the idea in mind that other people would be able to use it to build their own games; it has an editor and everything.  I'm not sure a game like mine, a platformer/shmup with the ability to make NPCs to speak to is what you're looking for, but it might be worth a look.

 

Why am I bringing this up here?  Well, remember how, earlier in this thread, I said that the question "what would you do if you could do anything?" kept coming up in my mind?  A kind of unspoken assumption in that question is that, sometimes, the thing a person wants the most is actually within his or her reach.  I built this game partly because i was hoping the editor would put some wishes within reach of some people who wanted to make their own fangames.  I don't know if you'll be one of them, but I'd be trilled if it turned out you were!

[El Duderino 879]

I would legalize pot... er... I meant to say I would end world hunger.

 

I would actually get rid of corruption in government. Make sure our leaders actually care and do what is right. Also no more political parties. George Washington warned against them, and he was right.

 

I would also like to have a successful music career.

I guess I would free myself from worldly desires. Maybe I'd just be better off not wanting things for the rest of my life.

[Sekr Gray 520]

The ability to imbue immortality, and be immortal myself (non-aging, of course). Would love to be able to stick around for a couple more centuries, and I'd love to have my other half join me for that long journey.

[CuriousPony 157]

Hmm... well, anything in the world gives out a lot of options, but I'm worried that something I choose could cause bigger, unknown problems in the future. So... um... instead of giving out a way I'd change the world (cuz there are many things that need to be done, but I don't know how to just fix them), I think I'll stick to what I'd do in my own little life.

 

Realistically (or... at least, more realistically), I'd like to become a YouTuber. Not one that's super duper famous or anything. I'd just like enough people who like what I do to give me a feeling that I'm a source of fun and entertainment for a decent amount of people.

 

Unrealistically... I kinda want wings. Wouldn't that be something?

[Nightfall Gloam 18,254]

I think if I could do anything I'd:

 

• Rid the world of all its evils
• Cure cancer
• Explore alternate universes... Of course, once I find the EqG universe, I'm likely to continue visiting there, and I think you can easily guess why

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,214]

What would I do....you know, there is something simple I would do. I would accept myself for who I am, fully. I would erase all of my anxieties, worries, and pointless self pressuring. If I could get rid of all of that nonsense, I could be so much happier and interact with others much more. Hopefully that doesn't seem selfish or anything. 

[rarity1 461]

I'd be rich and never work again.
