I wish I had the superpower to never need to sleep. I would accomplish so much in the night.
finally a friend!
Yay!
that is an amazing super power! but also I like sleeping so at the same time I would really miss having that time to rest and do noting I wish I had the ability to read minds of people
Yeah that's true, sleeping is very relaxing
Then in business I would have a really good advantage against anyone I was bargaining against because I would instantly see everything that was going on inside their minds
Ooh that's a cool use of that superpower. You would never be surprised if someone gave you a present or threw a surprise party for you.
yeah for sure, because I feel like if you only make use of the super power with none of your own inteligence then it's just a scrub move you know?
But you would also probably be super rich
So you gotta use some of your own intelect with your super power to maximize your abilities yeah that is definitely true. I would make a lot of money
What if you read the mind of someone who was planning something bad? Like an attack or something Would you stop that person?
then I would stop them for sure
Would you personally do it like Batman or would you tell the police
I feel like at that point I would have the moral responsibility to stop them. It's like the clear and present danger thing that the supreme court established If you see a clear and present danger then you have the ability to stop them inside the law SO batman for sure without a doubt
You could be a really good persuader becasue you would know exactly what persuasion tactics worked on them or not You would probably be unstoppable
exactly. I'd know what they want and what their prefferences are so then I'd be able to best play to their desired Yeah for sure. I've thought a lot about it, it would be pretty dang legit
Huh, I used to think that reading minds was a lame superpower but now I think it would one of the best I read an article about Donald Glover and how he claims he has the ability to be good at everything he does.
the question would come down to privacy laws. would the government see a problem with you reading into everyones minds without them even knowing or giving you permission? ooh I'm not one hundred percent sure who that is
Would you tell people you could read minds? If no one knew about it then you wouldn't have to deal with it
but he sounds like a guy who would be good at everything he did, i mean, his name is donald
He's an actor/musician/writer
oh I've never thought about that!
You could be like Raven from That's So Raven
Then you would be able to use it in a much more snealy manner. The other problem at that point is, is that ethical? as being a member of the church we have a responsibility to
Only a few people close to you know about it but not the general public
maintain good ethics
Yeah it's probably not ethical or morally right
oh I love that show! I also loved the spin off cory in the house
Have you seen the new one that stars her two kids? It's called Raven's Home
unless you used it to accomplish good. Then would you be at a "the ends justify the means" tyoe of position? where even though you arae not doing the most legal stuff it's okay because you're accomplishing real, good things
Do we have a responsibility to have good ethics because we are members of the church or because it is the correct thing to do?
I havent seen the new show, seems interesting though
I think "the ends justify the means" mentality is tricky because when the end is good and the means are like super bad then it seems like an okay mindset
well really ethics  is just whether something is right or wrong right? Anf God is always right, and we're trying to be like God so we should try to have good ethics
But there's also really bad means you can do to accomplish a good end and so I think it would depend on the situation Have you seen the show The Good Place?
Yeah I agree it depends on the situation. It's a bunch of different shades of grey that you have to wade through. I think as a general rule I would just be open about it so I never had to live with any guilt of making a wrong decision I haven't seen that show seems like an interesting show?
It's so good. It has a ton of ethics in it But it's a comedy so it's not boring ethics
oh nice. Yeah I always think ethical decisions are very interesting. Like there's really no right or wrong answers in a lot of cases And comedy is always good too. I enjoy laughing a lot hahaha laughing is good for the soul you know?
Sorry, I was braiding my hair so my hands were busy and I couldn't type.
wait wait wait are you a girl hahaha I have only talked to dudes on here
Yeah, it is a bit confusing sometimes. We think right and wrong are absolute but not all the time Haha no I just have really long hair for a guy
oh gothca
Just kidding, yeah I am a girl
I didn't realize that was allowed at BYU oh lol you got me
Hahaha
so what year in school are you?
What is your opinion on the facial hair part of the honor code? As a girl it doesn't affect me so I'm curious I'm a sophomore
oh well it kinda sucks for me because at home I would only shave about once a week so by saturday I would start to have a little bit of a beard you know But here I have to shave like every other day so it's kinda a struggle because it takes like an extra five minutes ALso sometimes it can kinda hurt to shave super often. So that's a struggle too
I don't know from experience but I have brothers so I know what you mean
I am a freshman though haha oh gotcha, How many brothers do you have haha
I think you can get a beard card if you can prove that you need one medically, like your skin is super sensitive when you shave 3
Yeah maybe I should get a beard card then. I i'll just dry shave and get a rash okay, I have five sisters and Two brothers
Maybe you should use shaving cream Wow, that's a big family
yeah but if I dry shave I'll get a bad rash and then I can get a beard card right hahaha
Oh..but is that the ethical thing to do? Insert thinking emoji
And yeah it was fun growing up with such a big family. Lots of friends all the time true treu That is really sneaky to turn it back around like that
Are you the oldest or youngest or in the middle
no, it wouldn't be ethical, which is why I haven't done it :P
Haha, you were the one who said it first
I am child six out of the eight
Well, it was good talking to you but I have to go up to Salt Lake right now. Have a good night!
okay well have fun? you too!!
