This is one of the more normal dirt owl posts.

Real question is, who you playing as?

i would rather be in command of a bunch of robots/nanobot swarms while ensconced safely inside of a Cool Mecha, but basically the same thing in principle

[–] LGOrcStreetSamurai@hexbear.net 2 points 3 hours ago

The megazoid style robot is a timeless classic . Nanobot swarm is a bit too flashy and Hollywood for my tastes.

Everyday I wake up and have to live with the fact I’m a not an abhorrent grotesque leviathan with the capability to destroy the world. Shit sucks so much.

It's more of an "I cast meteor shower" fantasy but the spirit is the same

[–] SupFBI@hexbear.net 12 points 5 hours ago

I'd prefer to be a phantom. Visiting billionaires and the ruling class in their sleep. Reaching into their chests to grasp their hearts, squeezing until the heart is mush.

That's fear. That's something they can't hide from or use force against.

I've often fantasized about turning into some kind of avenging seraphim and blasting Washington DC with beams of heavenly retribution.

[–] Edie@hexbear.net 8 points 5 hours ago

Nah. I just want to be a cat.

I yearn to be the largest of nephews.

[–] TrashGoblin@hexbear.net 16 points 7 hours ago

All the fucking time. I just want to be huge and go fucking apeshit.

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 8 points 6 hours ago

Is this not a common thing?

Because I've wanted to do this for, like, ever

[–] Mickmacduffin@hexbear.net 7 points 5 hours ago

You're bigger than something. Go stomp around the nearest city

I'm more of a Reality Warper, but it definitely manifests this energy sometimes.

[–] Carcharodonna@hexbear.net 4 points 5 hours ago

I seriously think about this all the time

[–] EndMilkInCrisps@hexbear.net 6 points 5 hours ago

Yeah I wish I could throw every fucking billionaire yacht onto the moon.

[–] Bureaucrat@hexbear.net 6 points 6 hours ago

God I wish I had a writhing mass of tentacles for legs

For what it's worth at one year of solid weight training you can do this for most things you encounter. At like five years you can probably actually do this. I dunno. I never manage to stay consistent for that long. Last time I was good about lifting consistently I was able to rip appart a bit of house doing some renovation work and I had to try not to giggle as I bench pressed a kitchen sink out of it's fitting.

How many years before I can shoot lasers out of my mouth

[–] CrawlMarks@hexbear.net 2 points 3 hours ago

A year but it has to be a specific kind of gym. A clown college is your best bet

Literally every single day

My power fantasies are mostly banal

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 7 points 7 hours ago

I'm like Godzilla but the power of friendship parts and less Evangelion style horror of Shin Gojira.

[–] context@hexbear.net 7 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

i thought that was basically the whole point of playing simcity

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 9 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Omg you used to summon the giant monster on purpose too?!
