I choose extremely high bilarubin levels
 
I'm smart enough so I'd pick healing. Not sure I would even want to be marginally smarter. It seems that being really high IQ and being an arrogant douchebag often go together. I couldn't imagine the arrogance of being leagues above the next smartest human.

For people that choose super intelligence, especially that ridiculously high, is failing to comprehend what miserable life they might have chose.
1. You can never have an intellect simulating chat with any living person ever again.
2. Even the smartest people in the world right now would be so dumb to you that you might even despise them, then eventually yourself for being unable to relate.

Human interaction is essential for healthy living and mental health. With 500 IQ, you won't get much human interactions, it's will be like 100 IQ person trying to teach a worm how to communicate back. The mindset and wavelength will be too different to maintain a meaning conversion.

Very good points.
 
Yeah, I would say superintelligence. As many people have stated, with an IQ of 500, you’d probably figure out teleportation or at least a MUCH faster way to travel.

I see, makes sense. Yeah I googled a few things it says 500 is not possible or it's redundant I think or meaningless as you say.

its not meaningless man. we know what you mean when you say it.
 
Teleportation. But I also just want to be invisible sometimes

very strange assumptions here man...... i don't think any of this is how it would be at all.

a person who is arrogant can practice humility and grow in humility just like any other person and eventually leave it behind...... its not as if these things transcend choice and transformation.

i would take the IQ in a heartbeat.
 
Healing, I’d imagine that’s mean an extremely longer life, and without the constant worry of bodily harm, I’d imagine you could get really smart , and not have to be so isolated in your intelligence

no need to assume intelligence would isolate one imo. that seems unnecessarily deterministic.

but it TS means regeneration means long life i might change my vote depending on how long.

I think there is a strong likely hood of feeling isolated, especially when having to explain yourself to others far less intelligent than you, and having to walk them through everything, and then rinse wash and repeat, while you probably have bigger problems to worry about

i think there is no likelihood at all for isolation unless the person chooses not to develop themselves as a human being in any way at all...... and that would not be very intelligent of them.

Fair enough I guess, I feel like someone that smart would feel like they are constantly interacting with children, and I hear that complaint from people who really only deal with children, that they yearn to interact with more adults. I’d imagine it’d be like that all the time, and you’d have no one to turn to.
That being said someone so smart might be able to acknowledge these things and make strides to work these issues out, but then we also have to wonder what kind of intelligence you get? Something measured by just IQ? Isn’t really the full picture of intelligence. Either way I’m still going with healing, just for the jokes I could use on my friends about how old they are getting.
 
I think the contrary. If you were super intelligent, i will assume your intelligence equates to everything and not just math,physics,critical thinking type stuff. There are many forms of intelligence, that are all controlled in different parts of the brain. I think your intelligence would allow you to to be able to communicate with all sorts of people on all sorts of intellectual frequencies and not just other people of like intelligences
 
Regeneration. I can finally do all the dumbass shit I used to do in my youth and then some without worrying about death or lengthy hospital stays. And I'll never get sick, catch any diseases, or get hungover. I could do Jackie Chan stunts every day and not pay for it.
 
Regeneration would make you essentially immortal. No thanks. Teleportation would probably be the most fun, and intelligence the most practical. Probably intelligence.
