The terrifying truth about Superpowers

Here is my problem with teleportation though. Everytime you teleport wouldn't you die by ceasing to exist only to have an exact copy of yourself reapear in the desired location? I mean you would technically still be alive but it wouldn't be you anymore. Am I the only one terrified of the prospect of this? Seriously it keeps me awake at night.

I started this thread to discus the less talked about major downfalls of superpowers. Imagine if the emo kid on the street had regeneration powers, he would just be out there all day cutting himself and more importantly not dying the way god intended him to.... painfully

    I was thinking last night about how any superhero who has a real job at the same time would probably get their ass fired for missing too much work. Like, how often does Clark Kent mysteriously disappear from work? It's gotta be at the very least a weekly thing.

    Wow, man, you just blew my mind.

    I'm going to have to live the rest of my life with the weight this thread put on me.

    Did this really need an entire thread? Like, you posted this exact thing in the superpowers thread already.

    I actually sent a long email to Mully a while back on why time travel would be instant death even if you could do it.

    I've always thought that Clark Kent's choice of glasses as a disguise made him look like a chav.

    Hey new guy, welcome to our Forums. Please read our Rules Thread.

    Also, it's not really cool to make duplicate threads, especially if it's just to get more attention.

    Thanks!
