I think the sleeper is “talk to plants”. Remember how Aquaman used to be the joke in the Justice League? And I’m not well versed in comics, but Poison Ivy comes to mind as being pretty powerful.
I can already talk to plants. It’s not very satisfying though
Fuckin’ monkey’s paw shit. 🤣
“You can now talk to plants.”
“Cool! What do they say?”
“Oh no, you can’t understand them. You can just speak to them.”
“They also still can’t understand you.”
“become a dragon” becomes “become a dragon in a dragon deez nuts joke”
Nah, if anything talk to plant is pretty weak. Poison Ivy can control plants, which is significantly stronger. Control plants let’s you force them to grow big and grapple people, or produce particular toxins in people’s faces, etc. Talk to plants lets you ask plants very politely to do something, but they are still just normal plants, and can just say no.
Plants can’t say no because they can’t talk. But you can talk to them.
“Become a dragon” is right there, so why would anyone even choose anything else!?
You mean a *dead dragon?
When my cat yawns I want to stick a finger in his mouth, and dragon talons are far too big for that.
As a dragon you could have a pet Tiger. Your talon will fit in their mouth.
Especially, like, flight?
What would force someone to want to fly and NOT be a dragon?
It would also cover strength. And courage, considering you’re a freaking dragon! And depending on the type of dragon, poison breath could be covered too.
I mean if I have to keep living, can’t I at least kill then slowly and painfully?
I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels permanently suicidal.
Become a dragon that hunts billionaires to make a horde of wealth for yourself. I’d watch that.
I’ll take the “talk to plants” potion since it changes LITERALLY NOTHING, and I don’t want any additional powers myself.
Except now you’re wracked with crippling guilt every time you mow the lawn, chop up veggies for dinner, or walk by some poor little scrawny weed growing out of a crack in the sidewalk.
Except plant never developed language or even neurons to process thought. You drink the “Talk to plants” potion and the world is just as silent as it was before.
It was recently discovered that plants do talk to each other. It’s still being studied.
That is really old news. Whole forests do this. But that’s still not talking.
If that’s what a “talk” to plants drink does, I’d love to get a “talk” to humans drink. Imagine the psychology experiments I could set up if I could understand the subconscious pheromone, posture, subvocal, and other various poorly understood methods of communication!
Ok thats a half empty glass of sunshine if I ever saw one. How you guna spend your time conversing with something that’ll live less than a year, shit out a bunch of seeds, then die? Why not find out what the Oaks, Cypresses’ses’, Hemlocks and Maples have to say about the day America was conceived, birthed, crawled, walked, flew, first fuck last fuck. Shit I’d retire and walk the trails listening to stories from something that has expierienced 3 life spans.
These kind of posts always have weird ones like Poison Breath.
Why would I want that? To kill people? Mustard gas is easy to make and I’d just get arrested anyways.
The only reasonable use I can think of is if you wanted to start a pest control company… woo?
Instant death may be useful if it’s like the Death Note, or else you’d also just get arrested.

At some point an investigator figures out that you’re the only person that’s connected to all the deaths, however remotely. As the years go by, you’ve done lunch together a few times and are on a first name basis. Their efforts are fruitless, and they can’t prove anything. But now you have an FBI surveillance van permanently parked outside your home, and that investigator keeps coming around.
Anyone can talk to plants,it’s getting them to talk back that’s tricky
just eat some of their cousins (i know nothing about biology) then look at them for long enough and I’m sure you’ll hear something
- Drink the purple one
- Jump off a cliff
- Realize I took the wrong purple one
- Still relaxed though
- survive an crawl up again, relaxed
- drink the right purple one
- jump off the cliff again
- realize what flight actually stands for
- still relaxed though
Takes “always relax” potion
I adore this movie. But not enough has changed to completely date this masterpiece, and I have very conflicted feelings about that.
Edit: for anyone in food-service or retail instead of IT, watch “Waiting” instead.
Where’s the potion which lets me do two chicks at the same time man.
Ah, the million dollar potion…
Damn I gotta watch that again
Whats the movie?
Office Space, created and directed by Mike Judge who created King of the Hill and Bevis and Butthead
Tsk. Oooo, no can do. We’re gonna need you to come in on Saturday and fill out those TPS reports. Also Sunday, too.
my furry ass saw “become a dragon” and didn’t even read the rest
I choose the dragon one because I can get more out of that than the others here.
I’d be worried that I couldn’t change back. I’d choose flight, since none of the other dragon stuff feels too useful besides just being strong.
Maybe they’re all secretly traps. You can’t change back from being a dragon; if you choose flight, you just start floating upwards and can’t come down; you’re not immune to your own poison breath; courage just makes you incredibly over-confident in your own abilities…

Awww who’s a good dragon
pets the said good dragon
Dragon for sure. It’s getting increasingly embarrassing to be a human…
Free fire resist, flight, and fire breath? Count me in.
DnD dragon, get shapechange for free
Yeah, it’s strength, flight, maybe poison breath all in one and you can go back to human anytime. Dragon has literally no downsides!
I mean… I don’t know how much dragons eat
My family watching me eat 2 whole roasted chickens, 5kg of potatoes, and drink a whole pot of soup, all in 10 seconds:
Well it doesn’t specify dragon type/color. Not every dragon has an innate alternate form ability, so hopefully you get one of those.
Age is also an issue. Depending on how old you are, you’ll probably be somewhere between young to young adult. If you’re at least 50 you can hit young adult. This means you’re pretty limited in a lot of things, and if you have your innate spellcasting at all, it’s gonna be pretty limited.
If you’re one of the dragon colors that doesn’t get innate alternate form, you’re probably gonna have to hide for the better part of a century just to get old enough to have some decent spells.
So there are downsides, if temporary ones, to the dragon option. Still, it’s probably the best choice, yes.
There’s wonderful cliffs around my city, l dream of being a dragon and sleeping on the cliff basking in the sun all day
Hoard then eat enough gold and other valuable materials and you become a god.
instant death for sure
