Same here. Animals are so much nicer than some people. One of my favourite quotes is 'Feed a dog for 3 days, and they'll remember you for 3 years. Feed a human for 3 years, and they'll remember you for 3 days.'

Final score:

#20

The power to transform into a giant Ultra Warrior (AKA be a host to an Ultra, like Shin Hayata), which includes other abilities such as being really tall (40m), Shooting laser beams out of everywhere, take down enemy forcefields, lift 200,000 (or more depending on the Ultra) tons, the iconic Specium ray, flight, speed, and intelligence. I would sacrifice my ability to worry and obsess over minuscule things because it only causes me stress and despair. all in all this feels like a good deal!

Some abilities I forgot: Generating spears and other weapons out of energy, psychokinesis, excellent senses, and size change (In my ultra form, I could shrink back to human size and still stay an Ultra). BTW this ability is not all mine, as I have to be merged with an Ultra warrior. Together we would fight as one for the peace of the Earth for all time! EDIT: Forgot to mention I can just casually beat the s**t out of monsters even more powerful than Godzilla, usually in less then three minutes. Also, many Ultras use up a vast amount of energy in Earths atmosphere, which means they can only fight for three minutes. I spend most of my time in my human form, when I need to transform to fight, I use a device called a Beta Capsule to transform. Also, not all Ultras have this three-minute weakness. Some have protectors over their color timer so that they don't use up all their energy. It will still blink if im in mortal danger. Ideally mine would have protectors but I'll take what I can get C:

Hey there, Pandas! My name is Diana (though some prefer to refer to me as Diane, Deanna, and even Liana sometimes), and I am a Community Post Moderator Lead for Bored Panda. As my position title states, I am one of the people (employed Pandas for bamboo) over here who work with the community side of things on this website to ensure all is well, and while at that, I also help various creators and artists get recognition for the incredible work they do by connecting them to a large worldwide audience. Other than that, outside of work, you can find me brewing a nice cup of coffee, making a pizza from scratch, or baking brownies. I also love traveling, concerts, and cats (heavy on that, because I am a cat mom).
