| yeah we need clarification.
just as people automatically assume that being able to fly means that like superman, you can turn it on and off, ditto with invisibility.
its generally assumed that just as a flyer can carry small things and clothes etc with their power, so can an invisibler affect their clothing and small objects with a touch such as carrying things etc.
flyers can't carry lorries etc while flying... they cant go supersonic. invisibilers cant walk through walls sorry alex and cant make a building invisible by touching it etc... yes both flying and invisibling are quirky party trick type things which is why the question in the first place.
i will openly admit that i would be invisible so that i could move about without being noticed if i wished... but in this horrible corrupt naughty world we live in i think that would be a great thing to be able to do. my thought to sven would be, look both ways before you cross the street... this is a rule that we follow as children in NZ that you may find useful to prolong your life, whether visible or not.
you'd have to be careful... stealing drug money and hog-tying bad people for the cops is a risky business, but it would be the best fun ever.
i would probably trip over some normal people on occasion for a laugh and play a few pranks but i'd like to go about my life normally and now and then go and stock up on dirty money or something from a convenient gang lair to top up my cash flow and maybe do some random do-gooding by drowning all the baddies in marmalade or whatever took my fancy.
while fliers would make good inner-city couriers, i just would prefer to sneak the earth, myself.
please note that people who automatically assume that invisiblers would do sneaky evil things are by definition the people who have thought "what could i do if i was invisible" and thought only of sneaky evil things... pretty sad really. oh what a tangled web we weave.
