    I’m now on time. People notice my punctuality, no one actually cares.

    My greatest weakness is my passivity and inability to make decisions so honestly I have no idea.

      You would become an incredible and charismatic leader, always capable of picking the right choice and carrying everyone forward.

      You now have the ability and drive to always make decisions. Are they good ones? Who knows but they are decisions

      Nightclub promotions? Is that still a job or did AI influencers take over it after Covid?

    A lot of people read this as “your greatest weakness is now gone” which makes sense given the video game slider analogy

    Meanwhile I’m here like “how do I somehow, hilariously, become unstoppable by means of procrastinating everything”?

    But I did think of it: significantly extend my lifespan by procrastinating dying :]

      It’s not a fortunate power, but time stops for everyone and everything until you are doing something that’s even slightly productive.

      The cosmic burden of knowing that all of time relies on you getting off the couch, grabbing a shower, and getting done whatever tedious chore you’ve been putting off. Constantly.

      Not a boon, but a curse.

    I’m very forgetful, so I guess in this scenario I have an eidetic memory. I become one of those weird guys who wins every game show due to my fantastic recall of everything I’ve ever read, seen or heard.

      I have always said if I could re-roll my stats I would trade whatever amount of intelligence I supposedly have to be dumb as a box of fucking rocks with a ludicrous amount of charisma.
