I don't wanna know about the things some people have floating around in their crazy heads.

This was a tough one. Reading minds holds so many benefits for making money, seduction, gaining power. But at the same time I wouldn't want to know some things that would inevitably pop up. It definitely is the more evil of the 2.
Paranana
Although telepathic doesn't just mean reading minds. You can also speak to them through your mind as well.

Yea but ask a girl who she likes ...it be akward if you smiled and jumped up an down after but you'd be happy or sad

also, telekinetic would be less multi-purpose.
valcorwabajak
you could get fame i mean telekinesis is easier to prove than telepathy
Blue_Xephos
Brilliant mate. Rather move stuff with my mind
Turd Burglar 12345
Fuckin throw dildos at people from afar
Omnipotent
Telekinesis is the creating of force fields around an object and moving said object with your mind. Mow lets say the object is your body... I now can move stuff with my mind AND fly!
Beawrence
If I were telekinetic I would smash everything around me when I'd get furious, I'd go crazy and kill some people (just like it happens in my mind all the time). If only this was real..

you must be joking. you will be the most powerful person in the world if you can read minds. although id have to develop into a psychopath so i can deal with all the manipulations and lies

"It's no use" Lmfao. Anyway, this is an easy pick for me. Throw bronies into buildings, and smash their skull in.
Snickrdodle
You may be able to be like professor Xavier and control peoples minds too! Then I would just control a telekinetic mind and move stuff with THIER Mind...Mwahaha.
Snickrdodle
Whoops..I meant to pick Telepathic..Oh well Telekinetic is still pretty cool
Hole in my sock
I don't need to read people's minds. Throwing objects at them untill they talk is much more entertaining. >:D Plus, if I could move any object, including electrically charged particles, I would be able to control(l) electric currents and as such, thoughts.
Grant Gillespie
I'm not that good socially. So telepathy would be helpful.
Alex Sandro Katamadze
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand you're naked!
Gavin Brown
Ok so you can throw me at a wall. Well i could read your mind and then oush a thought that you suddenly commit suicide.

But you can also speak inside their heads and mess with them. Make them think they're insane. Kinda like what Ruin did to Zane on Mistborn.

In Mistborn not on Mistborn. It's a book. Read it or die.

Now i can get that last beer out of the fridge and fly :D

"Telepathy: User can read/sense another person's thoughts, communicate with them mentally and/or affect their minds/thoughts."Ehm, I have always wanted to lift objects without touching them. but this now seems much cooler/stronger in a fight. Think about controling other peoples minds xD That would be one of the strongest powers out there!
Gracie
So you wouldn't wanna know who your crush likes?
Gaster
I already know way too much about the sick things that go on in people's minds. Why do you think I'm here? I'd rather blackmail someone on a deep and dark secret than be able to move boulders with my mind

Don't want to poke around in Deadpool's head. Just look what happened to Mr. Xavier: When Xavier used his powers to shut down Deadpool's mind, he learned "the true" and died of brain injury. taken from Marvel Database. Comic is from Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe.

If you were seen by government, you'd quickly be kidnapped and used for testing for the purpose super soldiers. Tests involve agony, and lots of harmful things.

But think about it... if you could read their thoughts, they just might remember a very embarrassing moment and you could use it as blackmail.

You could make the ball in roulette go on your number every time you'd bet on it.

As a telekenetic, you could move things around. As a telepathic, you could make another person bring it to you AND you get other bonuses

Rythmbot
There's really no point in moving things with your mind. Besides food, what are you going to move?
ಠ_ಠ
well let's see, i could avert car crashes if i was aware of one, i could win bets, i could have some fun and watch people freak out when trees start to fly, lots of things really

You could be super lazy... just move food and the light switch with your mind.. not to mention flying instead of walking

Being able to use telekinesis gives you many more things to do than using telepathy.
planchlax
you can control the atoms and make any item i want or control the world or travel in space and so on

andistudios
Stop missiles or bullets in thin air. Types at 1000s of wpm to write essay. Literally charges up all my energy and stops everything such as cars bullets, brain neurons perceiving time.. Except light, heat, and me. Basically stopping time itself. Spin a metal wheel fast enough to gain enough static electricity to power a city. TURN ON THE TV WITHOUT TOUCHING THE REMOTE.. Making car fly. Rearrange the particles in a tv to make it bendable and bend it at just the right time to make the movie completely 3D.. Or maybe carry a drink with your mind?
cheesit
Think of all the money you can make playing poker.
EcksNine
Think of all the money you can make moving things with your mind.

You could make just as much money being telekinetic by playing roulette ;)

^ you can make more playing roulette a lot faster effectively increasing your money by 32x in less than a min each time you spin

Andrew Schwartz
It's a classic example of Sookie Stackhouse or Luke Skywalker. Being telepathic would make holding any normal relationship nearly impossible while being telekinetic would be just be badass.
lexi
good point, sookie's life sucks..espcially since bill is there
babalooskies
no one would want to hang out with me if i was telepathic. everyone would want to hang out with me if i was telekinetic.
2Laggy4Life
Don't tell anyone you're telepathic, use it as an advantage
Teh Flosh
But then 2Laggy4Life you're not the life of the party and you have no friends because people assume you got the information by stalking them!
kylemerck
Everyone is acting as if telepathy is the only way to get rich or famous. With telekinesis, you could be an athlete who controls the ball with his mind. Imagine being a soccer player and being able to put the ball exactly where you want it. You'd be unstoppable. And incredibly rich.
Kyle Psydsho McIntos
Bitches must not have watched Chronicle.
planchlax
you can take over the world
Piotr Grochowski
You could also control the money and move it to yourself
Roze
Being telekinetic would make me very lazy. You could control what minds you read
Trevor Lebert
Making you equally lazy
planchlax
yeah but you can get rid of your fat and harden your mucles with tlelekinetic poweres
Aleksandr Kaletnikov
And you can enjoy being caught by the government

How am I going to get caught by the government

@GreatChoices you got a point, how are they gonna stop a literal god, who can rearrange the molecules in objects, stop a missile in thin air, rip someone apart.

if you're telekinetic, can you move yourself?! that's what i really need.

At my school in the morning, a lot of ppl stand there in like crowded groups! And I wouldn't want every1's thoughts all whispering in my head!
Liam Connor
Being telepathic means knowing what someone would do and possibly controlling people with your mind!
Teh Flosh
Do you walk around thinking in your mind, "HMMM I WILL GO TO FRIDGE NOW! HMMM I WILL GRAB CHEESE!" You don't know what they're going to do...
Ryan2016
No, telepathic is not mind control. It just means reading their minds.
Aleksandr Kaletnikov
Telepathy, you can also talk to them in your mind. However.. the reason I chose telepathy is because you can place thoughts in their minds too. If you were seen by government, you'd quickly be kidnapped and used for testing for the purpose super soldiers. Tests involve agony, and lots of harmful things (to telekinetic users)

D3ltaDude
Telekinesis: bend light waves to make yourself invisible, control the wind to make yourself fly, manipulate people's minds by messing with their brain waves ( which can also allow you to read their minds), and obviously pick stuff up with your mind. Beat that Telepathy!
Riddy
This questions telekinesis says only moving things with your mind.
Chisquil
Riddy, that probably includes controlling things on a molecular level, which means that you can also control light.
Blaze
Disproving: Power 1: You can't bend lightwaves, as they are moving so fast, you couldn't visualize one lightwave in your head, if you tried. And if you somehow pulled it off, which would be doing the impossible over a trillion times all at once, no light hitting you would result in you being in an obvious blob of black, and would be completely useless. Power 2: Controlling the wind? You could probably create a strong wind and pick yourself up, but it would be incredibly unstable, and could easily give out on you, if you stopped constantly thinking about it, and you would, as you need to think about where you are going. Power 3: Brainwaves? The brain uses conduction. Even if you did manipulate one of those, you would have to reprogram 100 billion cells that you can't see that also use binary, in a way where nobody can understand. You would also be forced to trigger random cells, which would do nothing. Power 4: Mindreading? You can't see the cells you control, and even if you did, it would make no sense, as you would have to understand the binary codes of 100 billion cells. Power 5: This was posted by Chisquil, and you could control light if you could picture it, and even then, you would be controlling a useless molecular bit of radiation. Yay.
Foureyes44
pick your self up...
Foureyes44
who says you cant think about more than one wave? Would you have tpo think about every single atom in order to pick something up?
Csomeone
allow me to make it even harder on you: EVERYONE in the world gets this choice, at the same time, and you cant discus or see what others choose. what would you choose then?
Me
If everyone got it, id choose telekenisis for self defense. Otherwise, im reading minds
Chrissy Melody Chime
I'm constantly wondering why people do what they do. Also, it's a lot easier to get your alibis straight when you get caught by the cops.
kevin1811
Or you could get away from the cops by flying away
Teh Flosh
Or just push the cops through the ground into the core of the earth.
Xifihas
There's nothing in most people's minds worth reading. Manipulating objects with my mind has a huge number of applications.

people would realize that you have telekinetic powers, I'd rather keep it a secret

I'm already telepathic
crissyrissa
i figure im already lazy enough.. why promote it?
randombear123
If you were telepathic, it would be hard to concentrate. Also, you might not be able to separate things that people have said from things they have thought.
wonderbung
I think telepathy would make me constantly feel like a manipulative peeping tom. Plus, with telekinesis, I can fly!

think of all i could do with this i could make people get wedgies and make them fart. mwahahahaha.
Kyle
People would always be reluctant to be around you if they knew you were telepathic. Moving things with your mind like in Chronicle would be amazing.
lexi
who cares about reading minds, what if i couldnt turn it off? plus people are crazy i dont want to hear everyone's manic crazy idiotic thoughts what good would that do? then when i reacted to the thoughts i heard i would look like a crazy person.
