It can be fun to imagine that we have a superpower, and one thing many people wish they had is telepathic powers. The ability to speak to other people across miles and without actually using words is pretty intriguing, and could also have some interesting applications.
This person on Reddit wants to know – if you could put one single thought into every mind on earth at the exact same moment, what would you say?
I’m still pondering my answer, so in the meantime, let’s see what these 11 people came up with!
11. Because most people will think it’s god.
all the atheists are gonna be completely stumped.
10. If you just want to annoy people.
“According to my YouTube statistics, only a small percentage of my viewers are actually subscribed.
So if you end up liking this video, please subscribe. It’s free, and you can always unsubscribe later.
Also, there’s been a YouTube glitch that’s been going around that makes you unsubscribe randomly, so if you could just scroll down and check if you’re subscribed, it would help me out a lot. With that out of the way, let’s get on with the video.”
9. This seems like an extremely likely outcome.
After announcing this telepathic message, it receives it own Wikipedia page for the soul purpose of debating its meaning, who made it, and how did it work.
8. That must have been some toot.
“Whomever just farted managed to disturb the eternal conscience”
7. Ways to drive people nuts.
To terrify some, “Alright, welcome to the only game…” and pick a random Graystillplays video to continue the sentence.
6. That’s just mean (but a good idea for a story).
Something along the line of “19 remain”
They won’t know what the 19 are.
People?
Hours?
Deaths?
This will most likely spiral them into insanity.
5. Don’t give writers telepathy.
“ONE OF THE EIGHT HAS FALLEN. THE BARRIER HAS BEEN WEAKENED.”
People would wonder what they did, as well as what the other 7 are and what the barrier is for.
4. No one would know what to think about this.
“You picked the correct religion. I am real, and this is the proof you’ve been asking for.”
Then I’d watch the world blow up.
3. Most of us will just assume that’s our own thoughts.
Act out a conversation between 2 people talking about shutting down the simulation, then freak out about accidentally broadcasting the conversation in the simulation
“But if you power off Chicago, the rest of them will notice.”
“We’ve gotta start somewhere.” ”
No, I’m not gonna do that. I think it will frazzle them. The population’s too big; you can’t just eliminate the entire city.”
“Then try somewhere smaller. Try Tampa. Just test it out.”
“No, we should try it on a forest somewhere. Or some island. Or a mountain, or something. One that they won’t miss.”
“The whole purpose of this is to see if it’s better to wipe and start over. The whole thing is backed up with data. I feel like rebooting would be the best bet.”
“Yeah, but the memory would be– ah, shit. I’m leaning on the intercom.” ”
You idiot! Turn that o–“
2. This just makes me laugh.
Anything telepathic transmitted to every living human being on Earth without explanation would immediately be taken as the voice of God by the majority I’m sure.
Therefore, the only thing I’d say would be something along the lines of, “Whoops… sorry.”
1. Therapists are gonna be getting a whole bunch of work.
“Huh. So I guess I do need a psychiatrist”
Or
“I knew the universe could talk!”
Or something like that
These are some good ones. I’m going to keep thinking.
