If you could have 3 mutant powers, what would they be?

I might want X-ray vision, pretty handy. I could just enjoy the view watching wherever I want. Of course I would want to be able to turn that off with some people.
Maybe super intelligence to invent whatever I want to do.
On second thought, I would trade X-ray vision for an automatic phase shift out of this dimension as an automatic response to avoid injury like in the matrix movie. I could invent X-ray contact lens to see naked girls whenever I wanted with the other ability.
How about you? Anything special or unique?
On third thought, I would also trade the teleport ability for possible immortality or not aging even though I read they are working in that one. I could invent a teleporting spacecraft with super intelligence. Might have to invent mini fusion reactors first to generate enough power to phase shift a vehicle out of this dimension and pop back somewhere else. I would also need to invent something to avoid phase shifting back inside objects like crew members supposed did in the so called Philadelphia experiment.
It would be cool to live in Minnesota or Australia or somewhere, visit Paris for lunch and pop over to Follies after lunch or some topless beach.
What would you do?

See the future , to buy stocks and such
I'm not a big fan of movies based on comic books because the heroes always have obvious powers like super strength, flying, laser eyes, and so forth. Or they're rich and buy things like airplanes, super cars, etc. If I were making a comic book movie the heroes would have weird powers, so of like the guy with plastic man penis that talks to fish.
For me, I'd have hot girl X-Ray vision, where I wouldn't see through clothes if the girl had unsightly tattoos or was otherwise unattractive. It would work to block my X-Ray vision even if she sort of looked hot with her clothes on.
But if she was a hotty I'd see everything!
I'd be able to talk with dachshunds and doxie crosses. And frogs. But I doubt that frogs have much to say.
And finally I'd have incredible luck with midrange lottery winnings. Not the big jackpots. But every time I stop in to buy a Slim Jim or some jerky at a convenience store I'd buy a lotto ticket and it would be a winner in the $500 to $10K range.
I'm not sure if those powers would help me fight crime or make me one of the Justice Society. But they make me laugh so they'd be ace anyway! ;)
Not sure if that's mutant, but I'd love to have that telepathic vision.

2. The ability to lose every confrontational debate and still delude myself into thinking that I will someday become a lawyer without a history of sucking dick and giving bareback anal in VIP rooms.
3. The ability to post psychotic rantings from my mom's basement about creating an organization based on learnings acquired from getting GFE in the front rooms of the underground mexican hat dancing circuit without playing the chump's game of paying for dances.
Those would be some mutant powers.
While the type of "x-ray vision" described above is desirable, it's not very plausible. It has to be able to penetrate multiple layers of clothing, while still leaving the view of the skin underneath as "normal". Not very likely.
On the other hand, there is lots of evidence that the brain is capable of things we don't fully understand, so I'm also going to go with the mind reading / mind influencing power, like what the Jedi have. Then, if I want to see a beautiful girl naked, I can just convince her to take her clothes off. If I need more money, I can just convince some weak minded fool to give some to me.
Since we're allowed to pick three, I'll also take telekinesis which would then allow some form of flight to take place.
And an accelerated/regenerative metabolism (ala Wolverine or The Highlander), which should protect me from injuries and provide a longer more youthful life.
I guess I haven't changed much except now I can just hit SCs whenever I want and see all the naked women I want :)
A prehensile cock
The ability to read (and control) minds
The ability to shit singles.
Does that make me a deck monkey?
Comic book powers for a strip club:
A cock
The ability to read
The ability to shit
There I fixed your post, but you have me on ignore, so you probably won't be able to Thank Me, it's O.K. Your Welcome
Think like the video game "Life is Strange" or "Remember Me" where the main character can rewind and manipulate time. That's very powerful. You can change fates. I'm not sure I'd want that power though. I might to think this over and choose funny powers, like everyone else.
The ability to predict the market. You would make serious bank bull or bear.
The ability to comprehend and speak any language. I would want to travel with all that wealth and think of all the beautiful foreign woman I could "heal'.
Next,. maybe regeneration and the ability to turn into anything i want, that way after awhile I could change into someone else so no one knew I lived forever, since i would regenerate like Wolverine.
Reason: No fear of reprisal from angry deadbeat boyfriends or bouncers itc.
The ability to emulate the appearance of anyone ie Mystique.
Reason: I can make myself look like a woman's ideal man. Also good for fooling deadbeat boyfriends.
The ability to read the mind ie Professor X.
Reason:so I know what the woman desires so I can have the look she wants (mystique power) and say what she wants to hear.
How about throwing in "knowing the answer to everything." Always knowing what to say to women, always knowing who has the best hand at the poker table I'm playing at, always knowing which team is going to win and cover the spread, oh yeah and knowing how to cure cancer. Yeah that'll work.
With that super power I don't think any others are needed.
2) The ability to be invisible
3) The ability to touch something and have its quality increase or decrease.
Here are some examples of #3.
You are short on cash. Just touch a $1 bill and suddenly it becomes a $100 bill.
You are at a club and there are no hot dancers. A dancer approaches you and she looks like she's 55-years old, and has probably given birth at least 8 times. When she introduces herself and you shake her hand, suddenly she is now 30 years younger and her body looks as good as it did before her first child.
You are in a club full of men in suits and ties and they all have looks that are comparable to celebrities like George Clooney, Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise. Just go tap them all on the shoulder and now they all look like Sloth from The Goonies.
jester - I hate to be a stickler and rain on your parade but Luke Cage is not a mutant. It would have to be Apocalypse. :)
