    I want to say free gravel, but I need to know how its manifested. In a big pile where I want it? Or like never ending handfuls of pocket gravel?

    "With a heavy heart, this broadcast regrets to inform our audience that President Donald Trump has been crushed by a spontaneous pile of gravel. Investigators are still looking into the source."

      Could be useful, but it says nowhere that your clothes will teleport with you.

        I could do so much with free gravel, you have no idea.

        If you have even the most-basic business sense, this instantly turns you into an uber-wealthy gravel tycoon.

          1. It still allows you to determine whether containers are empty, which is situationally useful.

          Nah, thinking about it, it's much more useful than that. You can presumably see inside of the container itself. Think about how many difficult and dangerous jobs involve inspecting the inside of septic tanks, aircraft fuel tanks, etc. Hell if we stretch the definition of container you could inspect the inside of an engine cylinder.

          Or, monkey's paw, containers with air in them aren't empty. Then it's very difficult to use.

            Given that "Internet of Things" devices like smart toasters can be used as targets/jumping off points for cyberattacks, that one could turn you into a god who could hack with your brain (sort of).

              I worry about those who are thicker than 7 inches. That might cause some Cloverfield Paradox shit, where your innards wind up fuzed with a door. Skinny folks only.

              Yeah, it'd be really important to understand how the 7 inches are measured. Like...is it 7 inches in the same way I mean 7 inches when I say it? Or more like a literal-on-a-ruler 7 inches?

                Like Wish.com Nightcrawler. You can hide so fucking well, as long as there are a bunch of empty containers around.

                  I’d use that power to heal from fatal wounds and reverse terminal illnesses.

                    Free gravel sounds great, but nowhere is the amount specified, if you get a handful of gravel every day for life that's not helpful.

                    Teleport 7 inches sounds good, if the effect of the pill isn't a one time thing. Do you only teleport 7 inches when digesting the pill? Do you keep teleporting? Can you stop teleporting? 😉

                    Also, is the direction controllable or random?

                      Nobody said it was manifested. They said it's free. Here's your free bonus pickaxe, lazy bones.

                        I mean, it doesn't say there's a cooldown, so in theory you could just spam it a shitton of times and no matter how thick the door is, you'll get through it.

                            I feel like everyone is underestimating 5. It's any toaster. Make a killer robot that happens to have the ability to make toast and you've got a remote control death bot.

                            I'd make a whole set of devices that happen to also be toasters. Why not add some heating elements and springs to an elevator, a car, a plane?

                              7 inches is a lot. Almost too much you could say. 5 is enough.. Right?

                                7 has the mild convenience of quickly eliminating any empty containers from search for whatever you're missing. But really Free Gravel is the winner here.

                                  It could actually be insanely overpowered depending on interpretation.

                                  "Instantly see inside any empty container"

                                  What does it mean to "see" inside a container? If that just means "know what the contents are" (i.e
                                  nothing) then it's limited, but if it means literally see with remote sight, that's much more useful - depending on this next part...

                                  What does "inside" mean? Does it mean we can only observe the interior, or can we look out from the interior as if our point of view occupies it?

                                  And finally, what constitutes an "empty container"? Is a container still a container if it doesn't have a lid? Or do its sides need to be opaque? By most interpretations, a glass with no liquid would easily fit the definition of an empty container...

                                  At its most favourable then, this power gives you the ability to remote surveil any location where a common, everyday empty glass could be found. Very powerful indeed.

                                  It also doesn't seem to list a distance limit?

                                  I'm now observing from the inside of an empty Tupperware container in a Top Secret facility.

                                        I would be the Gravel King. You need gravel, you come to me. I would be a benevolent king though. I would grant gravel to those that need it.

                                          Also, 7 inches are generally enough to teleport through a wall

                                          Is it tho? If your body moves 7", the new position of your back would still be behind where your front was, at least for my fat ass. So you couldn't clear a wall. But if it's a problem to teleport into a wall, then it would also be a problem to teleport into the air where you're going. And if you left a sudden vacuum behind you, it would create a dangerous shock wave as it collapsed.
