Definite GL if I can get autoshields to work without the symptoms (up to the point where the shields kick in, of course)

The symptoms are going to kill your concentration. Ring Slinging will come at that price.

I would go with Lobo, he is a Sadist. And Lobo has endured far more than that in Reign in Hell.

You are not Lobo, though. You just get his stats.

We're both drinkers, so we probably could handle Supes&GL powersets here at the same time haermm

Hulk & Lobo are the worst.

4.) Doom's intelligence/resources, but are having a perpetual orgasm.

this is a win/win

no contest

There is a somewhat similar real life disorder to this: Persistent Genital Arousal Disoder.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persistent_genital_arousal_disorder

I'm just gonna leave this here-

"Failure or refusal to relieve the symptoms often results in waves of spontaneous orgasms in women and ejaculation in men. The symptoms can be debilitating, preventing concentration on mundane tasks. Some situations, such as riding in an automobile or train, vibrations from mobile phones, and even going to the toilet can aggravate the syndrome unbearably causing the discomfort to verge on pain. It is not uncommon for sufferers to lose some or all sense of pleasure over the course of time as release becomes associated with relief from pain rather than the experience of pleasure. Some sufferers have said that they shun sexual relations, which they may find to be a painful experience. The condition may last for many years and can be so severe that it has been known to lead to depression and even suicide"

Yeah, people are massively underestimating how phucking debilitating it'd be to have an everlasting orgasm.

It might not be as painful as some of the other choices, but it'd still be nigh-intolerable.

What people don't get, is that Galan has personally rescued a sufferer from every single condition here.

...In different variations, at least. 😛

Doom's symptoms was your wife, right? Ayo!

As for the thread, jeez they're all tough. Flash's is prob the worst. Imagine stretching a second into years, with constant spike pain.

Hal's is probably useless as well. GL's have been incapacitated by nausea many times - without concentration, willpower is nothing.

I'd probably pick Hulk, tbh. Or Superman's. Doom's is incapacitating. Lobo....if I am immortal, and the pain happens whenever my powers kick in, that means I am in pain FOREVER. No thanks.

Dooms best feat of intelligence

Wouldn't having His's "stats" also mean you get his physiological control. Cause then you could just turn your pain and pleasure centers to what ever setting you want?

But like I said earlier. Lobo likes Pain, so that means you would to.

So ...

Anyway, gaining Lobo's physical stats does not mean you gain his mentality/demeanor as well. And like I said in the OP: the 'cons' that come with these abilities CANNOT be diminished/lessened in any way/shape/form, for as long as you keep said ability active.

That is to say: unless you're a sadist irl(not judging), you would not enjoy the sensation of Bullet Ants biting your dick... But if you're willing to endure that pain to gain his stats, you are free to do so. 👆

Fly is an amoeba irl.

Hal's consequences would by far be the easiest to deal with. But, man... Being Lobo would be awesome.

Yeah, Hal's cons would probably be among the easiest to cope with, but like others have mentioned: it'd be damn hard to concentrate whilst experiencing severe nausea. /shrug

1.) Superman's powers, but experience severe abdominal cramps + the constant urge to have explosive diarrhea.

2.) Hal Jordan's ring/GL know-how, but feel feverish and extremely nauseated.

3.) Hulk's strength/stats, but you are constantly urinating on yourself /w/ the feeling that you are passing large kidney stones.

4.) Doom's intelligence/resources, but are having a perpetual orgasm.

5.) Flash's speed, but feel like sticks are being shoved up your fingernails.

6.) Lobo's stats/immortality, but feel as though your genitals are constantly being bitten by dozens of Bullet Ants.

Superman. Frankly with Supe's physical stats, explosive diarrhea just becomes one more weapon for the repertoire in my war against crime, like heat vision or super breath. I could probably take out a tank battalion with it or get an extra burst of flight speed in emergencies.

GL second. Wouldn't be pleasant but I could probably still get some things done with the ring. Even for the autoshields it would be worth it - feeling feverish and extremely nauseated for a minute is better than being hit by a car or shot by a mugger.

For Doom, you could pick it just for occasionally using the side effect and f*** using it for intelligence.

Lobo would be... bad.

Remember, you don't *actually* have explosive diarrhea. You just feel a constant urge like you're about to.

...And these 'side-effects' don't just last a minute. They last for as long as you have the power active.

6.) Lobo's stats/immortality, but feel as though your genitals are constantly being bitten by dozens of Bullet Ants.

Again, you will experience these 'cons' non-stop for as long as your power is activated. And to be extra clear: You WILL experience these cons to their FULL EXTENT. No exceptions!

For example, Hulk's rage/madness would not diminish the pain you experience, etc.

What would you choose? [/B]
