Choice 1
Never Fall
About:
-From this point on you cannot unintentionally fall down.
-This includes flying in an airplane. If you are on an airplane, it will never fall from the sky and crash.
-Because you cannot unintentionally fall down, you will be really good at extreme sports, and you could use your ability to make money.
-If you are about to fall, the universe auto-corrects your position, and places you upright.
-The auto-correct alters your movement in a way similar to how auto-tune corrects your pitch...so it looks kind of screwy.
-You can fall intentionally, if you so desire.
-You could ride a unicycle instantly.
-You could dominate figure skating.
-You could hold the world record for longest handstand even if you can’t do a handstand.
Rules or Restrictions:
None
Choice 2
World's Greatest Arguer
About:
-From this point on you have the ability to become the world’s greatest arguer.
-You can sway many people’s minds to believe what you want them to believe.
-You can only sway the minds of reasonable people. For example, you could sway the mind of someone to believe that Happy Gilmore is Adam Sandler’s best film, but you could not sway an extremist into considering the opposing view any more than usual. If they aren’t listening to you, they are tuning out your power.
-You are only great at arguing on topics that you are knowledgeable in. However, you can study and gain more knowledge in subjects.
-Term papers and debates will be a breeze, as long as you are somewhat prepared.
-Your arguments will not only be sound in their logic, but elegant in their execution.
-You would make a great lawyer.
-You would be a desirable candidate to work in settings like the president’s cabinet, high profile trials, or in scholarly debates.
-You can use this ability to make money.
Rules or Restrictions:
None

The inner monologue translator feature would be useful here.
It's gotta be greatest arguer. I'm not really much of a faller, but I do love being right when other people are wrong. I would feel that all the time if I was the world's greatest argument. Plus I think there is something kind of bad-ass about the unrealized possibility of being a plane that has a movie-style fall. I never ever want to to happen, but like to pretend that it might and I would use my manwits to save myself. It would be a shitty daydream if the plane couldn't fall.
This one is hard for me guys. You may think that I'd take the brainiac approach and go for arguer. But just thinking about going snow boarding sounds like so much fun if you couldn't fall. You could do some crazy crazy shiz. Fame and fortune aside, I just think that would be so freaking fun.
I think if you tried to make a career out of not falling, then you would have to purposely fall sometimes. Because people would get bored of watching you stick it every single run. You'd have to be careful how you plan it so it's still exciting and for fans to watch. If you have perfect runs EVERY time, it might actually ruin the sport all together. I dunno, something about needing to plan how you will dominate makes me feel like it lacks integrity. It's like not knowing how to sing/being talentless, and autotuning all your albums. At least with the arguer, it will feel more like a natural ability. It's not like someone is writing your arguments for you. You're actually doing the work.
