This question is as old as time: what is the best superpower to have? I bring for you, in this text, my opinion, which is undoubtedly, for sure, the correct one.

If I found a genie lamp, my first - and maybe only - wish would be like this:

"I wish to have the power to go back in time, bringing along the whole universe, but I get to keep my memories and physical changes."

This wish is so good that the genie might even applaud me.

It works like this: I can return to any time of my life like a rewind. This way I can avoid all time-paradox related problems, since the only changes happen on me. I need to relive it all over again, though. Can't jump forward.

With this power, the first thing to do is wait for the lotto, memorize the numbers, go back and boom!! I'm already rich af. I could ace any exam, if I wanted to get a job, be the world's best goalkeeper, if I wanted to get an awesome job, try out any hyphotesis without regrets... Et cetera. All the stuff that everyone wishes for.

Can't forget the time saving aspect as well: I watch something, I rewind, I go to the gym, I rewind again - without losing progress! -, I study, rewind... Don't want to wake up in the morning? Just go back to late night and sleep again, as much as you want. Tecnically, it's also possible to eat infinitely. There's just good points!!

I Could go back to my childhood and live everything again with today's knowledge. It could be interesting and weird missing someone who I haven't met yet. Just as I could fix my mistakes, I could stay when I was 7 years old forever and avoid all that.

There you have it, my opinion. There's no way to opt for flight, invisibility or teleportation (even though this is the 2º best) after these arguments. Sadly, since we live in a dull reality, I won't be blessed with this power, and all that I can do is dream about it. It is what it is.

Gyms are that kind of place where you can find all sorts of people:
teens, grandpas, skeletons, fatties, bodybuilders, nerds, bodybuilder grandpas as well and even children (the ones that almost get killed on the machines). And in all of my ocasional trips to the gym, one group has always caught my attention: the unemployed.

It's hard to define, but when I see one of these, I immediately think to myself "look, that one is definitely unemployed". To me, this class includes the guys that graduated from high school years ago but still look like teenagers, practically live on the gym and generally are very ripped.

Ok, it might be a little biased, but let's agree that the 20yo guy that's going to the gym everyday probably doesn't have a job. I look at them and think:
- "What do they do outside the gym? What's he thinking? Is he happy?"-
Considering that they are really lean, they're probably happy. Or not. I would be, personally.

Actually, this judgment of mine with the gym unemployed comes from a fear that I have of ending up in the same situation: just graduated, I wasn't approved on college entrance exams and I'll have to go through an entire year of studying and having anxiety crisis. After all, everything that just-graduates know how to do is sleeping, playing games, going to the gym and having existential crisis.

Maybe it might turn out to not be like how I think, maybe they do, in fact, have a job and are very hardworking people. I can't truly know because, in the end, the only time that I see them is in the gym, which is just a small slice of their lives. My only hope is that I can skip this phase of being an Unemployed of the Gym and skip the part where a nosy kid writes a dissertation about me.

This text was inspired by the guy that I saw at the gym on February that led me to write this. Thank you, founding father of the unemployed class.
