Hmm, could I turn myself into a statue? 'Cause I totally would.
And I'd be a Homestuck troll for a while. And a cat. And some kind of a bird.
Other than that I'd probably stay mostly looking the way I usually do but have a different hairstyle/haircolor every day til I get sick of messing with my hair and never get wrinkled.
Stupid doomed timeline...I'd cure my acne.
Yeah, I don't see this getting a lot of use other than that.
That's Feo . . . He's a disgusting, mysoginistic, paedophilic asshat who moonlights as a shitty writer—Something AwfulI'm going to shapeshift my DNA into having more telomerase!!
[1] This facsimile operated in part by synAC.Let's see - instantly lose 20 pounds, and never have to shave again are the two most pragmatic. But probably I'm going to spend most of my time at home Furry* and hit every sci-fi convention I can as fictional characters that can't be easily cosplayed - like full-size Avatars or RedXIII or maybe one of those robots from Ghost In The Shell Stand Alone Complex.
Then there's all the bedroom stuff that my wife would want me to try ...
I would change into a variety of attractive men and women, go around the country making out and having sex with all sorts of random people.
I would just be worried about every single shift I come up with having their own personality and in the end, they would all fight inside my brain for dominance.
I could impersonate politicians and create a more pleasurable political environment.
Also, impose my total will on the world and take joyrides on Air Force One! Wheeee!
How much mass do I have at disposal for my transformations?
Because if this is not specified, I could turn into a mobile, sentient, earth-enveloping, fruit-producing apple tree, and solve world hunger singlehandedly.
And no one would try to bother me or experiment on me without my approval — after all, I am the guy who can increase his mass enough to turn Earth into a black hole... ;)

But they seem to know where they are going, the ones who walk away from Omelas.Make myself look so handsome that even the guys will want me and.... I dunno, pick up chicks or something. I'm not sure. I only ever got to the "make myself really attractive" part.
That, and cosplay. Or turn myself into the '93 San Diego Padres.

"Stealing is a crime and drugs is a crime too BUT if you steal drugs the two crimes cancel out and it’s like basically doing a good."Not really, no. you can look the part, yes, but acting is harder than that. Also, you can't multiply yourself. Also, also, you can't play the extras.
Although, you can go method without actually going method...
"My life is my own" | If you want to contact me privately, please ask first on the forum.It's called editing juan! Just film yourself walking past as a dozen different people, and overlay the film. Likewise, just put two seperate shots together for characters interacting.
Although you're right that it would take a highly talented actor to do it all.
Charlie Tunoku is a lover and a fighter.Depends. We talking Painful Transformation - style shapeshifting or that magical painless shapeshifting I've heard so much about?
If it's the former, nothing.
If it's the latter, TURN INTO A GUY. DUH. I think the first thing most people would do is become the opposite gender.
I'm in your fanfiction, correcting your spelling.![]()

I never got the reason for the fascination, actually. I guess it'd be about the same, with more/less dangly/bouncy bits and some rather confusing changes in societal expectations.
Wouldn't it be more interesting to experience the ctenophora
◊ side of life?
