I’m going Orange. I feel like all of the others would naturally follow.

    Black one for sure. You could get away with some amazing heists/pranks/achievements.

    Red.

    Simply say “oh, its a full moon tonight?” Then look at them with your now piercingly red eyes and state “I must leave, immediately.”

    Get out of any social situation and you can get your friends to think you’re hiding some big secret. Win win.

    People here talk about doing crime with the black pill, but I would instead just be the perfect astronaut.

    Think about it, they could shoot you in space without having to think about how to get you back. No landing, no parachute, just a one way rocket launch.

    Space agencies would be practically forced to hire you on the spot.

      The problem being that if your are out of the country (and you can’t teleport back to anywhere else), you now need to explain to the authorities how you managed to get in without a movement record.

      Although it might be useful if you are a local and just need to dodge a bullet or escape a mugging by random teleportation.

    One time I was in Spain and I found 5 Australian dollars on the floor in a train station. I picked it up and pocketed it. The same day, I climbed a bell tower in some museum/remains and was chilling up there for half an hour, without anybody else coming up. Eventually another person came up and said hi. Recognised they were Australian so I asked them if they wanted 5 dollars and they said “…yeah?” And I gave it to them. No explanation.

    I laugh sometimes thinking of the story from their perspective, climbing a Spanish bell tower and meeting an English guy at the top who hands them 5AUD, like a NPC in an RPG.

    The black teleport one. You rob a bank and then teleport away so you can’t be tracked? The means of escape is usually how they track you down. So, suddenly being able to teleport thousands of miles in a moment?

    Also, it’d be really useful for interstellar stuff. You only need enough fuel, food, and air to go one way. Strap me onto the rocket to Mars! I’d even hop back with huge sacks of Mars rocks to give to NASA. We’ve figured out the trek to Mars, its the getting back that’s been the problem.

    Quite a lot are picking Tirana.

    I suspect there’ll be some telefragging in the future.

    Black. I could do anything far away from Albania, teleport there, have three cctv cameras and 9 guys at a pub confirm was there having a drink with them in the evening the 23rd and could definitely not have been robbing a jewelery store in Copenhagen at the same time.

      You can rob one store. Afterwards you can’t enter the EU without interpol arresting you.

        They would have to figure out how I could be impossibly far away soon after the crime to a judge to get the warrant and then to a jury to get me convicted.

        Had to look it up. Albania is in the final stages of joining the EU anyway so that won’t be too much of a problem.

      I feel like you could easily just make money off their TV performances… Wait is the dog like as smart as a person? Isn’t going to start demanding that it sign its own contracts and have its own bank account? That could get old fast.

        Nobody would believe it. They’d accuse you of faking it a la Milli Vanilli. You have a talking dog, a literal miracle, and yet people would mock and criticize. Depressed, you’d turn to alcohol. The good shit, sure–that dog made you a little money, after all–but paying more for your poison only makes it drain all of your resources that much faster. You’re a husk of your former self.

        But you’ve still got your dog who still loves you unconditionally, against all odds. :)

      Having a dog that speaks Cantonese would be a great way to get a girlfriend that speaks both English and Cantonese, and make a shit ton of money as the dog talks to people, and the girlfriend translates.

        How do you know she isn’t mistranslating your messages to the dog to make it think she’s on its side? You’ve got an awful lot of trust…

          Who cares, if the money flows in? Even if both dog and and girlfriend are lying about the words, the audience will eat it up and pay for the extra entertainment!

        Is this a reference to something I don’t get? Because I dunno how talking dog is some monkeys paw cursed blessing just because it speaks Cantonese. I don’t speak Cantonese, but, like 80 million other people do. So I could learn.
