You pick up an old hammer, and can suddenly control storms, what do you do first?

[Chrome Hyena]

So you're in your home and you trip over something.

Looking down its an old hammer, a old pair of gloves and a old workman's belt. It's all definitely not yours, covered in cobwebs. You pick up the hammer to examine it and suddenly all around your house a lightning storm breaks out. You drop it, and it stops.

What's your next move?

(Yes, I just finished MORTAL the movie lol)

 

[SigSig]

I move it to the hindmost corner of the basement and do my best to never touch it again, ever.

 

[HStallion]

I create a non stop unending mile wide downpour centralized directly over Trump's head that will track his position relentlessly and without fail. Then I bring water to places that desperately need it and stop storms that could become natural disasters.

 

[julia crawford]

Donate it to science

 

[Slayven]

Get suited and booted

 

[Eggiem]

Waking up.

 

[weemadarthur]

My next move is to put on the belt and see what it does.

....what does it do?

 

[Coinspinner]

Snow in Miami.

 

[BasilZero]

Whisper "Avengers.....Assemble".

 

[Godfather]

Erase Florida.
Return normal rain levels to the west coast.
Guarantee every vacation I ever take has nice weather.

Edit: Wait, does it only create thunderstorms centered on you? That's not as useful.

 

[octopedes]

I bless the rains down in Africa

 

[Sanjuro]

I give him back his baggy pants and let him control the universe again

 

[Jakenbakin]

Coordinate with the internet, probably reddit, to see where my powers can best be put to use saving lives, preventing natural disasters, providing water for crops, bringing clean water to communities in need, etc.

 

[Baalzebup]

I start extorting money from rich holiday locations, threatening to visit them during busy seasons if they don't pay up. I use part of the money for high living, part of it to help those in need.

Melt it, Im not butterfly effecting nature

Belt gives you super strength and invulnerability.

Also no, you can control what the storms and lightning do, eventually. BUT you'd have to pick it up again to learn that.

 

[DoubleTake]

Where the droughts be?

 

[Chojin]

I'd start speaking in shakespearean prose.

 

[aisback]

Let it rain where it's needed and after cause chaos probably

 

[Imperfected]

Realistically, I'm probably turning this zany stuff over for scientific study.

 

[junk]

Take Sif out on a date

They'll hear the drums echoing tonight.

 

[super-famicom]

I throw the hammer across the room to see if it will return back to my hand.

 

[carlsojo]

There's a private club down in Florida I'd visit.

 

[Chie Satonaka91]

What do the gloves do?

Allow you to more adequately control the hammer and not kill yourself with random lightning strikes? (Movie wasn't clear)

This seems much more immediately useful. I've got some furniture to rearrange, it's what I went to the basement for!

Hell yeah, I've always wanted to be Zubaz!

 

[Chie Satonaka91]

If I'm super strong and invulnerable and can controls storms/lightening/rain, then fuck it, I'm a superhero now. Who's gonna stop me?

 

[Dr. Dr. Dogtooth]

Build a power plant and give away free energy to help mankind and save the environment.

 

[Deleted member 13496]

Go snowboarding. Like straight up pow days every day for the rest of my life. Don't even care about the other applications.

Pretty much this.

My first thought is that I live in Southern Arizona, so, yeah. I start bringing in some regular rain. But it has to be done carefully, because this place can flood really easily. But with enough time and enough care, this place could be a paradise.

And also ruining Trump's ability to golf for the rest of his life would just be REALLY funny.

 

[softtack]

An asshole here has been going to the gym during lock down. I would cast Thundaga on his Lamborghini.

 

[mbpm]

I would probably want to take it in for study considering I am majoring in meteorology.

 

[RobotHaus]

Can I make it just rain? It'd be nice to grow a garden with consistent weather conditions.

 

[Steel]

I use it to break up potentially dangerous hurricanes and create rain over out of control fires. I make it clear that I'm the only one that can use the hammer and open a gofundme for storm busting. Profit.

Oh, and it would never stop raining over mar-a-largo.

 

[Deleted member 62221]

I fix the drought in certain parts of my country.

 

[The Unsent]

Everytime people are being selfish and start gathering outside, they stop giving a shit about social distancing, I would summon a storm, until they go back home.

 

[The Scale]

Pay Mitch Mcconnell a visit

 

[Pbae]

Buy land cheap far inland and make a killing as the storms I summon ravage and flood half of the earth decimating it's population. I'd build a new world order with the wealth and power I've obtained under the guise of a shadow organization.

Or just make it rain when I don't want to go to work or an event or if I'm too lazy to water the garden outside.

 

[W-00]

First move? Experiment. I pick the hammer back up to see if the storm comes back. Then see if I can figure out what the other stuff does.

Eventually? There are a lot fewer droughts in the world and a lot of speculation that maybe lightning is attracted to bad people.

 

[JJD]

I'm gonna make a lot of money raising crops lol

 

[Deleted member 22630]

Reenact the Ancient Flood!

 

[Zhengi]

I would make it rain in California cause we need the rain. Then I would start looking for ways to combat climate change.

 

[Chirotera]

I use it to get laid. Ladies be impressed by supernatural gifts.

Yes you can make it rain nonstop, not just storms. lightning/storms just show you have no control at first.

 

[Saint of Killers]

Make it storm in my pants.

 

[Servbot24]

I sell my powers at a premium and live easy.

Yeah Thor is at a meeting with the United Nations discussing climate change and just sitting there with his hammer.
