The dude from Heroes (TV Show) with the ability to store other people abilities seemed to enjoy it! So that one!

 


What if you're the only person with an ability? That would make yours useless. Or if you couldn't find anyone with abilities, because they are hiding all over the world.

“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

Time travel definitely, I can create a life where I don't make any mistakes.

That would be awful, as you would end up creating a never ending stream of paradoxes. 

Bearing in mind that you could Time Travel as you will. In the present you do a mistake like, let's say accidentaly run over a person, and you travel back in time to warn yourself about it and correct it. The current present you (after being warned by the future you) would have no need to go back in time and warn your past you again because the mistake didn't happen, but then the past you wouldn't know about it and would still commit the mistake. 

So you're left with two choices: - Either you don't warn your past self about your future mistakes, or your future self is always doomed to go back in time to warn your past self about that mistake over and over again. 

That's why Time Travel, if ever possible, would be a terrible thing if ever used to go back to the past. Also using it to go into the future to see how your life would plan out would be terrible as well, because that would create an entire different set of paradoxes.

Well  not time travel, but the ability to change my past actions. Say for instance I remember a time where I drunk some bad milk. I could change the universe where I would have never drank the milk. Does that make sense?

That makes sense, since it's more of altering the reality of the events rather than the events themselves.
