Easy, free gravel. Become a gravel salesman.
Would be interesting to see how it appears though. Can I get to just point to a spot and suddenly gravel? If so, charge people for the show too. Just rock up to their house, point at the driveway and boom, gravel. Easy money.
Added bonus: don’t like someone? Boom, house literally full of gravel.
Gravel.
Just says that the gravel is free, not that you can generate it or make it appear. You’ve got a lifetime supply of gravel from suppliers but you still gotta move it around
Still a free product. Normally gravel traders have to purchase the gravel, move it and sell it. Now you just have to move and sell it. Massive profits. Transport fees are for the customer too, so basically free as well.
Built a greenhouse with a gravel foundation this summer. Doesn’t matter if I have to move it. Free gravel is useful.
You will have free grave in north Korea
I don’t want to deal with people tho
Free gravel is so busted compared to the rest. Gravel’s one of those things that you don’t need often, but someone in any town on any given day will need some.
You could undercut every single other gravel business. Even if the competition lowers their prices dramatically, they can’t go lower than their costs. Meanwhile, you have absolutely no costs on material. Gravel monopoly.
Bet I could retire in a year, two at the outside. Have customers pick up at deep discount until I could get a pair of heavy trucks and drivers, pure gravy from there on out.
I imagine this working in a monkey’s paw kind of way. First, the local gravel suppliers just keep mis-delivering things to places where you happen to be. Then they start talking and figure out how to get rid of you so you stop costing them so much business. You survive, skip town, only to start again. You get incredibly wealthy from re-selling all this free gravel. Eventually, mountaintops start dissapearing due to all the illegal quarrying going on…
This is much easier to do the monkey paw routine by saying "you get one free piece of gravel per 100 years.:
Not to mention the transport cost, and the usefulness of gravel as fill material on major building and infrastructure projects.
Seeing inside empty containers is way more useful than it seems.
My thought exactly. You know immediately if it’s empty
That whole Geraldo safe thing could have been avoided
I could do so much with free gravel, you have no idea.
If you have even the most-basic business sense, this instantly turns you into an uber-wealthy gravel tycoon.
ANY toaster. If you go to a wedding or any formal event with drinks, you can control whoever’s giving the toast. That could be pretty powerful.
Puppeteering at its finest.
Also, anything that generates enough heat in the presence of bread is, in fact, a toaster.
3 is overpowered, it’s basically FTL if the reload time is low
The reload time is zero, but teleporting N meters away takes N seconds. Oh, and it looks like the transporter effect from Star Trek where you fade out and get all sparkly.
Yeah teleporting 7 in if there’s no time like between teleportations is godlike.
7 inch teleport sounds genuinely useful in a fight. Also, couldn’t you just keep teleporting 7 inches? It might still be faster and easier than running.
On the other hand, infinite gravel…
There was nothing that said you can’t teleport up. Meaning you can go up and over. Almost no effort way of getting our of traffic or cleaning the gutters, fixing things up high. Or ya know essentially low flight. This is all assuming there is no cool down and its like walking.
Could be useful, but it says nowhere that your clothes will teleport with you.
Then getting dressed and undressed will be a lot faster.
Getting your tackle out; a war tradition almost as old as bonking someone on the head with a metal object.
Less practiced by armed militias and moreso ‘crackhead locals’ these days; it remains an incredibly effective tactic.
Free Gravel?
This one is clearly the best choice. That shit is expensive!
Start a gravel business, destroy the competition, and create a gravel empire.
Cover the whole world in gravel!!! MWAHAHAHAHA
I am pretty sure you can sell gravel soooo
But this gravel is free.
Not when I’m through with it.
Jesus.
Free for you, not the people you sell it to.

Okay, I’ll bite this time.
- Don’t see any use.
- Sell gravel. Become rich.
- If no cooldown you can spam and teleport anywhere as long as there’s a path between A and B
- Not sure.
- Turning on every toaster in the world at the same time would probably cripple the various power grids globally.
- If it stacks you could look quite young.
- Could probably make some money checking if safes are empty or not. Doesn’t say anything about distance. Could remotely check containers for people. Depends as well on the definition of empty.
- Would be hugely beneficial to some archeologists.
- For anyone who is unable to walk currently this would be good. What happens if you cut your legs off? Can you fly afterwards?
- Don’t see any use.
Not sureMight be useful, but who nose.
FTFY
- …Depends as well on the definition of empty.
“Yep, another container that does not contain a perfect vacuum. Should have taken the free gravel pill…”
If you pick 9 and then cut your legs off, you’ll have the ability to run as fast as Albert Einstein with his legs cut off could.
Imagine how fast that guy could go if he devoted his life to building performance accessibility aids instead of pursuing physics. He probably would have robotic cybernetic legs that outperformed any human runners.
Unless he was as skilled in robotics and engineering as a fish was at climbing trees.
The teleport 7 inches thing might be nice for getting through locked doors
I worry about those who are thicker than 7 inches. That might cause some Cloverfield Paradox shit, where your innards wind up fuzed with a door. Skinny folks only.
I mean, it doesn’t say there’s a cooldown, so in theory you could just spam it a shitton of times and no matter how thick the door is, you’ll get through it.
Unless you mix with the door and all molecules in your body mess up and you die.
The Door.
Hodor.
You know what happens if you suddenly double the number of incompressible molecules in a given area? I don’t, but I can imagine it would be explosive.
Yeah, it’d be really important to understand how the 7 inches are measured. Like…is it 7 inches in the same way I mean 7 inches when I say it? Or more like a literal-on-a-ruler 7 inches?
You appear in the closest unoccupied space.
But there’s air. Where does the air go? Maybe you can only teleport in space.
The closest unoccupied space appears to be a safe in the wall
That is exactly what I though. There are benefits to this one for sure.
You guys are sleeping on 1.
The secrets of the oysters could be yours.
You want my treasure? You can have it! I left everything I gathered together in one place! Now you just have to find it!
Free gravel! Fuck yeah!
Living in the rural area and having pretty long private road i would be really happy for free gravel.
Bonus points if i can desite how coarce it is. During winter the yard gets really icy and small gravel would make it better.
Teleport 7 inches away easy lock in:
Teleport up 7 inches on a generator perpetual motion machine.
Walk through thin walls / safes.
Repeatedly teleport forwards never have to walk again.
Teleport out of bed every morning.
Teleport out of clothes at night / sexy times
Look cool AF.
Unless your body is less than 7 inches wide, all but the first and third one of those is going to involve nightmarish scenarios of walls, clothes, etc. getting stuck in your body.
Does momentum reset after a teleport? Could I jump off a cliff and teleport left and right like going down stairs?
Then teleport again
Hell, not even that. You could become a world class boxer or UFC fighter. You can basically slip any punch or attack instantly and you can teleport your fists into the sweet spot to score a knockout. You would be an amazing baseball player as well, you can teleport to perfectly hit any ball at just the right angle. As a quarterback you would be insane too, you can readjust to any play instantly. In fencing you’d basically be unstoppable, you can dodge everything. For any sport or physical activity being able to teleport 7 inches is insanely overpowered. The person who came up with this doesn’t play any sports.
