So you are doing DNA computing?

I got no idea what I am doing most days its a great life!

Can you turn me into a mutant? I really hope somebody is working on that kind of thing. I would love to drink a potion that gave me a superpower.

I'm thinking it would need some kind of virus that changes my DNA.

It would probably have to be a viral delivery system if it is used for genetic recombination. Then a potion wouldn't really work because stomach acids are quite effective at destroying microorganisms. It would be more efficient to get an injection. But then it would need to be targeted and everyone would get the same ability and then it would be nothing special.

If it is a latent ability, then it would already be coded in your DNA and would just need an enzyme to activate the dormant DNA sequence. The problem there, is finding unmapped part of the genome contains the superhuman abilities

Maybe I need a radioactive spider.

Dr. Jekyll had a potion, though. Black Panther and Poison Ivy both had potions.

idk.

I bet they do figure out superpowers one day, though...for real. There's people who are really strong that can just apparently fire their brains a certain way..."Muscles ignite!"

Bend nails and frying pans.

You would think it's a joke and a carnival trick but nope...they actually do bend those.

People lift cars off of loved ones. They don't even exercise.
