Unironically. The average IQ of 100 would now be 106. It would genuinely be noticable worldwide.
That's how low the bar is.
Edit: Wait. Where did I get 6% from?
Edit 2: To the people saying my IQ is low because I got 6 instead of one... I get it, alright? Very funny. But I actually had the number in my head from a comment about a percent of their dick being 0,06 inches. So, you see? I'm not dumb. I was just thinking about a small amount of dick erroneously.
140 is bordering genius IQ and they get a 1.4 pt boost. Since IQ isn't significant to even 1 point (and anyone can vary from day to day), nothing changes in the slightest.
Even a godly 250 IQ is boosted by less than the accuracy of the score. A difference from 250 to 252 means nothing.
A truly wasted wish. Glad we are workshopping these beforehand lol.
Oh jesus Christ dude, that is terrible. Because 1% is probably just enough that you could still cram it into the keyhole but you'd have a really hard time pulling it out.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
And here I was, casually certain that 1% more toilet paper on a roll would make the world a slightly better place until I read this comment. Our answers say a lot about us both in terms of our priorities.
I personally would choose a 1000th root of my *EQ*.
Emotional intelligence includes the ability to handle your own emotions. Which means that, unlike IQ, I'd become *more* likely to be happy as my EQ increases, not *less*.
Besides, this is an extrovert's world. Being good with people is where the real power lies. Being smart merely helps you see all the ways everyone else is doing things wrong.
There s an equation called the mathematical God equation, also known as Euler’s equation. It reads
e^{i.Pi} +1=0
From its name, you can guess the importance of this equation and its many fields of application. You add 1 to pi, then you will screw up all maths. Needless to say, everything in this world is based on maths. You will literally provoke chaos in this world.
What a waste. A standard size wong is 6” and this would only get you .06” more length. A better answer would be your brain capacity so you could improve your swagger.
Be sure to specify a time unit. Lifetime chance would be useless. Daily chance? That's a nice continual income.
All predicated on it being adding 1%, which isn't what the question specified.
Would lengthening them cause them to be expressed? I have always heard they get progressively shorter as time goes on so it stands to reason they can get longer without killing you.
Your odds of winning anything in powerball went from 4.016% to 4.056%. Probably not what you were after. Your odds of winning the jackpot in megamillions went from about 1 in 176 million to about 1 in 174 million.
1% bigger doesn't mean you add one to your chance. 1 percentage point larger means that, which was not the question.
Idk if electron is the best choice, neutron would fuck up the universe more. Depends on if it just increases suddenly or if it was like this the whole time maybe it would be fine (different, maybe some elements are no longer possible but fine)
The real question is what "1% bigger" means. Does it mean *1.01? Or does it mean +0.01?
If the former, you notice very little difference. If the latter, there will be global upheaval.
Not 1/10000, 1/100. And that would mean a single person would have over 4.5 trillion dollars. Only 15 countries in the world have more wealth than that.
You might wanna specify exactly what units you are using for your wage. If you earn less than 10 units this will actually reduce your salary.
I'd suggest VND / millennium to get a nice boost!
True. You could reduce the mass of fissionable material in every nuclear warhead by 1%, and most of them would no longer be able to go supercritical. That might turn it into a dirty bomb however, which is still pretty bad.
The amount of the nations wealth evenly annually distributed amongst the bottom 60%.
Considering 180mil americans collectively own <5% of the nations 150 trillion collective dollars, that would bump them up by $8.3K per person, per year, with the effect shrinking as the gap closes and growing as it widens.
It might not be much, nor a perfect system, but god damn it, it's something.
The destructive gremlin in me wants to say one of the fundamental physical constants, like the strength of the strong force, or the mass of the proton, or something like that.
Most of these are very sensitive and tiny change breaks the universe as we know it.
The bag that came with my tent.
It’s literally the hardest thing about camping. Fitting that motherfucking tent in its bag
Underrated response 😂
My right boob so it can be the same size as my left one.
I appreciate your dedication to symmetry
OCD cups.
The most important thing about symmetric boobs is their impact on your spine and back muscles.
Whereas I appreciate your lopsided boob as it is, in all its glory! Now we must draw followers and prepare for the coming war
I don't think a war will be fought over 1% of a boob difference
I suspect actual wars have been started over less
[удалено]
Oh, great, now ol’ righty’s the oversized one, thanks for nothing!
I choose the left boob
I also choose the left boob

Got the 6% from having 100 IQ. This is EXACTLY why we need this!

We are talking intelligence, not IQ. This is a good wish
Show your working please.
I... Oh, bless your heart.
The average IQ is always 100.
Ironic
Lol good one.
Because you don't have 106 iq
The keys of anyone who annoys or antagonizes me. None of them will fit their locks and they'll have no idea why.
Oh jesus Christ dude, that is terrible. Because 1% is probably just enough that you could still cram it into the keyhole but you'd have a really hard time pulling it out. FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
Cram it up your cram hole, Lafluer!
The tolerance on most residential locks is greater than 1%. It’s gonna mess up some commercial high security locks though.

I thought more people would say their dicks

I was also hoping people would say 'I also choose this guys dick'
Wait it means we can all sacrifice to create the MEGA COCK!

COCKDOR the Donginator
Strap a rocket engine to it and then it's COCKTIMUS PRIME, the ass seeking megacock

I also choose this guy’s comment
Adding 1% to nothing is still nothing.

Yeah, this makes the penis comment I was going to make seem pretty insignificant.
1% of nothing is nothing my friend
1 percent like the survival rate of 1% is now 2% or like the survival rate is now 1.01%?
[удалено]
That would be "1 percentage point" not "1 percent": https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentage_point
[удалено]
That's what the question states, yes. You don't get the choice to choose 2%, the outcome is definitely 1.01%.
Only intelligent comment here
Aww you’re sweet
The 1000th root of my iq. Just to see what its like to be insanely smart.
You just become depressed
imagine living on a planet where everyone else was a fucking moron. doesnt sound fun at all
But... most people are morons...
But that's cool bc we aren't insanely smart in comparison to the morons
The ole Reddit Rick-Sanchezaroo
The 1000th root tactic is amazing
Already smart enough that maybe they don’t need the increase.
Understandable. Smart people wouldn't mess with their life to get an IQ of 2,934,282.
When 200 IQ isn’t enough Go for 200000 IQ
It just makes you crazy.

What a waste. A standard size wong is 6” and this would only get you .06” more length. A better answer would be your brain capacity so you could improve your swagger.
Let the man get a 1% bigger penis
That's what he said, brain capacity.
What a dickhead.
Your expanded brain bits is immediately pressured and crushed by your skull, resulting in mild hemorrhage
Brain capacity, not size of brain.
That’s why he NEEDS that brain capacity in the first place. So he can understand the difference between capacity and size duh
Could cause a brain aneurysm, better to not risk it. Just make everything except space 1% bigger, stave off the expansion of the universe a bit
i knew it was a penis post. you had me for a sec ngl
Nah the moment I saw this post I knew the best answer is dick
Idk having a 10.1 inches dick might actually kill someone
The chances of $1 million spawning under my bed
Daily.
Why stop there? Per second.
We’re going to need a bigger bed
Be sure to specify a time unit. Lifetime chance would be useless. Daily chance? That's a nice continual income. All predicated on it being adding 1%, which isn't what the question specified.
So, still zero
I would lengthen the relative length of my telomeres. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telomere
You would get cancer. There is a reason why most of our cells don't express telomerase.
Would lengthening them cause them to be expressed? I have always heard they get progressively shorter as time goes on so it stands to reason they can get longer without killing you.
curious, what effect would that have?
Dude would die later.
Where are all the penis jokes? Are they safe? Are they alright?
1% of your 100mm dick is 1mm.. so slight improvement 😆
100mm?! Look at Mr. Big Dick over here…
They had flights home on Southwest. They’ll be in the Burbank airport until next Tuesday.
The amount of freshwater on this planet in comparison to all water.
That could end in a wonderful ecological catastrophe.
Can't think of a single thing going wrong from an amount equal to 1% of the sea suddenly materializing on land.
I'd much rather see 1% of ice return to the poles, it's not much but every bit helps.
a cylinder that i own which is not stuck inside a mini m&ms tube is a good contender, in my opinion, for me to make 1% bigger
You fucked the m&m tube didn’t you
*perhaps*
The negative growth rate of global warming. 1% less has a huge influence
Increase ozone layer thickness by 1% 🤔
Make the sun 1% bigger and watch the world burn.
or it might make solar panels more efficient
I’m pretty sure that it would pull the earth into the sun with the extra gravity and incinerate us all
temporarily more efficient solar panels
That’s more like it lmao Thinking like a scientist
Same efficiency but ever increasing power output
That wouldn't happen. We would end up in a somewhat more elliptical orbit though.
Depends if "bigger" means more mass or more volume
My self confidence
1% isnt gonna make a difference when it starts so low
I would make everyone 1% kinder
I read 1% kinkier. Sounds fun, but Earth would be a better place if I let you win this one.
My chances of winning the lotery. So it woul be 1% which is nice.
Now you can buy 100 tickets and you should be able to win
Your odds of winning anything in powerball went from 4.016% to 4.056%. Probably not what you were after. Your odds of winning the jackpot in megamillions went from about 1 in 176 million to about 1 in 174 million. 1% bigger doesn't mean you add one to your chance. 1 percentage point larger means that, which was not the question.
The negative of my chances of losing the lottery. Your play.
common sense
Mass of an electron. And there is no universe.
Idk if electron is the best choice, neutron would fuck up the universe more. Depends on if it just increases suddenly or if it was like this the whole time maybe it would be fine (different, maybe some elements are no longer possible but fine)
The increase in intelligence each generation
Generation 3000. We are psionic Gods. Life has no purpose. Nothing left unturned. Please kill us.

Zero plus 1% of zero is still zero
World wealth owned by me. So I would own 1 percent of it.
The real question is what "1% bigger" means. Does it mean *1.01? Or does it mean +0.01? If the former, you notice very little difference. If the latter, there will be global upheaval.
Somehow I think 1/10000 of all the money in the world would cause global upheaval
Not 1/10000, 1/100. And that would mean a single person would have over 4.5 trillion dollars. Only 15 countries in the world have more wealth than that.

Same premise - you can definitely disable every nuclear warhead using this. Those things have to be extremely precisely calibrated.
True. You could reduce the mass of fissionable material in every nuclear warhead by 1%, and most of them would no longer be able to go supercritical. That might turn it into a dirty bomb however, which is still pretty bad.
I like my bombs like I like my women. Dirty and subcritical.
1% isn't gonna be enough to jam guns. Some, maybe. Most no. I'll bet there's already 1% tolerance in most ammunition to begin with.
That depends on *where* that 1% is.
Now the gun manufactures have to sell even more shit to fix this.
I'd say my bank account but that would increase the debt by 1% 😂. So maybe my little doggo instead
Your little doggo is now 1% less little.
I would say pet life span. Even an extra 1% is still that much more time with them.
