[ WP ] You are a superhero by the name of Groundhog . For example , you can relive a fight with a villain thousands of times until you beat them etc . That 's your ONLY power .

Forgive me, but I'm flipping this around. 
 
 
 *********** 
 
 
 For years I wanted to rule the world. Unfortunately, I had no powers to do so, so I invested heavily in technology to aid me in doing so. No matter what I tried, though, there was always someone who stood in my way. He had chosen what was probably the worst name imaginable. It was a horrible pun on his own first name. Invincentble. Even with the name, he was always able to foil my plots. Earthquake generator to level Nashville? Foiled. Attempt to further the Cuban Missile Crisis? Also foiled. I assumed the reason was that I had no actual powers, so in an effort to do so, I created an interdimensional portal to see if there was anything I could use in other universes. When I activated it, though, a burst of tachyons flooded my system, causing me to pass out. While I was unconscious, the portal destabilised and filled the room with what should have been lethal radiation. 
 
 
 When I came to, I constantly found myself ‘ glitching ’ back a minute or two. Eventually I was able to control it, and before long I was mindfully jumping back an hour or two to fix a poor situation I had found myself in. Perhaps this was a way I could finally beat Invincentble? 
 
 
 I started on my latest and ‘ most likely to succeed ’ plot - a mind erasure beam. After many, many attempts to erase Invincentble ’ s mind, on the 524th attempt, I finally did it. He fell out of the sky and hit the ground with a thud, drooling and gibbering like the village idiot. 
 
 
 He slipped into a coma later that night, and I took over the world. Turns out, there isn ’ t much resistance if you wipe the minds of the world ’ s leaders and military. It was too easy. Invincentble never woke up from the coma he was in, even after 10 years of ruling the world. Everything felt a little emptier, and I grew bored. The moon was used as a bombing zone, and I used a few countries as giant landfills. The years continued to pass, and I fell into a great depression. 
 
 
 I had to do something, this felt instinctually wrong. 
 
 
 I turned back the hands of time to just before I activated the portal. 
 
 
 “ Don ’ t do it, ” I told myself. “ You ’ ll only ruin everything. ” 
 
 
 “ Isn ’ t this what we wanted? ” I asked myself. 
 
 
 “ No. What you want is not in that portal. What you want is not world domination. What you need is not what you think you need. This portal will destroy your life. ” 
 
 
 ‘ Past Me ’ looked terrified. He immediately went and tore down the portal, destroying all of his research. 
 
 
 I ’ m just waiting to pop out of existence, but I haven ’ t yet. I ’ m wondering if I ever will, or if the universe is making me face the consequences of my actions. Maybe we can ’ t just get out of things by causing them to not happen. Perhaps we have to live with what we do in any universe and any timeline. I ’ ve probably caused a paradox. It could end the universe as we know it, or it may not. Whatever happens, I have to live with it now, since I can ’ t travel forwards in time. I ’ ll probably send myself back to a simpler time and start a new life with what little time I have left. Time travel has aged me visibly. I ’ m 35, but I look at least 45. 
 
 
 Don ’ t do time, kids.
