I'll start by saying that I'd get rid of the need to shit. I'm pretty sure everyone can agree that it's unpleasant.

Thereโ€™s only one good answer to this question period.

Make everyone shit rounded rare earth metal cylinders. Suddenly we don't need Cobalt and Lithium mines any more and the worst aspects of having to poop are solved too. It's dry and doesn't stink, so no need for the toilet, just poop in your little collection bucket, no need for wiping and then you go on with your day.

Squeezing a metal cylinder out my chute sounds a lot less pleasant than just pooping poop.

[-] Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 months ago

Haha fair enough, I was thinking of multiple little ones not singular big ones. Think of bunny droppings or something.

Does the need for particular hormones count as a single bodily function? Asking for a post menopausal person.

[-] over_clox@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Sure, why not? I guess you might as well just say you would like to do away with menopause if you could, that works ๐Ÿ‘

[-] Mistic@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Surprised nobody said cell degradation.

You now can live for as long as you're not killed whilst physically keeping an appearance of an ~30 y.o. This also technically prevents cancer.

[-] RBWells@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

In the end there can be only one!

I like this, but you can't have kids and be immortal, that's a recipe for overpopulation.

Would enjoy not aging past adulthood (or not past 45, that was my "vampire age"), but life has to end unless you want all the same people around forever and no or very few new ones.

[-] UncleBadTouch@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

needing food. that would free up a lot of time and money, no input = no output. no dishes, no stove or fridge, no need for a dishwasher, then on the other end, no need for TP, or even a toilet!

Biting my cheeks or tongue while eating

[-] actionjbone@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

I would eliminate the ability for humans to reproduce.

Have you SEEN people?

[-] ocean@lemmy.selfhostcat.com 2 points 2 months ago

Have you seen a birth? Not fun

[-] over_clox@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Honestly, I have. Not in person though, but on PBS Public Television.

I do not have the parts to experience child birth, but indeed it does not look like a fun experience.

[-] null_dot@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago

Yeah so my partner gave birth to twins in a c-section.

I also do not have the parts but hoo-boy that was the experience of a lifetime, and not necessarily all fun / happy joyous.

Basically the pregnant person is on the table and they erect a sheet vertically just below her arms. Then dad (me) sits by her head and holds her hand while the magic happens.

It seemed like there was about a dozen people in the theatre, the kids each having their own team of pediatrician and nurses.

It was a complex pregnancy and while everyone is fit and well now the 48 hours following that operation were pretty terrifying.

[-] Elaine@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

As long as we can still practice.

[-] brot@feddit.org 1 points 2 months ago

Back pain is not painful anymore, but rather pleasant now

[-] Lifecoach5000@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Can I add wings? I wouldnโ€™t mind being able to fly around!

[-] radau@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago

That thing when you accidentally swallow the smallest amount of spit the wrong way and start coughing like mad

[-] Krudler@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I would like to correct the gut-brain connection. 95% of the time our gut tells our brain that it wants something, and it's trying to say it wants water, but the brain hears that the gut is hungry.

[-] over_clox@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

My gut just wants beer right now.

Have an upvote ๐Ÿ‘

[-] AwesomeLowlander@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

Surprised nobody's mentioned adding a 2nd penis yet...

[-] oppy1984@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Add Wolverine/Deadpool healing factor.

[-] POTOOOOOOOO@reddthat.com 1 points 2 months ago

I'd like to urinate from my thumbs at will.

[-] over_clox@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Who is Will, and what did he do?

๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ

[-] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Remove the need to exercise, like an anaconda. The ability to just lay around doing nothing and still be ripped to the max. That would be cool!

[-] Kolanaki@pawb.social 0 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Shitting feels good... I would just alter it so it doesn't smell bad, tastes like brownie batter, and isn't toxic.

[-] over_clox@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Excuse me, I just farted. What the fuck did I just read? ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ

Our dog is named Brownie, I'm not in any hurry to taste his batter.

Anyways, free upvotes for everyone today ๐Ÿ‘

[-] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 0 points 2 months ago

I wanted to say allergies, but I am not sure you mean abnormal stuff too.

Breathing otherwise. Annoying + can't stay underwater for long enough.

Though if add, direct thought + feeling sharing. Current communication is way too inefficient.

[-] over_clox@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Pretty much all answers here should be valid, have an upvote ๐Ÿ‘

Another thought, it would be nice if our hair didn't grow like any longer than an inch or so, where people wouldn't need regular haircuts or complicated hair styles.

I mean sure, ladies wouldn't be able to grow their hair out as is fairly common these days, but if our hair always stayed relatively short, it would be perfectly normal, and would save us the hassle of going to the barber.

[-] toadjones79@lemm.ee 0 points 2 months ago

Or just have the ability to control how fast it grows.

There was a sci-fi book a while back where all humans were gone, and all that was left was a thriving android civilization expanding across the solar system. The main character was built on the base of a sex bot, and had the ability to set the speed of her hair growth, and color. At one point she gets tied to some tracks (a city on Mercury that traveled around the planet) to be eliminated (she was a spy) and ends up getting away by forcing her hair to grow at a rate so fast it came out weak and easy to tear. Super weird book, but I thought of it when I read the comment I was responding to. And yes, on/off was part of it.
