One of the most entertaining super powers I could think of would be the ability to read minds. Knowing what people are thinking and the actions they are thinking of making would be very helpful and awesome at the same time. There could be the nicest looking person around standing near you, when really they are the one on Canada's most wanted, and he could be plotting something to kill you. If you could read his mind and figure out that he was thinking about killing you, you could get yourself out of the situation. Also, if someone else was in danger you could have the ability to save someone else from being harmed. Being able to read your teacher's mind also, would be pretty cool. If they are putting you on the spot in front of your whole class and you don't know the answer, all you would have to do is get into their minds and figure out the answer, and from them trying to make you look like you don't know what the answer is, you could look pretty smart. Say it's your best friends birthday and they won't tell you what they actually want, trying to be the good friend and just say to hangout with you... You could read their mind as to what they wanted for their birthday and make it even better than just hanging out with them. The most uncomfortable, annoying feeling to have is to not know if your parents are actually mad at you and thinking of giving you trouble for something, or if they are just going to let it slide this time. If you could read their minds, you could be ready for anything they throw at you. In addition to all of those reasons, you might have a friend who is dying to tell you one of their darkest secrets but is just too scared to tell you, you could easily just read their mind and maybe somehow bring it up to them in a more comfortable way for them so they could get it off their mind and feel better for telling you.
Those are a couple reasons why I think it would be an ideal super power to be able to read minds.
