I'll go first. Mine is the instant knockout drug. Like Dexter's intramuscular injection that causes someone to immediately lose consciousness. Or in the movie Split where there's the aerosol spray in your face that makes you instantly unconscious. Or pretty much any time someone uses chloroform.

Omg the Thanos thing drives me CRAZY and I don't know why everyone else just gives it a pass.

There was no attempt at diplomacy with Thanos. If they just had a few diplomats talk about their needs, Thanos would have realized pretty quick that killing half of the humans wouldn't be the best way to obtain his goal.

Here's the proposition: how about you snap your fingers and make 99% of the population of overpopulated species sterile?

It would be wayyy more effective at meeting Thanos' goal (of reducing suffering caused by overpopulation) and literally nobody has to die!
