What are some interesting magic items you wish existed in real life? If you could pick just one, what would it be?
I know there are obvious answers like Holy Avengers and powerful armor, but in real life you wouldn't be able to use those things very well (not without getting arrested, which yes, would still happen even if you had a Holy Avenger).
So if you could have one what would it be?
I think for me top of the list might be Flying Carpet or Broom... since I could avoid rush hour traffic. Though of course there are questions about whether the FAA might try to regulate it (actually, it's a certainty that they would).
A Bag of Holding would also be quite useful.
Ring of Wishing sounds great but... Wishes can be incredibly dangerous and back-fire quite easily so I'm not sure I'd want to play with that particular fire.
There are some good potions but if I only get one item, I'd probably want something that works forever...
I think in the end I'd go with the Flying Carpet. Especially since more than 1 person can use it (at least if you get one of the larger ones).
So what would you like to have as a magic item in real life?

WOTC lies. We know that WOTC lies. WOTC knows that we know that WOTC lies. We know that WOTC knows that we know that WOTC lies. And still they lie.

The Cloak of Billowing reminds me of the Seinfeld episode in which George's father is with a man wearing a cape, and how unusual it is in today's world to wear things like cloaks and capes...

A luckstone could come in handy. I'd probably have to go with a dread helm (for when you want to scare your friends) or a periapt of health (So I'd never get sick).

*I would put it on my hand, like any normal person.*
no way, toe ring at the least...your hand is like the number one most likely thing to get chopped off, besides your head of course. plus on your finger, it would just attract attention.

Who, in the modern world, would want to chop off my hand? Also, so what if it attracts attention? As long as I don't do anything to get it stolen, it should be fine.

If no one wants to chop of your hand, why would you take the ring of regeneration?

Decanter of Endless water
A fool pulls the leaves. A brute chops the trunk. A sage digs the roots.
My Improved Lineage System
Alchemy Jug might also be nice, except not nearly as cool as flying.
Bag of Tricks Would also be cool. You would have your own little menagerie wherever you go!
Anything that let's you cast a magic spell, would be awesome!
Decanter of Endless Water would also be nice. Bring it to a desert, or use it to give everyone free water!
The one I would pick? Of course, Cloak of Billowing! Wouldn't that be so cool? Just go anywhere and make your cloak billow! The cool factor...
Scroll of Tarrasque Summoning would be interesting, if you are evil.
Daern's Instant Fortress would be nice. You can just use it as your home.
Feather Token The ones that's aren't consumable are mostly nice.
Glamerweave would be very cool. It could actually contest with the cloak of Billowing.
When players get creative.
Those are cool choices.

Periapt of Health is a good call... especially with the Pandemic.
Also for potions, Longevity might be worth it... single use but makes you younger, and effects are permanent.

Gem of Seeing.
I would hand them out to a number of posters here, and the WOTC C-Suite, and end this nonsensical march towards a bad business decision.
