Useless Super Powers

[Ihnasir]

My friend and I just came up with this idea to name useless super powers.

Here's the examples we thought up:

-You have invisibility, but only when you close your eyes.
-You can travel in time, but only forward and at the normal rate of time.
-You can read minds, but only your own.

I wanna see what else people can come up with, go!

Making things turn into gold by touching them is the most common one I believe.

[Sky High]

how are any of those super powers?
the invisible one sure if you actually turned invisible. one i can think of is being able to control fire but only if you are on fire.

-You can travel in time, but only forward and at the normal rate of time.
-You can read minds, but only your own.

If every person on this planet has an ability i dont think it can really be described as a "super power".

- You can decrease your mass at will. Even above and beyond weightlessness on earth. But not increase it back to normal.

This is what I thought about when I read this thread.

Now, that's a good one.

-You have invisibility, but only when you close your eyes.

That's not useless at all! If I had a choice between that ability or nothing, I would go with that, for sure. It's worthwhile for defensive use alone (close your eyes and disappear), but offensive uses aren't to be underestimated, either. If blind people can move without seeing, so can you.

The ability to seduce anyone to an irresistible level, but it breaks if you make physical contact with the person.

That's not useless either! Look at all the movie/TV stars making millions with that ability.

Fast healing, but only works when you're healthy
Flight, but only a few inches off the ground and you can't move horizontally.

[MMKing]

The ability to pass into walls but not out again.

Ahh man I thought this would be like actually useless super powers. It's kind of hard thinking of a super power that really is completely useless. I mean, to the point of, if you had a super power where you could point at people and suddenly make them yell "BAGELS!!!", that could have it's uses. I mean you could trick someone into thinking they're trying to order bagels when they don't want bagels. Even growing yoghurt out of your elbows has it's uses, you could be starving in the desert for e.g, constant yogurt supply. It's really hard to think of a genuine useless super power if you put it like that.

Anyway if I had to think of something, I suppose the superpower of being the best guitarist in the world, but it only activates when you're at least five meters away from any guitar..

[Snugglees]

You have the ability to make it rain, but only when the humidity is at 100%.

[Taurenburger]

Superjumping powers, but only when you're inside a room with a height of 2,5m

[Snugglees]

The ability to shoot lightning from your hands, but only while wearing thick rubber gloves.

[Calzaeth]

- The power of flight, but only vertical.
- Teleportation, but your clothes/piercings etc. stay behind.

If I think of more. I'll edit this post :P
