Telekinesis is useless in everyday life? How does that even make sense? Telekinesis is the most useful everyday super-power(IMHO).Kahunaburger said:
OT: any small increase in sensory perception would be pretty useless, like having 20/10 vision. tactile-kinesis is pretty useless. You could do stuff with it, but not much.
The way I see it is, you got one second: what are you going to do that could possibly prevent any serious problem? Even in a fistfight, you're going to need to be more than one second ahead of your opponent.Subwayeatn said:
The best use I can think of is not dropping something.
DUDE WTF?? Great power. Professional sports, professional video games, you could make so much money off that. Not to mention being damn hard to kill, it's fucking spider-sense. I want, so bad.PureIrony said:
There's a pretty legendary useless super power that was actually in the comics a long time ago: it was the ability to make your limbs spontaneously fall off, to be used as weapons. Literally, there was a character called "arm-fall-off-boy" whose only ability was to make his arm fall off, so that he could club someone on the head with his detached arm. The pointlessness of this power is mind-boggling - if you're going to use your arm to hit someone, why not just punch them? Why detach your arm to use as a club? And isn't it a bit stupid to use your own limb as a weapon? Why not a baseball bat?
Well, okay - better reach is actually a fair point. But if you were a super hero, wouldn't you carry around a weapon all the time, like a bat or a fancy sword? Many others do. Plus, removing your arm to use as a club would endanger your arm (can you imagine using your arm to block a sword strike?) and it would basically handicap you - you wouldn't be able to defend yourself as effectively because you've only got one arm. I suppose the only advantage of this power would be to be able to temporarily remove one's limbs to fit into tight spaces, but even that's not much of a power.viking97 said:
So the power is worse that useless - it would actively handicap you in battle. It would be good only as a last ditch, last resort and even then there's probably better solutions, like running away.
The super amazing ability to turn your tongue into hamburger but the hamburger does regenerate after you eat it.
The super amazing ability to taste everything you eat as though it's a mixture of sawdust, shit and rotten ejaculate.
Or my personal favourite :

The ability to play any Tool song flawlessly. It would be a lot of fun for me, but I'd look like a complete show-off to anyone else.
The ability to shapeshift into any anime character (voice and appearance) would only have practical uses at conventions.
