In a world where superheroes dominate the box office and graphic novels line our bookshelves, we often daydream about what it would be like to possess extraordinary powers. We’ve all imagined flying like Superman, wielding Thor’s mighty hammer, or becoming invisible to avoid those uncomfortable everyday situations. But what if we told you that there’s a whole range of, let’s say, unconventional superpowers that exist in the real world but never make the cut? The ones that won’t save the planet but might earn you a few laughs or raised eyebrows? Well, my fellow superhumans-in-waiting, this blog post is all about that.

We spent more time than we should have reading this thread where people revealed their useless superpowers, no matter how silly or freaking cool they may be. We collected the best responses and compiled a list of superpowers that are equal parts quirky and comical, showcasing the unique abilities and strange talents that make some humans wonderfully weird. From an uncanny ability to predict time with scary precision to a strong sense of hearing that allows you to listen to two conversations at a time, these unusual skills may not be on par with the X-Men. Still, they’re sure to make these people the talk of the town… or at least of their group of friends.

In an era that celebrates superhumans as deities, it’s time to give the limelight to the underdogs and their peculiar powers. We scoured all corners of the thread to find the most amusing and captivating superpower confessions. So, strap on your metaphorical capes and get ready to discover a treasure trove of hilariously useless abilities that may not save the world but will undoubtedly make it a more interesting place. From the bizarre to the downright side-splitting, this list of superpowers will remind you that sometimes, being ordinary is truly extraordinary.

40 People Reveal Their Useless Superpowers That Are Somehow Cool, Funny, Or Weird "I can read really fast, hard to prove to people though and if I get into a real flow people just think I'm flicking through a book too quick and don't believe me.

I read so fast that if I read out loud I trip over the words on the page, I'm reading them in my head faster than saying them so I'm always a few words behind. In my head though yeah it just flows like water."

I've had cats come running out of side streets and houses just to say hello and get some scritches. Outdoor cats who have never interacted with me before let me pick them up, and if my partner wasn't allergic I would have adopted an army of strays who just followed me home by now.

    And it's actually not completely useless - I work as a cat sitter."

    This can and has been extremely useful for a lot of my gal friends. If they were ever in doubt about a dude (couldn't decide if his behavior was problematic or not) they'd introduce me and watch if I reacted negatively to them.

    It's useless because when you have this starting a young age it can REALLY screw you up. You start getting flooded with noticing other people's negative reactions around you when you're too young to understand that they're not because of you. F*cks up your self esteem and is a recipe for chronic depression that translates into chronic social anxiety. I'm ok now, all handled and taken care of as an adult."

    When I was little, I read a book called "The Girl with the Silver Eyes" about a little girl who had telekinesis. It mentioned several times how she would push up her glasses without touching them, which, as a seven-year-old glasses wearer, I thought was really cool - so I set about trying to teach myself how to do it! (This is going somewhere, I promise! LOL!) I would sit and concentrate and concentrate, straining every muscle in my lil head and...gasp! Eventually, over a length of time that I can't remember because it was 40 years ago, I realized I could move my glasses a little bit! I was SO STOKED!! I WAS GONNA BE TELEKINETIC! This, Pandas, is how I taught myself to wiggle my ears!

    "You know that scene in Big Bang Theory where it's all Sheldon's personalities in his head having a meeting. Instead of that every role I've ever played (dnd character, role in a musical, etc.), it is permanently stuck in my head. Sometimes, I go into a British accent just because I've played a British character."

    "I somehow can remember random things about celebrities. I'm not particularly interested in celebrities, and it's rare that I look up anything about them. Yet somehow just random details I see on like the cover of a magazine in the checkout line of the grocery store, or something I overhear at a bar, I'll remember for years, but only about this one specific niche topic, so it's not like a real eidetic memory.

    People tend to think I'm super into pop culture as a result of this random knowledge all the time. Completely useless."

    It actually makes me angry how much I know about the Kardashians, the Royal family, etc. They add absolutely nothing to society, I've never watched their show, why do I know all there names and marriage situations ?

    "I can't control it, but sometimes when I'm holding something in my hand and I stop paying attention to it the object will teleport somewhere within 10 feet of me. It can be right next to me, inside something I haven't touched in 3 years, or anywhere in between."

    My mother always chooses movies or TV shows to play in the background that have semi-explicit scenes when guests are coming over. Bonus power: the scene always starts either when the guests are entering the room or we're just about to eat.
