Flying a foot off the ground is hardly useless. Puddles, mud, deep snow… Lots of situations that would come in handy.
I was coming to say exactly this. Beyond these examples, doesn’t it also imply you could effectively walk on water? Very useful even if not. Someone with this power could rescue people stuck in minefields. I’d gladly take this superpower over none at all.
Being able to tell what tunes people like (if it covers their likes, and not only hated “stuck in my head” situations) could be cool…
For flying: T makes a good point! I’m also curious how quickly one can change direction with this flight – perhaps it’s the ability to hover, but no change in momentum, which means it’s a bit like being able to jump really, really far? ?
Now how might 50% invisibility prove useful? Other than to terrify people by pretending to be a ghost? ?
What about the Dr Horrible character known as “Moist”? 🙂 (A bit niche?)
(I noticed emojis aren’t supported in these comments, from there the double “? ?” in my comment above.)
😀 Just because you mentioned Dr Horrible, I must reply! And Moist’s powers are an excellent addition to this list for sure 🙂
Projectile vomiting and explosive diarrhea would be pretty useless, but no one would ever fight you. Not even Superman.
The best part about this one is that the last panel is factually true for chickens!!
