Completely Useless Superpowers

Max Bemis wrote a pretty meh comic called "The Worst X-Man Ever" about a mutant who has the power to explode, but only once and then he's dead lol. So basically suicide bomber powers.

I wanna say turn yourself blind or deaf but they have benefits for sleeping, so I'm going to go with:

The ability to become illiterate.
 
The ability to know the ending of any show/movie you haven't watched yet when you acquire the power, effectively spoiling everything for you for the rest of your life.
If this applies to TV series that are just made

>Acquire power
>Request someone makes documentary about future event
>You now know the future

Also reminder to everyone that a useless superpower isn't a monkeys paw wish. "Ability to give yourself aids" is not a superpower, nor is anything minimal with some stupid downside. A useless superpower is something that is inherently a superpower, so it does something a normal human can't do, its useless not harmful.

Good way to tell if you are thinking of a monkeys paw wish is if your idea is "x but y" and y is harmful to you, and if you don't even have a y but x sucks.

>The ability to change your gender at will, but it will be minimal and you always have legit gender dysphoria. If you are a man and switch to a woman, you then feel like you belong in a mans body and vice versa.
>To have an unending erection. It never goes down, doesn't matter what you do. If you are a female, replace that with unending periods, and menopause doesn't save you here.
 
5) You can fart hard enough to create ripples in time.
I think this would be a worthwhile superpower just for the bragging rights.

My useless superpower would be a literal spider sense as in you can sense when there is a spider in the same room as you.

Best unsolved rape investigator of all time.
 
The ability to know what will happen in the next week...

...by shitting a newspaper at will that details the events in printed Sentinelese.
 
The ability to read the minds of animals, but of course, it’d be a nonsensical language. Your brain can’t translate their gibberish, and you are slowly driven insane.

The ability to teleport into space.

But you can't bring anything with you.

So you're basically naked in space and you die.
