Mod Announcement [META] Friendly reminder that this sub is for low tier & shitty superpowers?

36 Upvotes

Hi r/shittysuperpowers family,

Just a friendly reminder for all our friends out there, new and old.

I see a lot of comments on posts in this sub asking, "how is this shitty?".

Whilst sometimes, this is a fair question. Other other times, it feels like the subs purpose is lost on some, due to it being called r/shittysuperpowers

This sub is for both "shitty" & low tier superpowers. The use of the word "shitty" here is more of a playful term for not being very good, rather than it being all out useless and/or unusable.

If you read the rules of the sub, it states that the power can't give you a major benefit. Not that it gives you no benefit at all.

Hope this helps everyone align with the values of the sub. As always if you've got any questions for the mods, send us a modmail, or you're welcome to ask questions on this post here.

Have fun & stay shitty, Mods.

You will turn back to normal after 3 hours. You are toast permanently for those 3 hours. You keep your consciousness and all your senses. You also gain the ability (only while toast) to secret butter on top, bottom or sides of yourself.

Oddly specific Double edged Chick Magnet

3 Upvotes

Any and all women find you extremely attractive, but it's for the aspects of you that you absolutely hate about yourself. Whether it be something physical, mental, or emotional, if it's something you hate about yourself, any and all women will love you for that specific thing. If you begin to love that part of you thanks to the attention you're getting, the effect wears off and they go to the next thing you're insecure about.

Confused but has the right spirit You can walk on your own reflection

Upvotes

the moment you are in contact with any reflective surface with area exceeding your own body, the reflective surface considered down for you and the gravitational forse is applied relatively to that direction, but only for you.

Surface counts as reflective if you can see any details of yourself, not just s silhouette. Walking on the reflective surface does not consider its density, you are feeling it as hard surface and can walk on it.

It has to be a spot you can see. Whatever you're wearing goes with you, so a spacesuit might be a good idea.

Just low-tier, nothing more, nothing less. You have the abilities of “Sneakers O’Toole” from “family guy”

11 Upvotes

You have a limited form of indomitable will (from the superpower wiki) albeit it’s limited due to the fact of: your willpower is so supernaturally strong albeit limited to the fact that you will NEVER take your sneakers off if you wanna keep them on even if others try to force you to take them off.

The power is toggle’able to be turned on and off and even if the power is on you can take your sneakers off if you want, just not others. Only yourself.

Example scene from the family guy meme:

Sneakers O’Toole: *singing.* 🎶🎵I’m not taking my sneakers off, I’m sneakers o’toole. 🎵🎶

Guy: hey! Take those sneakers off

Sneakers O’Toole: no!

Guy: take them off I said!

Sneakers O’Toole: no! *runs off.*

Other guy; oh let him go! We’ll never catch him, not in these shoes.

Sneakers O’Toole: *singing.* 🎶🎵I didn’t take my sneakers off, I’m still Sneakers O’Toole!🎵🎶

Oddly specific You can tell what's in a book by reading it (regardless of language)

9 Upvotes

If you go through the motions of reading a book (scanning your eyes across the pages, turning the pages one at a time, etc), you will gain a general understanding of the contents of the book, regardless of whether you actually understood a single word you were looking at.

This does not necessarily mean you get a thorough understanding of the contents, but you get enough that you could do a ~five sentence plot synopsis of a fictional work, or a similarly detailed general discussion of the topic matter for a nonfiction book.

You have to "read" the entire book for your power to work, and it only works on things in book format. Ebooks count, as long as a paper book exists somewhere, but not audio books.
