I have a useless super power. Maybe one day it’ll come in handy but all it does at the moment is drive me nuts. Here it is… Picture walking onto a subway platform, department store or any public place. You’ve picked out a quiet spot all by yourself. There’s lots of room in the store or on the platform or wherever you happen to be. Then someone else arrives and decides to pick a spot beside you. People continue to gather around you while the rest of the area is completely empty. I usually end up moving to another empty area and then what happens? 
Before I know it a group of people have once again gathered around me while there’s lots of other places they could be. A lot of times I’ll go out of my way just to find a spot that doesn’t have people around it and before you know it KABLAM! I’m surrounded by people again.
This happens at the weirdest places and at the weirdest times (libraries for example). Another good example is in an otherwise empty store: There will literally be no one in the whole fucking store but for some reason everyone has decided to gather around the cans of kidney beans I’m looking at.
So there it is my useless super power: Attracting people like moths to a flame. Maybe some day it’ll come in handy but as it stands it just drives me nuts. Anyone else out there have a useless super power?
