When we think about talents, we often imagine something cool, valuable and impressive. From painting to playing an instrument, these abilities immediately bring us into the spotlight and make us a teeny tiny bit better than anyone born without them.

But this online group celebrates exactly the opposite of that. Welcome to the “Learn Useless Talents” subreddit, a miscellaneous home to 694k members who share not just talents, but the most useless ones of all.

“This is a place to learn how to do cool things that have no use other than killing time and impressing strangers,” the group’s description reads, so I leave the stage to some of the best (and most useless!) posts posted here.

Slightly more useful, if you get junk mail you don't want and it has a return address on it, you can simply cross out your address and write return to sender on it. If it is addressed to someone who has died, then also write deceased on it, and they should remove them from their mailing list (it has worked on several that my late FIL was getting and they were upsetting my MIL).

I once worked for a company that sent out flyers with return envelopes. The company didn’t care at all about having to pay $2.50 for someone to send them a bunch of paper. To them, it’s worth it because that person opened the envelope in the first place. You’re only messing with the person in the mail room who has to dispose of that paper, who wasn’t even the one to mail it to you in the first place.

Sign. Now for the TRUTH. When you buy a Business Reply Mail permit you agree to pay for return mail up to 1 ounce (about 28 grams) or a postcard. The US Post Office can only 1) forward qualifying mail or 2) return mail if there is a valid return address (different from the permit address) or 3) destroy the offending mail as a 'dead letter'. You can mail a brick, but it will be discarded by the post office. Sorry. And yes, it's always been this way.

Anything over 16 ounces needs to be hand-delivered to the post office waiting for payment. A brick will be delivered to the dead-letter office while waiting for someone to pay for delivery (I worked for this type of office and they didn’t pay for anything above once ounce).

I used to work for a direct mail marketing business. We had the most wonderful, lovely people in the mail department. I wouldn't wish this on them. Seriously, people. The company doesn't care or see what you are sending. The staff that stands up 8 -12 hours per day at minimum wage opening mail and return packages do. So, have a care. Your petty fun isn't doing anything, just recycle it

    That's exactly where this technique once originated. In times when long robes were common for men, "girding one's loins" was a sysnonym for "getting ready to fight". It ist used that way even in the bible: "But you, you must gird your loins, and stand" (Jeremiah 1, 17) or "with your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand" (Exodus 12:11).

    When we speak about learning new skills, whether it’s something we’re talented in or not, it’s impossible not to address people’s obsession with improving themselves and becoming better in one way or another. Life hacks seem to be everywhere these days, from little things like easily opening stuck jar lids to more profound ones like becoming more productive and learning to use your time wisely on a daily basis.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    To better understand this phenomenon that has been everywhere on social media, we reached out to Mike Sturm, a productivity and personal growth expert, who thinks that the current obsession with life hacks is about 2 main things.

    “First, we love to be inventors and discoverers. If we believe we've come up with something no one else has, or discovered something that very few others know about, we get a kick out of it. Secondly, many of us really believe that making everything we do as efficient as possible is the way to a great life,” Sturm argues.

    I've taught the family what I call the best of both world's. Let's take the donut. I will see 1 maple bar and one Boston cream. So the person says I'll cut the maple bar in half and you do the same with the Boston.cream. Then comes the rub with kiddo's about one getting the smaller half. I say whoever cuts the other gets to choose first. That way they are cut as fair as possible. My kids are 30, 28, and 19 (no the 19 yr old is not an oop's baby)and I still hear them do it.

    KFC was a treat in our house back in the 70's , especially the breast. The rule in the house (dont ask me why) was that my brother and I ate our fries, drank our coleslaw and drank our milk before we were allowed to grab our piece of chicken . I loved the breast so I was usually first but I remember the time that my brother was going to beat me and the breast was laying there on top of all the other chicken pieces seemingly calling my name so I grabbed the breast and licked it like it was a melting soft serve cone on a hot summers day and then put it back on the pile of chicken. Mom was mad, I didnt know why, followed the rules. "But I just licked it" ( my childish excuse, and I was indeed just a child) . My mom never let me live it down. Wish she was here to tease me about it.

    On the other hand, “the problem is that if you make something super-efficient, but it's something you probably should have stopped trying to do long ago, you're not any better for it. In fact, you're probably worse off—because you've invested time and energy on this thing that really doesn't bring value to your life,” the productivity coach explained.

    Our obsession with life hacks indicates that we spend a lot of time thinking that what makes for a good life has a lot to do with how we are perceived by others. “Do they think we're cool, smart, innovative, strong, etc.? But what others think of us—even what those close to us think—is just a proxy for what's more important: are we bringing value to others? Are we uncovering meaningful truths in the world? Are we genuinely improving some small part of the world?” Sturm wonders.

    “But often times, the things that go viral and get you noticed quickly are not what brings the most value,” he added.

    It’s also worth noting that a lot of life hacks surfing online seem to be either absurd or totally useless, aka how to peel a cucumber with cling tape. In response to this, Sturm quoted Peter Drucker: "There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all."

    According to Sturm, we only get one shot at this life (that we know of). “And while I can't deny that it's fun sometimes to figure out novel ways to peel vegetables with household items, there's only a small amount of that kind of stuff that brings real value to your life. There are things that are worth working on to make more efficient. Those are the things that need to be done, because if they're not, then what's important to you will suffer,” he explained.

    I was on a bus tour where someone took a drink from a can of Coke and got stung. They couldn't stop crying, so I asked if it was a Bee or a Wasp -- they didn't know. . . .

I told them, if it was a bee, it would have left behind a stinger and a venom sack. When took a look, I could see it in the roof of their mouth. Using the tweezers from a swiss army knife, I extracted it and solved the problem.

    Only honey bees leave their stinger behind, and many species of bee can (and will) sting you multiple times.

    Please don't put a bee in the freezer. It's completely unnecessary. The human race has already effed them up so much that they don't need any more assistance from us. Especially regulating when they go to sleep. Bees are fine at taking care of themselves. Let them get on with their extremely important lives.

    Ever since I was in the army, I have been using it in regular conversation. Occasionally I encounter another phonetic alphabet nerd and we have a lot of fun. I am easily amused. Also, there are number versions. "Niner" instead of "Nine" is useful when spelling (?) numbers, in case they think I am saying "NO" in german.

    Sturm argues that what this all comes down to is getting clear on what's important to you—really important. “What do you want out of this life? What needs to happen for your life to get that way? And if you're not sure yet what you want out of life, then that's the most important thing for you to do right now,” he said and added that “no amount of finding better ways to do mundane things will find that out for you.”

    You take one layer of the thing and fold it all the way to the opposite corner. Then you take the next layer and fold it inside the pocket of the first folded layer, but a bit smaller then before. Then you do the same with the next layer. Last you basically roll it up/ fold it to look nice

    It’s saying to carry a piece of ducting with you if you are running from the cops so you can expand it, climb inside and put an end against a wall. That way when they come into the room or building where you are you just look like a part of the ventilation system

    The need to fold suggests you're like 90% of the population.. and forget to take your bag with you..1,2,3,4... 27,28,29..30ish times? I think we're supposed to treat it more like buying a Rememberance Poppy.. once you have *one* you can continue it use it but donate to the (Tesco's? environmental) cause without getting another.😂

    He moves clockwise. I don't understand how people don't realize this. My brother had a few of the books as a kid, and I figured out the pattern almost immediately. It isn't exact, but if you look at each 2-page spread like a series of quadrants, he moves either clockwise or counterclockwise in each book... at least the ones we had.

    So, all these people just have horrible hearing? No offense to hard of hearing or deaf people but I feel like the bathroom one definitely would be audible. Bathroom floors usually have tiles, so unless these people walk super softly and quietly in something like sneakers, you'd be able to hear them come into the bathroom behind you. Maybe I just have hypersensitive hearing compared to most people. That and Misophonia. And I'm very observant and use my periperal vision. Lots of people don't seem to use theirs.

    As long as there is sufficient water, i.e. not drought time, the water should have cleared away the majority of the rocks. It would be much less safe jumping away from the water where there haven't been years worth of water smoothing the area.

    What if you aren't conscious when you are in this body of water that has a waterfall? What if you can't see when or where the waterfall edge is? How would you know when to take the deep breath?

Reddit has ads and god knows that place isn't censored. Why would you censor the word "grasp"!? What's next, blocking pictures of meat because vegans might get upset? Your censoring isn't even working well. Everyone knows what you're trying to prevent people from knowing.

    Crocs are old world, gators and caimans are new world, like piranha. And as long as you're an adult human, they're not really much of a threat to you. I'd be more worried about candiru, the fish that likes to swim up urethras.
