* In the ''Podcast/CoolKidsTable'' ''Franchise/HarryPotter''-themed game ''Hogwarts: The New Class'', wizards use magic to accomplish all sorts of daily tasks, like washing dishes, doing laundry, and making luggage lighter.

** Flint from ''Podcast/TheFallenGods'' uses a book that contains all knowledge of everything that has ever happened up until now to try and see whose face he saw in the window of the Tower the night before. Tuatha uses it to look up the names of everyone she made out with the night before.

* ''Radio/ThatMitchellAndWebbSound'' has a skit in which two people consider inviting Sally [[Franchise/StarWars Vader]] and her husband to their party.

He also has "the most incredible [[LaserBlade electric carving knife]] I've ever seen".
* ''Theatre/WesterosAnAmericanMusical'': Promptly resurrecting a dead body saves other people the trouble of moving it.

In Season 5 episode 22, he morphs his arm into a blade to... cut a [[FruitOfTheLoon watermelon he somehow has]]. This gets him confiscated by Headmaster Tele, who had mentioned literally a second or two before that [[ExactWords he'd confiscate weapons he finds in the school]].
* ''Animation/{{Lamput}}'': In "Super Docs", the first things the docs do after they find superhero costumes is to use their respective abilities to do household things like use the one outfit's magnet shoes to collect and throw away some pieces of paper and use the other costume's laser vision to toast a piece of bread.

* ''WebVideo/NightmareTime:'' In the episode "Yellow Jacket," Hannah uses her psychic powers to win at an arcade game, using her powers to tell her exactly when to press the button to win a cyclone game.
