** Earthbending is used for a soccer-like game called Earthball, and Toph uses it to make a tent and, in one episode, cheat at gambling. Omashu uses it to power a mail system and Ba Sing Se uses it to fashion together a train system.

Aang would also use it to build a new zoo for Ba Sing Se to replace the old, decaying one with larger habitats for the animals.

** ''Also'' in that same episode, The Flash and Ultra-Humanite [[EnemyMine team up]] and combine their SuperSpeed and SuperIntelligence to... repair a toy he bought for some orphans and deliver it to them in time for Christmas.


Added DiffLines:

** A Hugh Hefner {{Expy}} got his hands on the Philosopher's Stone. Yes, ''that'' one. What does he use this mythical stone, that can manipulate time and reality itself, to do? Get rich and pick up chicks. Wonder Woman is ''not'' amused.
---> '''Wonder Woman:''' Let me understand this. You possess the most powerful object in the world. And all you wished for is money and women?
---> '''Harv Hickman:''' What else is there?

** Firebending makes a handy torch, and is useful for metalworking. Although the Fire Nation's SteamPunk tech is usually powered by coal-based fire, in a pinch, you can also Firebend it directly.

** Firebending makes a handy torch, and is useful for metalworking. Although the Fire Nation's SteamPunk tech is usually powered by coal-based fire, in a pinch, you can also Firebend it directly. When Firebenders steal the hot air balloon technology from The Mechanist, they actually outright ''remove'' the heat generation technology he worked so hard to create and instead simply have two Firebender operators, one to generate heat for flight and one to throw fire offensively.

* In ''WesternAnimation/MyAdventureswithSuperman'', Clark's SuperSpeed is great for dodging attacks, saving people, and getting to the scene on time. It's also great for when Clark's apartment is a mess and he needs to tidy up in the literal second before guests walk in. Tellingly, despite his PowerIncontinence issues in the beginning, it's the ''one'' power that Clark seems to fully have a handle on, because it's just so ''useful'' in letting him preform his small heroics whilst staying out of sight.
