Usually I only hear it's use in a joking tone when someone doesn't know something about a subject at hand.

I haven't been called useless in so long that I can't remember the last time it was said. I do remember that when I was called it, I was hurt and angry about it. However, I'd also try and use it as a motivator.

I don't remember being called useless. I guess I'd take a second to consider the point of what I'm doing at the moment.

People don't call me useless, because I am useful.

I promptly use that as an excuse to sit on my ass and eat doritos.




I wouldn't want to make a liar out of anybody.

I feel a little offended that people think they can judge me when they obviously don't know me (nobody who knows me ever calls me useless). But that feeling passes pretty quickly and I move on. Life it too short, and I'm far too useful, to waste time worrying about what certain judgemental people think.
