I once read a short story about the downsides of being invisible. Having to watch for cars because they can’t see you. Strangers slamming into you on sidewalks because they don’t know to sidestep and avoid you. And in the cases where only your skin turns invisible rather than clothing, there’s those winters. The “girls shower room” scenario got old and boring really fast. And eating was disgusting because he could see the food until it was fully digested. Bleh.
Another wrote on the disadvantages of invulnerability. Imagine being invulnerable, but without super strength and getting trapped under a collapsed building or land slide for decades… or getting put in prison and sitting there until humankind dies off and the walls literally corrode around you.
Yeah being a super hero isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. And apparently if you’re a female super hero evidently the requisite costume is a bikini.
Stan dude, you were a perv. Not speaking ill of the dead, just making a point. At least the X-Men movies gave them believable body armor. And Superman, really guy, your fashion choice was seriously goofy.

I understand your anger, Brewster. Motion-detecting faucets and towel dispensers in public restrooms often act like I’m invisible.

Being invisible at work would have its advantages, though. I could actually get stuff done without being interrupted 20 times a day!

When Wayne was a character on Canadian TV before appearing on Saturday Night Live, he would read editorials that always ended, “I blame society.”

People used to treat my little ’66 Dodge Dart like it was invisible.
Nowadays they mainly just ignore motorcyclists and pedestrians
