they don't solve anything!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

No emotion is absolutely useless but if I have to choose two, it would be Sluggishness and Smugness!. Sluggishness by definition makes you feel lazy and hence is not very productive but of course one could say, through laziness, you device creative equipment or methodology to make tedious task simple!. Smugness on the other hand is just being arrogant which no one really likes, but then again some girls might find an arrogant man attractive and vice-versa!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Jealousy and insecurity

These emotions only cause more pain for everyone in the world!. They don't have anything constructive that will better the person or the people around them and to me, I don't find them to be "expressive" of how you feel because normally these things lead to negative consequences!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

boredom - it's useless cause it happens when there's nothing going on!. and the fact that you're bored means you decided to stay in a state where nothing is STILL going on!.

complacency - same as boredom!. it's the state of being content with the way things are without the drive for further improvement!. it hinders progress!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think alot of them have become mostly useless since humanity evolved to be intelligent, have language and learned about stuff!. but some although may be useless are nice to have i find!.

so apart from those i think my two candidates would be!. shyness and anger/hatred!. because they're pretty pointless and i find undesirable!.

but other people found alot of good ones, choosing only 2 is tough!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Perhaps they are anger and fear!.

Anger serves no purpose, stops one from personal growth and from positively interacting with others!.
The physical and emotional stress caused the same can have very bad effects on ones self as well as on others!.

Fear keeps one locked away from life rather than allowing one to live, to experience and thereby to know!.

Be well!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Regret and self pity

Both of these emotions cause one to waste life and live as prisoners to their past!. Life is the present and each day is a new opportunity and they are missing it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Fear and hope!.

Fear, because it is primarily conditioned illusions - about self and others!.

Hope, because it separates us from the experience of full aliveness in the Now!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

1!. Love - Because you are at your most vulnerable and will most likely get hurt!.

2!. Happiness - Because it is only fleeting!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Fear, and sadnesss
There is no reason to fear the world around you!.
And Sadness, if you spend your life being sad then you wasted your life!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

envy and anger

Envy leaves you feeling crappy (useless)

Anger - hell hath no fury as a woman scorned!. Stupid but true!. Anger has the capability to poison peopleWww@QuestionHome@Com

Apathy and self doubt!. When you doubt yourself you don't accomplish anything, and apathy is not feeling anything!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
