Dead bushes or shrubs. They look cool in their environments, but is there even a real use for them? It takes a lot to actually be able to pick them up, and they just look stupid anywhere besides deserts.
I've used as an anti-Valentine's day thing. Dead flowers and a bottle of poison!
I could argue a "not useless" case for nearly every block and item in the game.
Air: Air is a very important block, as without it the entire world would be irreversably filled up. What would the player spawn in? What would replace mined blocks? How would you move?
Dirt: You can't have farms without dirt.
Dead bushes: Provides sticks for emergency situations, and it sets an appropriate mood in certain environments aesthetically.
Flowers: For aesthetics. Also provides dye, which can be used for, well, more aesthetic blocks and items.
Ferns: Again, aesthetics. They do provide seeds as well.
Dragon egg: As bragging rights or for a trophy room. You can actually use dragon eggs to break through bedrock using a 1.9/1.10 glitch, and you can also duplicate them using another glitch.
Prismarine: Well, no uses except for aesthetics--but that's a use in itself.
Sponges: As of 1.8 they can soak up water once again, which is a big help for clearing out lots of water.
Cauldrons: Currently they are the only piston-movable block with different output values when a comparator is connected to it, which means you can create piston loops that change redstone outputs. Very useful.
Note blocks: Cool for custom music players, which allows you to basically recreate songs or create your own. Even better with resource packs which allow you to change the sounds.
Lily pads: One of the only blocks you can place onto water, so if you're swimming out in the ocean and you somehow lose your boat, you can place a lily pad to access your crafting table and craft one. More importantly, you can access your ender chest in the middle of the ocean this way.
Rotten flesh: Wolves and priest villagers both like rotten flesh.
Diamond hoes: Some eccentric people out there need really large farms and don't want to go through a bunch of stone ones. And with Mending, you're not really wasting diamonds anymore.
Golden anything: Not only are they better for enchanting, but golden pickaxes also mine stone faster than diamond. This means you can insta-mine with only a gold pickaxe and a Haste I beacon. You can repair it on the fly with experience bottles and Mending for a longer-lasting mine session.
Compasses: Your spawn point will pretty much never be at 0, y, 0. So compasses will point you in the right direction if you haven't memorized your coordinates. They also serve as a crafting ingredient in maps, which are extremely useful for navigation.
Clocks: When placed in item frames, you can use clocks as decoration. It can also be helpful for determining whether or not you should emerge from your cave/branch mine, as during the night you may be swarmed by mobs if you're not yet geared up.
Clownfish: If you don't want to use your cod or salmon for taming that ocelot, you're in luck! But seriously, it is a bit of a stretch.
Poisonous potatoes and mundane potions: They, uh...you can...um, well, they're good for...uh...okay, I've got nothing.
Oh, if you'd like, feel free to provide any blocks and items of your own, and I'll evaluate them!
Poison Potion is pretty useless unless you rename it and want to prank a freind.
You could use them for bringing certain mobs down to one health in mob farms. They're also good for stone-based silverfish farms (you throw the poison potion; the silverfish cause the others to be awakened; the more damage they all take, the more they awaken until it snowballs into a huge avalanche of silverfish). Oh, and you can use them for PvP.
all stone monster egg blocks. they are the exact same color and all they do is spawn annoying silverfish and it is rarely used in traps for often destroying the project when accidentally breaking an egg,
but dragon eggs aren't even worth the effort and aren't even in the creative inventory, so, i am not into commands
Poison Potion is pretty useless unless you rename it and want to prank a freind.
They're pretty useful for Creeper + Skeleton situations where you want a Creeper to drop a music disc.

Yeah, that guy in the avatar is me. I'm *that* strange. It happens. Sometimes people act like that. Just go with it. I can offer help with suggestions even before you post them - NOT make your suggestions - but help you with them.

Stone monster egg blocks are useful for stone-based silverfish farms. The idea is that you create a stone generator, silverfish from a stronghold spawner pile into all the stone, and pistons keep moving the new stone monster eggs until you have a giant stone monster egg cube. Then just break some of the stone, throw a poison potion, and watch the madness unfold!
Dragon eggs are intended to be an aesthetic item only. "You beat the dragon, here's your trophy to display for all to see." You can also use them to break bedrock using an interesting 1.9-1.10 glitch.

Absolutely not, a poison 2 splash can reduce a player to half a heart in a mere 10 or so seconds, stops them from sprinting or moving well, and destroys their accuracy. I keep a regular supply on pvp servers.
I have to say flint. Sure, it can be used for flint and steels, but you only need one and then Mending has you covered. Also you can craft arrows with them, but chances are you'll have a skeleton grinder eventually and end up with way too many arrows. So that makes flint useless.

If you'd like to talk with me about other games, here are a few I play.
Team Fortress 2
Borderlands series (Borderlands 2 is my favorite game, ever. TPS combat is a lot of fun and makes up for the lower-quality story, in my opinion)
Elder Scrolls series
Warframe (IGN is something like That_One_Flesh_Atronach)
Pokémon series (HGSS forever)
Rocket League
Fallout series
Left 4 Dead 2 (Boomer files always corrupt though)
SUPERHOT (SUPERHOT is the most innovative shooter I've played in years!)
Dead Rising series (Dead Rising 2 is one of my favorite games, and the 3rd was a lot of fun. 1st has poor survivor AI and the 4th is bad)
Just Cause series
Come to think of it, I mainly play fighting-based games.

The fact that you need that flint and steel in the first place gives it a use. Sure, it's the only piece of flint you need, but that flint is very important nonetheless. There are plenty of other items that can be considered more useless because they are in no way essential to Survival and are either harmful with no other benefits or literally do nothing to help your Minecraft game--poisonous potatoes and mundane potions come to mind first.

then, i say, that the most useless item has to be the nether star. nobody goes through the hastle of killing a wither and if it does have a use then it is to confusing to understand.

Actually, dead bushes drop 2-5 sticks upon breaking now. so not useless, just close. #1.9iscool

Probably the Poisonous Potato (*note* when you eat it you have a 60% chance to get poisoned for 4 seconds)
I would say Spawn Egg...Its a white egg that can't do anything at all...You can't even place it...
Most useless item = awkward potion
Most useless thing = clouds
Thinking.
oops. XD
then, i say, that the most useless item has to be the nether star. nobody goes through the hastle of killing a wither and if it does have a use then it is to confusing to understand.
most useless item? lapis lazuli. they had to patch it for enchanting otherwise no one cared to gather it lol

pufferfish.
PUFFERFISH ARE USELESS!!!
I hate pufferfish
You use that for brewing a water breathing potion.
You need to show your EMERALDS for approval.
