I can crack my elbows like knuckles by just extending my arms. My brother can do it too, but I’ve never met anyone else who can do it.
I can smell reposts and pictures I have already seen a mile away.
I walk/exist quietly. I manage to sneak up on people all the time without intending it. Probably due to an abusive father who slept in and would crack the shits if I made too much noise in the mornings.
I can smell pizza from three rooms away, does that count ? 🤔
Back in university, I studied basically all day long, which was tiresome after long sessions of study, even if with friends. My great superpower is that it used to just take me ~10 seconds of resting with my eyes closed to feel a huuuuge boost of energy that lasted for 1-2 hours. After that boost expired, I just did it again.
Incredibly useful.
Two. The first is that I can make traffic lights turn green within 5 seconds of putting the car in Park.
Secondly and perhaps more usefully, there’s a computer Problem Exclusion Zone around me. I can just stand next to a misbehaving computer, not looking at the screen and with my hands in my pockets, and it’ll start working properly.
That one again?
Apparently, criticizing inaccessible content.

people with accessibility needs can’t read thisTsk, tsk, OP.
I have abnormally good colour vision.
I have no idea what to do with this.
Found out when studying photography. We did some colour tests that get gradually harder. You are supposed to fail at some point. I kept on passing all of them. My “regular” vision is just normal though.
Predicting psychopathic behavior certainly isn’t it based on my 401k
My mouth doesn’t have the receptors to detect capsacin, the chemical that makes spicy food burn/hot. I can eat the spiciest food imaginable and it will not burn my mouth at all.
That said, those receptors exist in other parts of my body. Very often while I’m sitting on the toilet I’ll realize my dinner the previous night was particularly spicy.
Also, after more than 1/3 of a century of eating spicy food indiscriminately, my stomach lining has taken quite the beating.
Idk what my super power is but my weakness is salt. Too much and I first lose my hearing followed by dizziness and vertigo.
This must have been terrifying for the ant.
I have a blurry photographic memory.
What I mean is that I can remember where/what an item looks like but can’t read it. This was especially lame and stressful in nursing school because during a test I could recall exactly where in the textbook or PowerPoint slide the answer was, but couldn’t “read” it from said memory. Stuff like “it was in the yellow shaded an the lower inner quarter of the page, second and third billet points” or “halfway down the page, highlighted in pink, and next to it was a graphic of the Krebs cycle” Not as helpful as you might think.
I can recognize a song with just a snippet playing. My piano teacher was apparently surprised by that.
The catch is I never remember the names, just the melody/bass 😅
