I have an uncanny ability to figure out the optimal size container to use to store leftovers. Kneel before my power!

I can tell whether a food has milk in it simply by eating it and waiting a few minutes.

It’s kind of a shitty superpower, to be honest.

Took me a while to realize that this is actually a real life superpower, but - I can fix things. Throw it away? Meh... Repairing, upcycling? Bring it on!

Being unphased by traumatic situations. At least right away. If a loved one dies or there’s a terrorist attack, I feel nothing until usually months go by. It then hits me randomly and I get as upset as you’d expect one to at the beginning.

I can cook minute rice in 55 seconds.

Being able to lose anything I put my hands on. Not a good power, but it's all I got.

Apparently, lucid dreaming. Been doing it my whole life, requires no effort to initiate.

I know when a timer or alarm I set is about to go off. This sometimes works for timers I thought I set, so it's kind of useful.

For alarms, It means I wake up a minute before the alarm

Creepily excellent memory...although only for things that are pointless or people would really rather I didn't remember.

I have really good reflexes for catching things that are falling. I don't even have to think about it - if something is falling near me that's catchable, my hand will just reach out and catch it 9/10 times. Seems I can override it for dangerous things like kitchen knives. Most of the time, nobody ever sees it happen, so it's also a hidden talent, lol.

I find that I'm really calm in emergency situations. When someone (including myself) gets hurt, I have a way of being the guardian in the room that stays calm and gets things done.

I broke my wrist pretty bad at the start of the year, to the point that I had surgery done and now have a metal plate and 7-8 screws. When it happened, I was oddly in fucking zen mode--despite the pain. I called my wife calmly, instructed someone to call an ambulance for me (made sure to specify non-emergency since it was a closed fracture), and made jokes at the hospital and in the ambulance. I was even taking selfies during all of the hospital procedures so that I could document it.

Outside of that, I'm an anxiety and ADHD-riddled mess that can barely make a decision on what snack to eat, and feels like he's productive at nothing.

I forget the plots of movies and books fairly fast, and I'm able to enjoy them "for the first time" many times.

Maybe self-learning. I always learn new stuff using the Internet by myself without asking anyone.

Superpower: catching dropped objects in mid-air, including objects dropped by other people standing near me.

Unfortunately it's a function of hypervigilance, which is quite hard on my nerves.

Not really a super power, but I’m deaf since birth, hearing aids since 3 months old, and I can read lips from ten feet away, which means that I can follow a conversation perfectly fine bc I can read lips, while everyone else has to have someone shouting in their ear from a foot away in noisy environments.

I can go anywhere there is alcohol present and not drink it.

Very accurate sense for when shit is about to hit the fan and it's time to GTFO.

.......comes from having PTSD and a whole lot of trauma, but hey, I'll take what I can get.

Bit embarrassed to admit this, but I used to seriously believe I had the ability to read woman’s minds.

I used to walk into a party/bar and instantly know if I was going to have sex with a particular woman. This was virtually infallible. (Disclaimer: This didn’t happen every time I went to a party, nor did I necessarily choose the woman, but every time I felt that feeling I was right.)

Turns out many years later I realized I just had a good understanding of woman’s body language. And could tell when a woman found me attractive enough, and was horny enough, to let me pick her up.

FTR I do feel foolish for ever thinking I had some supernatural ability with women, but I was somewhat attractive and charming, so that went to my head.

I have cat-like night vision, and can see just fine in lighting that most people would call "pitch black".

I can hang things straight without using measurement tools. I just ‘sense’ it is straight. A nice power to have.

I don't cry when I chop onions. If I'm chopping dozens of them, everyone needs to get out of the kitchen because the air will get potent (but I won't notice).

Grit. Most people think I have some sort of innate natural ability with everything I do. In reality, I just persevere through difficulty and failure, as many times as it takes to arrive at success. The downside is that I have a decent number of things I have tried that I probably should have given up on sooner.

I have color-grapheme synesthesia. I can use this super power to.. Uhmm.. It won me a bet once? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/...

None. Im incredibly human and typically so. Nothing unusual or worth investigating at all. 100% human for sure.

I can hear the most minute of sounds. Even my kitten walking around downstairs (on a marble floor).

On the other hand, I hear way too much noise and have great trouble understanding speech because of it.

Just last week, it allowed me to hear the spinning of wheels stuck in mud a couple of klicks from my house, while I was eating dinner. Apparently someone got stuck in one of the muddy holes caused by the rains, in the middle of nowhere. Dropped him off at his place, and got the car freed the next day.

I can quickly, with minimal info, triage the work/inconvenience ratio of any given leisure activity and determine whether it is vaible as entertainment.

Good navigation ability and sense of where I am in relation to landmarks, places and even celestial bodies. Also works for time.

Some of my friends need phone GPS just to get around the city they’ve lived in for 15 years!

I'm very good at finding four-leaf clovers. Its a skill i developed in little league baseball when the coach would always put me in right field, which the kids never hit to because it was little league. So i just stared at the ground and looked for 4-leaf clovers. I kept finding them all throughout my childhood, and my parents alwats told me i'd diluted the luck from one of those things so much that they each only gave me enough luck to find the next 4-leaf clover.

I can think selflessly.

Very sensitive smell so i can tell somethings burning or notice dangerous smells much quicker then everyone else tho it feels more like a curse cause a lot of smells are overwhelming and makes me sick.

My farts can clear a room in record time.

Increased probability that anything I put down or toss on the bed, etc, will fall off and hit the floor instead. In reality, it's probably just a poor sense of propioception.

I can figure out how most software and mechanical systems work by poking around them.

I know what time is it pretty much all the time, with tolerance of 5 minutes, usually I'm in tolerance of ~3 minutes or less.

In real life people trust me, even if they don't know me. It's the middle aged white lady superpower. Apparently we are the group of people who are deployed to do surveys about personal habits, health, sex, because people trust us.

When younger (and still to some extent) I also seem to get picked out of crowds way more often than statistically normally for things where performers are choosing someone from a crowd. My mom thought it was remarkable, there could be a thousand kids in an audience but always I was picked out to go on stage. And no, I am not exceptional looking, it was not due to looks.

Hardly a super power, but I can rather accurately when meat is done by judging firmness of it. It's what you get when you cook it frequently

I have a couple, and I love teaching my niece and nephew about them! Most superpowers can be learned with a bit of hard work! I taught my nephew how to switch between "eye contact" and actual direct eye contact when he needs to make sure his point is heard. He told me last Christmas that he still uses that trick on his parents and teachers and it works. I learned it in a sales job. My other super powers include speed reading (which my niece absues to get her assigned reading done faster), guessing people's coat and pant sizes, and predicting peoples actions, emotions, etc. I'm no Sherlock Holmes, and attribute this last one to being adhd, but I was able to pass some of that onto the kids, and I think it helped them a lot. I think its important to see people clearly, like knowing the diffrence between someone being violent or angry vs having an anxiety attack. My niece and nephew have taken this to heart, and I can tell they have made a ton of effort to adopt this 'Superpower'.

Knowledge itself is a super power, if you use it. The more you learn and attempt to understand without prejudice or bias, the stronger your power to help people becomes.

I can lift 55lbs over my head while treading water

The ability to remember the lyrics to basically any pop song from 1990s-2010s

I can pet my cat

I'm a supertaster and hypervigilant, so all my senses are dialed up to 11. My memory is also unusually good. Also my son claims I have "Poon vision", but I'm not crazy about that idea.

I'm able to guess plot points in movies before they happen. This includes guessing how the kid keeps the family from eating the meal in Troll 2 and guessing the kind of sword Excalibur was in Sharknado 6.

For me, remembering numbers; like ID numbers, part numbers, phone numbers, etc. When I worked as a parts guy at a shop, I would frequently be able to bring up the exact part that fits the customer's machine assuming I had looked it up once or twice before. If it was something I hadn't looked at in a while I'd still usually double check fitment, but I probably had a 99% accuracy on part numbers.

Give a proper first aid for minor injuries. People tend to dissmiss minor burn/cut/bruises, but first aid right after it is what minimizes lingering pain,.

Analytical skills and working memory (RAM)

I can sense years if not decades before anyone else which celebrities are creeps, rapists, rscist or asshole.

Bill Cosby

R. Kelly

Marilyn Manson

Morgan Freeman

Chris Brown

Woody Allen (no wait that's too easy)

Allan Baldwin

Johnny Depp

Thre guy from Ramstein

The what's his name since guy

Elon Musk

And so on. I hated them all since forever and knew somthing is not quite right with them.

The only cases I was shocked was James Franco and Kevin spacey.

Pro: highly adaptable, Con: ADHD, Pro: free medication

If you consider having "thick skin" a superpower in the social media era, then that.

I am able to think straight.

(most of the times, at least)

I’m a good lier, I passed a lie detector test while lying.

When baking, I pick the right amount of butter, down to 2 gram accuracy.
