What special ability do you posess that most people don’t 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).
I thought I had this superpower, but it turns out I never chopped enough onions. I got a job in a restaurant and I couldn’t even keep my eyes open near the onions.
I can pet my cat
I have an uncanny ability to figure out the optimal size container to use to store leftovers. Kneel before my power!
But can you find the correct lid to that Tupperware?
I am your nemesis, I inevitably dirty several containers trying to find the right size.
We can fight when I am done doing the dishes.
Lol, my wife just ends up using an obscenely large container for the tiniest bit of left overs.
He is the chosen one!
Being able to lose anything I put my hands on. Not a good power, but it’s all I got.
Come over here and put those magic hands on my belly fat, you wizard!
With great power comes great responsibility
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
I have cat-like night vision, and can see just fine in lighting that most people would call “pitch black”.
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.
Maybe self-learning. I always learn new stuff using the Internet by myself without asking anyone.
Why is it that every comment has an eerily relevant username?
I wonder if it has anything to do with the person writing the comment being able to choose their username 🤔

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.
LMAO
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.
Okay, story time? Have you ever read lips to a conversation and learned some juicy gossip?!
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.
You are the 3rd person in this post to give this answer - I was going to add this myself, but clearly this is just a regular power.
I don’t feel special anymore!
I can figure out how most software and mechanical systems work by poking around them.
Lemmy guess, reverse engineering is your career?
No that sounds more fun than what I do. I help big orgs adapt XR (like vr headsets) to their workflows.
Analytical skills and working memory (RAM)
I am able to think straight.
(most of the times, at least)
