Ask Lemmy

A lot of my memory is based on Music. So if I hear a song I get all of my memories of both the things that have happened in my life while that song was playing, and where I first heard the song (if I heard the song in a movie or show I can say/picture what was happening in that when the song was playing as well). To the point where many have said it's a photographic memory based in song. Importantly, if there wasn't music playing then I only remember the rough details instead of pinpoint details when there is music.

Now if only it worked for studying, then I would have been able to listen to music while studying and remember all the shit I was supposed to instead of being terrible at tests.

I can sometimes see auras around people. It's fascinating stuff, but the strain of it can cause debilitating pain.

Western medicine calls it "migraines", but what does science know?

I can do the Skype notification sound with my mouth, but it's not a natural ability, a beatboxer classmate taught me during highschool. He could also mimic a cricket and that derailed more than one lesson, but he never taught me that one.

I have two superpowers:

Mosquitoes don't find me delicious. When everyone else is getting hammered, they generally leave me alone. When I do get bit, the bites barely swell and they don't usually itch.

Rock star parking- Anywhere I go, I always check out immediately in front of the place I need to be. There's almost always an empty spot, and if there isn't there's someone just leaving that I pull into. I dunno how that helps me fight crime, but it sure would be useful if I were a bank heist getaway driver.

I can tell when someone is about to run a red light.

Predicting psychopathic behavior hasn't been based on my 401k.

I can tell if an electric device is properly grounded or not just by touch. I don't mean getting shocked, when I run my fingers on a surface it feels differently from when it is properly grounded.

I eat rice in rows like a dot matrix printer

Idk what my super power is but my weakness is salt. Too much and I first lose my hearing followed by dizziness and vertigo.

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.

I subconsciously hear GIFs and silent videos. On repeating GIFs, the same sound plays over and over. Some GIFs sound satisfying and hypnotic and keep me entranced for a long time, while others are loud and obnoxious and make me scroll away from them immediately.

I can hold electric (cow) fences without getting shocked. Perfect for fence hopping through paddocks.
