What's your really pointless superpower?

[Qbish]

I can tell who has a lisp just from a photograph.

I have never found the perfect moment to deploy this superpower. I need to be in a seventies Jessica Fletcher-type show, obvs.

I don't think it's pointless, but I am basically good at most of things, but not as good as to say I am good at it. That makes me think it's kind of pointless in a sense.

Me too! I can fall asleep in under five mins, anytime, anyplace, anywhere and be totally refreshed in ten mins.

I'm a master untangler too. Wires, fishing lines, Christmas fairy lights etc. I'm your gal!

I can (pretty accurately) tell the name and model of a car coming towards me in the dark, by the shape of the headlights

I can touch the end of my nose with my tongue. My mum could do the same and so can my son. No one else in the family can do this. What a (rubbish) superpower! 🤣

Great hearing , friends normally take me when they go and see new cars . I’ve previously told the mechanic exactly what’s wrong to be told they couldn’t hear anything and then finding out it was exarou what I told them . Even my partner admits to it and always wants me to try any potential cars for him . I’m also very good at being super fast to detect potential lawful or legal issues within a situation ( but that comes from my profession probably ) .
Im not a school gate PTA kind of mum so I consider myself very good identifying my “tribe “ , there is normally only a few of us in school situations lol

I remember the birthdays of pretty much everyone I know (if they'd told me).

V strong sense of smell. Especially, cigarettes and alcohol (I dislike both).
I can smell when dc have got an illness bug.

Are you a speech therapist? Or a dentist? Or just innate knowledge.

I'm very good at spotting faces - eg cameos of famous ppl in films / TV series, and famous ppl in RL.

I can fit my whole body through a wire coat hanger

I make the world's best guacamole so if we have an alien invasion I'm just going to declare Mexican night and win them over.

I can cure your hiccups. Yes, even yours.

I can fall asleep within seconds if I decide to. It freaks my husband right out.

I know what accent people are speaking in by lipreading, even if I can't hear anything. Though I bet loads can do that.

I also know what my body temperature is exactly accurately at any given time (developed this skill when I was ill for a year and has to take my temperature about 20 times a day)

I can find the end of the sellotape within seconds.

I was saying to a colleague the other day- I would LOVE to be a super recogniser! Do you make use of it? That is a real superpower.

both of mine bent backwards!

I need this power

It really made me laugh, so I've tried it, and I can too. So I don't think it's a super power, I assume many can, if you are slim build.

I can remember really long numbers.

I'm the fastest reader I've ever met too

My husband once tried to test me on a book I read cover to cover in an hour. He lost.

I honestly feel like my reading speed is normal, it seems weird to me how long people take to read things.

Photographic memory. It’s not pointless I know but I pretend otherwise frequently as it annoys people.

I have an amazing sense of direction and never, ever get lost. I have been known to find my way out of a maze of mirrors without a mistake.

I can tell when things are parallel/level/central by eye within a mm or two. Useful for putting pictures up annoying living in almost any house as nothing is quite straight.

I can identify the repeat location in tiles/wall paper etc, most wallpaper drive me potty.

I'm staggeringly good at finding certain small things, things that have been dropped, i have found dozens of 4/5 leaf clovers some of which have just caught my eye as I passed rather then actively searching.

I work in design so its not entirely useless. A gift and a curse...

I can name every mens Wimbledon final winner, and the year(s) they won, since the year I was born, 1975.

This has never been useful.

I can whistle and hum at the same time - has to be the same tune though

I am really good at doing neat hair very quickly- mine or someone elses. I can do a tidy bun that stays in place all day in seconds.
I have never come across an emergency situation where this would be particularly useful- but I did manage a plait on my friend while we were sharing a bicycle.

Reading upside down

When baking putting the exact amount in the weighing scales that I needed

Losing important documents

I can get my whole fist, including knuckles, in my mouth
