    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.

    I get to be the favorite of pretty much all the family pets. Always been.

    Some family and friends joke that I probably could go to an African safari and the lions wouldn’t harm me. Not really rushing to find out if it’s true tho.

    Remember those “exercise while you sleep” infomercials? I have parasomnia, so sometimes I wake up sore from moving around all night. Turns out, it really is like exercise while you sleep.

    I’m really, really good at peeling oranges with my bare hands (or at least I used to be in grade school when all my friends would make me do it for them). The problem is, I hate the taste of oranges so I never use this power.

    Reminds me of the show “Extraordinary”. Watch it, if you got the chance. It’s really funny and also deals about pointless superpowers.

    I can ‘flex’ my Eustachian tubes and ‘open them’ at will, e.g. equalising pressure when ears need ‘popping’ on planes. I’m sure it isn’t that uncommon but no one ever knows what I mean when I say it.

    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’m really bad with names and faces, but I can distinguish twins. I mean not the twins like “and my twin has a penis” but monozygotic twins.

    I don’t claim it to be any kind of a super power, but with my inability to recognize people even after they’ve been at the hairdresser it’s really astonishing.

    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 😅
