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

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 pet my cat
I can lift 55lbs over my head while treading water
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,.
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.
Iโm like that with elapsed time, also to within about 5 mins.
Ask me what I did yesterday? No fucking clue.
Analytical skills and working memory (RAM)
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.
I can sense years if not decades before anyone else which celebrities are creeps, rapists, rscist or asshole.

R. Kelly
Marilyn Manson

Thre guy from Ramstein

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

Seems you hate many people... may be it is just confirmation bias.
damit! well thanks a lot for ruining my superpower ๐
Morgan Freeman? Am I missing something?
It's somewhat well know that he is very abrasive in public with fans that solicit him. I believe that is what is being referred to in this context. I am unaware of any additional "ass-hole-afications" he possesses though.
The ability to remember the lyrics to basically any pop song from 1990s-2010s
I think there's a gameshow for you to make some money off of this power
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.
When baking, I pick the right amount of butter, down to 2 gram accuracy.
Pro: highly adaptable, Con: ADHD, Pro: free medication
Also highly adaptable. Iโm never concerned with things changing. I just change with it. Also people. I adapt to whomever in with almost immediately and without even thinking about it. Downside of that is sometimes Iโm not sure who I actually am. Am I being myself or just the people Iโm around.
Thought I was alone.
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.
I am able to think straight.
(most of the times, at least)
