Benign Super Powers

September 19 2017


I was wondering what everyone's everyday superpower, the kind of stuff that you know you or someone you know is really good at, but is not something the Avengers would necessarily brag about. 

For example, I had a boss who could count and sort money faster than a teller machine at a bank. No joke, I have never seen money, especially US currency, sorted so fast. 

I also know someone who never has problems with their shoes coming unlaced. So, I guess they tie really great knots. 

I am really good at picking paint colors when I paint for pleasure, or picking out wall colors, or color matching for media projects. Like really good at it, why I don't do graphic design is beyond me.

I cant say i have any super benigns ... but I can tell you the TNG episode name if you were to describe an episode to me.

also Im quite good at letting someone know im displeased with them without being overly rude and direct (this power doesnt work on humans of American heritage though)

I have a really high level of attention to detail that I see as a benign super-power of sorts, but that other people probably see as more of an annoyance.  

Along the lines of Nivagni, my back-up power is my vanishing wine ability.

I have a couple of 'em. For one, I am super attractive to cats. They'll seek me out above all others in a room to jump on and rub up against. The fact that I'm super allergic to them and will immediately start sneezing does nothing to deter them. The little bastards just love me.

I also seem to age slower than most humans, and I get really funny when I'm in a lot of pain.

I too am a cat whisperer. I'm the only one I know who can actually "Herd Cats." Maybe that is my real super power?!

My PTSD makes me hyperaware. So, for instance, I'll notice and react when a pedestrian is almost but not quite hit by a car, and no one else will even be aware of what almost but didn't happen.
