Ask Lemmy

I have an impeccable nose for work BS.

When a new initiative or proposal or project or just a simple inquiry comes my way, I seem to have a really good instinct as to how feasible/likely this project will come to fruition. BS projects get tossed into a corner, Non-BS projects get attention.

99.9% of the time, the BS projects are cancelled or get completely rectified into non-BS projects before I had to waste a single calorie on them

90% of the time, the non-BS projects are actually developed or, if cancelled, it's due to forces outside of our control

The consequence of this "power" is that I am rarely busy since I don't waste time on the BS and I get solid work done as I can move the time to the non-BS stuff... 23 years into my career I have never been late for a delivery or caught with no progress on a request

I can speak Finnish.

wait i'm a supertaster and i fucking hate ants, if that's the scent i can do it too. well i could if i didn't shitbomb the bathroom so often. but you may have legitimately helped me in my lifelong war against the ants (i'm farsighted i cannot see them until i sit down and they crawl up and bite my jibblies thank you)

I aquired this superpower trough habits, but i can intuitively find the north.

Apart from that, well, I'm just myself

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

i dont feel anything when i have caffeine. so i can drink Unfathomable amounts of tea :D

I could sometimes think what someone else is about to say right before they say it but I'm either delusional or really lucky

(っ◔◡◔)っ ♥ Depression ♥

I can turn ducks around... but only when they are in the water

I can rumble my ears. It's not at all useful and often highly annoying.

I can level paintings by hand, and usually on the first try. I still always double check with a level

I think those are the same ants in the southwest us that can find a box of cereal in a vault. Not sure if I could smell just one ant, but they are insanely smelly until you’re too hungover to pay attention and get a mouthful

I can raise my middle toe like I'm flicking you off

I can make the sound of one hand clapping.

It was a thing that went around my middle school. You keep your hand at about a 90 degree angle to your arm, and then flap back and forth with your fingers loose so it hits your palm. Takes a little practice.
