Something others don’t know about you, perhaps.

    I can genuinely point to Jupiter, any time, day or night. I may need to get my bearings for NSEW but assuming I have any point of reference I can just point at Jupiter. It is my favourite planet and since I was a kid I was a little obsessed and figured it out, now it just runs in the background like a little JPS (Jupiter Positioning System) all the time.

    i have a weird relationship with time. I can usually guess what time it is when I haven’t looked for a long time. I also wake up every morning at exactly 5am, no alarm needed. even on my days off.

    Learning probably. my parents and everyone always thought i studied hard on my room for school to have such good grades and now later at work. actually I just seem to learn pretty fast i guess. 99% of the time it only takes one explaining or showing me one time how it is done and i basicly never forget it.

    I can usually figure out North pretty quickly and I will retain that knowledge for the given area for a long time.

    Not too sure how special that is, but here we go.

    I used to be really good at balancing while leaning backwards on a chair, I could go for minutes at a time.

      Related talent, I can infinite wheelie a wheelchair, spin, move around quickly with ease, etc … both my legs work well at the moment so most people will never find that out about me!

    I used to be able to tell you what time it was without looking at a clock within around 5 minutes of accuracy. I can’t really do it as well any more.

    Walking into an argument between two (or more) other people and saying something that feels totally measured and rational that ends up pissing off both sides and making them all come together in being pissed at me instead.

    I market it as “I’m a uniter!”, but 85% of the time I have no idea how it happened and it’s completely on accident.

    I’m strangely good at wiggling my nostrils, way better than anyone else I’ve met. No luck wiggling my ears though.

    I can always tell when someone needs to poop.

    …not really, but that would have been one hell of a hidden talent.
