I can fit anything up to 5mm through the hole in my tragus (the little flap that covers the ear hole)
I can too. I suck at throwing light objects because I use to much force with throwing them.Jolly Madness said:
Either you consciously/subconsciously remember the algorithm to do such or you're just a freak...no offense meant by that.PS3fanboy said:
As for the things I can do? my thumb is double jointed and i can pop my jaw out of place...
I can totally, and I mean totally shut down all my emotions, facial expressions, and all sensory systems (hearing, sight, smell) at a whim. Not even the funniest joke will make me laugh if I don't want to.
It's really good for marching band. We have competions to see who can stand still the longest. Nobody can make me move.

I let other people mess it up while I look the other way.Isaac Dodgson said:
I can still solve it.
I've never tried to do the complete reverse of my moves, it's way to confusing.
I do it in a layer-by-layer fashion and know some very complex algorithms.
I won't go into detail as I might bore some people.
Edit: yes, I know I'm a freak, but I'm mainly a nerd.
Well...
I can type much faster than most people...using only 2 fingers.
After hearing a song a few times, I can play the whole thing back in my head, eliminating the need for an iPod.
I can easily hear sounds above 19,000 Hz; if a CRT is running nearby I can usually hear the scanning sound it makes. Which is a really annoying sound, by the way.
Sometimes, when gaming or programming, I lose track of what I'm doing, and in the process do it 1000 times better. As in, becoming totally unable to miss a shot with a tiny projectile even if the enemy that gets hit wasn't even visible when I fired, or spamming out hundreds of lines of code in no time that inexplicably do exactly what I had originally planned. I just wish I could learn to do that all the time.
Also:
It's even more surreal when I correctly predict mistakes, like the time my little brother was standing near me trying to skip rocks in a lake; I suddenly decided he was going to hit me (standing a good 90 degrees from the direction he was aiming) with the next rock, and a couple of seconds later, he did. Good thing, too, because if I had been surprised I probably would have ducked and caused it to hit me in the head. (It hit my neck instead and somehow left no mark.)
It freaks me out far more than it does other people...mostly because I rarely point it out when it happens.

Also:
Mine is a lot more random; it's not in my control most of the time, but sometimes I just have some random and perfectly accurate subconscious insight into a situation. It's also kind of creepy, though, as it can happen with people I've never met before. Like, a couple days ago, while playing TF2, I randomly said a dumb phrase I can't remember in a silly accent, and...well, another player immediately said the exact same thing, in the exact same silly accent. I have no microphone, so he couldn't have heard me, and it wasn't something I often say, or often hear other people say; in fact, I'm pretty sure I made it up on the spot. Or somehow decided to say it because I knew that guy would.WitherVoice said:

Glad to hear that I am not the only one on here that wears their emotions on their sleeves. Yay emotions!JaKhajiit said:
Unique? Unique ?
I understand people better then they understand themselves. I know exactly how people are feeling and why and what can be done to fix the problem if they?re upset. I predict the outcomes of social decisions with frightening accuracy (A while back a friend of mine asked me if he should date this girl we knew. I told him it was a horrible idea, gave him a list of 8 things that would happen if he pursued the idea and predicted the day they would break up. He dated her anyway. Everything on the list happened and I was within a week of the correct date). And the people who know me pretty much take my advice about anything regarding people as golden.
It?s not really empathy because I don?t so much identify with the people I?m examining as much as I tend to think they?re being purposefully emotionally dishonest and generally ignorant (that sounds harsher than I intended it. Humans really aren?t very complicated, the real problem in my experience is that everyone thinks their problems are unique and special, no one actually wants to confront, or even recognize, why they feel certain ways and everyone wants to pretend they?re basically logical creatures despite all observable evidence).
? Reading the last two paragraphs I?ve decided to change the topic before I come off too much like an arrogant git.
I?m really good at astrology. I can guess a person?s astrological sign pretty reliably after interacting with them for 5 or 10 minutes. I cook. I?m an excellent orator and writer. I?m very good with philosophy and abstract thought. I?m an above average cryptanalyzer (solver of cryptograms). I use large words comfortably in spoken English. I have no social inhibitions and honestly don?t care what people think of me. I have freakish memory (boarders on photographic). I'm probably the most passive laidback person I know.
To once again risk tooting my own horn, I've lived in 17 houses across 9 states and I've never met another person like me. And no one who knows me knows anyone like me. I'm pretty much the odd man out in the universe. It's kind of fun.

I can manipulate my way out of any given situation. I'm a bloody good liar and can make up stories on the spot. If someone asks why I did something I can make up a completely plausible reason for it and talk about it for 15 minutes. I also got some creepy aura that makes myself believeable, and if they don't know if the fact is wrong or right they instantly believe me.
I can:
stick my tongue out and touch my ear
lick my own elbow
beat that!
EDIT: Oh and I almost forgot, I can take a bullet to the chest multiple times.

I can write in the mysterious and long lost language of "my handwriting". I'm the only person who can read it too.
I have a unique talent at failing at cooking. I am the only person I am aware of that can fail at making cereal!
