This one.

Also am really good at determining and documenting the most efficient ways of doing many things. This is good at work where I can generate optimized workflows, and at home where it allows me to be lazy and still be productive.

Wow! Where did you find a picture of me??!!

Mine is that computers seem to fear me. People will relate all kinds of problems they are having with their computer, but as soon as I show up or look into the problem, they suddenly disappear. It's like the computer can sense my presence and start behaving.

I don't know if it is because my sensory organs and their connections to my brain work faster than those of others or if it is because my brain functions faster than other people's - maybe it's both. Maybe's it's something else. All I know is that I consistently "get" things faster than most people.

I don't get it.

When I used to go to popular music concerts, I would know what a song was going to be practically from the first note of the intro. I would marvel at how long it took most of the crowd to start clapping in recognition. Sometimes I could tell what song it was going to be from how the musicians were retuning their instruments. I felt like this stuff was very obvious but as time passed I realized it wasn't for most people. I have a great musical ear but alas no musical training whatsoever, which leads to some frustrating conversations as I attempt to explain why one melody reminds me of another melody: well, you know, they both go "da da da da" in the same sort of way :eye:

I have that one, too, for both recorded and live music. This particular talent used to impress the hell out of girls when I was in college. For a long time when I was a kid, Name That Tune was my favorite game show.
