Does irritating the hell out of NT's count as super power?

I am Aggravaton! Beware foolish NT's! I have come to piss you off! You and your social ways must be eradicated!

i can recognise the most subtle sound differences...i can tell when a machine will break by the sounds it makes, i can tell the value of a coin that drops to the floor even though i dont see it, and i can tell every instrument in a song by listening to it. Id say im an auditory thinker, but thats not a classified thinking type

I'm pretty good at judging directions (like a compass; I tend to try and notice my surroundings). I don't have a superpower, but I am good with that. Also, in the past, I've turned some of my mothers' half- formed ideas into reality. Is THAT a superpower? :shrug: :lol:

jadeeyes, you probably ARE an auditory thinker! There are probably as many different ways of thinking as there are aspies/autistics. :scratch:

Not really. I'm good with computers, but that's just a geek thing, so...meh

My IQ is pretty high, I guess, but I've never come across any important ability.

Maybe my quick learning when it comes to something interesting? I have a pretty expansive knowledge of firearms (in particular, rifles and semi-auto pistols designed after 1894).
