Sounds like the CA government.

But CA does it deliberately, so the bonds will be approved by the Lib electorate.

Politics in an apolitical thread. Come on.

My (former) coworkers say I have an extraordinary memory of work-related information. I still field questions about my projects even after having been gone for 14 years. Some years back I wrote a couple of documents about technical details of the SAGE system I recalled after a 20 year absence, and was surprised at how much I remembered. (Now, where I put my glasses is another matter . . . .)

Pissing my wife off. tone...Tone...TONE!

(Actually, we are our own best friends)

At random times estimation is a super power of mine.

During an inventory at work I saw a bin of tiny parts on a scale. Before looking at the meter I blurted out a four digit random number I figured would be ballpark to a nearby co-worker.
He said "that's it alright" I laughed, then looked...exactly correct.

Made me more convinced we might all be a simulation after all.

Unsurpassed ability with investments, collectibles, mutual funds, real estate, etc., to buy high and sell low.

I am the Chipmunk Whisperer.

Horror and distain of others over my raw onion obsession never bothers me.

I can come up with answers to questions I know nothing about. It's innate.

Kitty kavorka, they've always liked me.

I live a very fortunate life. I do, This next part is not complaining.

If some shit can go wrong, It will do so to me. I have the worst luck. The worlds most unlikely things happen to me. We call it (family name ) Curse.

Shit rolls downhill, picks up the septic tank, and hits me.

in the end it works its self out. I have learned to roll with it after 45 years.

I have friends who have said, dude, you are a shti magnet. I don't usually seek it out, yet it homes in on as iff Garand thumb was calling the shit in.

I had the ability to get lost going almost anywhere. In fact, it seemed to me that I could get lost crossing the street. This superpower was taken away from me with the invention of GPS. I do believe that GPS was the greatest invention in human history since the invention of the wheel.

I can, without fail, say the absolute wrong thing at the wrong time every and then ignore any attempt to call me on it

Not really a super power, but an oddity. I know a little about a lot...but I don't know everything.

I do impulsive stupid shit really really well

Farting. I can clear a room in 10 seconds.

Sarcasm. Thick enough to make people rethink their intelligence.

I have the ability to do extremely stupid shit and live through it (so far)

Sorry about that.

I’ll try to be more observant of forum protocols.
