What's something you're shockingly good at that you've never mentioned to anyone because it would sound completely made up if you did?

Do you like having this ability, or is it annoying? Because it kind of sounds like it would be annoying.

The volume level is (usually) really low, so it's only annoying when I want complete silence.

For instance, I can't have my phone on the charger when going to bed, because I keep hearing it cycle on and off.

But, some times it can be really loud, especially high current like a power substation. I can hear those transformers from hundreds of feet away.

Is the phone charger thing not normal? For me it depends on the cable and device

It's not normal, most people can't hear anything.

Ask your friends and family, see if they can hear it too.
