Sneakiness. I'm a naturally silent person, both with my voice and with my body. I can walk right up to you and you wouldn't even know I was there. In fact, I'm probably next to one of you right now.
The smell of cookies always gives you away.
Mine is obliviousness. The building could fall down around me and five minutes later I'll think, "did I hear a noise?"
That reminds me of when our local oil depot blew up, destroyed half the town and I slept through it.

I wish I had a tiny bit of that superpower. When I'm out on the street, I'm oversensitive to any kind of sound and partly visions as well: the sound of car engines, people walking by, dogs barking, birds screeching - taking a walk, while it should be relaxing, is a chore at the same time for me as my senses get over-stimulated. It's not easy, being autistic.
I can recite all 50 states in alphabetical order in under 25 seconds. 30 years ago we sang 50 Nifty United States in the school show and it stuck with me.
Last time I was at a party I gave a hug to a random stranger for reasons I don't remember and he was so inspired he insisted that all of his friends come and hug me.
Memory for useless facts. I still remember my "List of Noun Determiners" that I had to memorize for a test in 6th grade (Now known as Adverbs). On the other hand, I often forget important things. :P
My secondary stupid superpower is minor double-jointedness. My knees can go backwards as well as forwards when I bend. I can cross the last two fingers of my right hand before the first two (I need to brace them on the first two fingers of my left hand to cross my last two fingers there). I can do the Vulcan salute easily on both hands.
But my real superpower is invisibility. People often forget I exist. ::Disappears.::
Honestly, my super power is invisibility. IRL, I am a master at being invisible so much so that I often times have a hard time turning it off. I can be in a room full of people and not one of them will SEE me there. I can walk across campus at work and no one will talk with me or even notice that I am there. I can ask a woman out and it takes her a moment to actually recognize that she knows me let alone wants to spend any time with me. It kind of sucks.
I can make fartnoises with my mouth. Pretty handy for when I can't think of a witty comeback or just want to show my general disdain. And sometimes I just make the noises at random or to use them as a conversation starter. It's like magic.

Sleep 4h/day and be highly productive (even before the baby or the military). My mom says that since I was a baby my sleep is similar to a near death experience, as apparently nothing is capable of waking me up. I get into REM state really fast.
Calm down any dog. It's not a Dog Whisperer thing because I can't make them do what I want, but even the more aggressive dog accepts me petting them.
Apparently, regenerative powers. Got shot in the back and went from the wheelchair to standing up fast enough to make my doctor consider writing an article.
My super power, developed recently, is understanding everything people say, without understanding hardly any words. Living in a foreign country, I've learnt to pick up a few words, look at their expression, mannerisms, hand gestures and work out with about 90% accuracy what they're talking about.
...unforutantely, they are usually talking about me, and often say "Não se preocupe, ele não entende" which means "dnt worry, he doesn't understand"

Also I can do all kinds of math in my brain, sometimes faster than a person might use a calculator.
That's a power, right?
Edit: I forgot to mention that I am a Priest of Righteous Humility. Sorry.
I'm the one in the wizards hat...

Sorry for the overtly British video. It is just missing the Queen and a red post box...

Nothing else really.

Water Crisis solved.
