So what about your family? Got a human calculator in your house? Can your other half make plants grow like a druid? Are they a self-taught Wolfgang Puck?
Tell us about the quirky or incredibly useful thing your SO is amazing at doing!

Mr. Longhorn (Mr. Wino may be more appropriate) is a genius with numbers. He's an engineer and can do all sorts of computations in his head. And he's the best Excel user I think I've ever seen in my life. He created a self-scoring spreadsheet for his family's college football bowl picks (because they refuse to move over to a Yahoo or ESPN thing). It's amazing.
My DH is so handy it's ridiculous. If something in our house breaks, from plumbing to electrics to cabinetry, he always magically knows how to fix it. He's a handyman-wizard.
His memory is really amazing, and the amount he knows about sports is crazy. He is like a walking Wikipedia. Other people are always impressed at the trivia he knows or the things he can remember.
He's also the best at sarcasm- I've never met anyone else who can so appropriately and hilariously get comments in that my others (and myself!) laugh.
I like this question-a good way to start the weekend, it made me think for a few minutes about all of the reasons I love my husband I love and appreciate him.

MH can organize anything, and I mean anything, so that everything fits perfectly. Packing suitcases are like Tetris to him. He organizes our entire house and it's wonderful.
He can do amazing things with computer programming and design. 99.9% of the stuff he knows he taught himself. He never gives himself enough credit though.
My husband can find good uses for almost anything in terms of organization and can organize the house really well. So well that I quite often lose things.
Compared to other super powers I guess it's not that exciting.

DH is a car guru. He fixes cars, builds race cars, builds car engines...things my brain could never comprehend. It seems like he can just look at a car and instantly know what's wrong with it. It amazes me.

H can fix ANYTHING engine/electrical related. Anything. He's so handy.
And he has a special place in his brain for movie quotes. He knows Sooo many; he can pretty much quote lines from any movie he's ever seen which is a ton.

H can ALWAYS make me laugh. One time after an exceptionally shitty day he went in the garage and came back in the house in work boots, underwear, a reflective vest, and a hard hat and started dancing. It was amazing.

Aw, you guise, I love hearing about these cool things your dudes can do!
I'm glad to know how many of them are good at making us laugh, too, since sometimes it can feel like a sense of humor is the only thing keeping me sane after a shitty day at work or a bad TTC day.

Señor Burritos is good at creating the interwebs. He's also a little too good at Marvel Comic trivia. It's becoming an issue.
Yep. This. We watch any Marvel movie, and he gives me backstory on every character, what the story looked like in the comics, and a plethora of other information I didn't really need to know.
Although I did start listening to an X-Men podcast recently. I think telling H that turned him on more than anything else I've ever done.
