Would you prefer supervision, supersmell, superfeel, superhearing, or supertaste? And what about the other senses of the body that are not part of the quintet? Think balance, temperature, and even the ability to feel where all your body parts are (you can close your eyes, wave your hands around, and touch your knee)
For me, I would pick supervision. It would be really cool to see better in the dark, have built-in camera zoom, and see in higher detail.
I just want the ability to close my ears the same as I close my eyes, thanks.
NONE! I ALREADY HAVE TOO MANY! I got high detail vision, taste and smell and a bit super hearing. My partner has among other things such a good hearing they hear electricity in the walls. Life for them is a nightmare!
Being autistic isnt fun :(
Super vision.
I wanna be like Jeffery Combs seeing the world through his exposed pineal gland.
Greetings from the neurodivergent spectrum!
Quick question, can I also have the opposite of these?
sure, why not? This is a theoretical after all
I would argue that instead of wishing for impairment to cope with the overstimulation, you just wish for the part of your brain that handles sensory input to be able to handle your normal sensory load without issue.
Super enhanced proprioception.
General execution and even general learning of anything that requires physical movement (from sports, driving, writing/typing, doing surgery, videogames…) would be massively improved.
There are aids to enhance things like vision and hearing, but there are 0 aids currently for proprioception.
Super smelling. Not for any real advantage. My regular sense of smell just sucks.
I have what you may call supersmell, and it drives me insane sometimes as usually people around me couldn’t smell them until they take a closer sniff, while I’d just smell it first thing. And no, sadly, I wasn’t talking about nice smell.
Vision. As I’ve gotten older I have noticed that my eyes aren’t what they used to be, and I find it annoying. I’d love to compensate for that.
I really need supervision.
No, really, I am a danger to myself and others. Please keep an eye on me
supervision so i can finish my licensure without having to pay $50 a week to talk to the supervisor
As a guy who wears glasses, heightened vision would be awesome.
Super hearing would be great, too. I’d love to be able to hear all the nuances of music and be able to hear it without turning it up.
Depends if I can turn it on and off at will, or if it’s on all the time. Even super vision would likely result in a sensory overload, even seeing the inside of your eyelids when you close your eyes!
the ability to feel where all your body parts are (you can close your eyes, wave your hands around, and touch your knee)
Super proprioception, the ability to know how good is your hairdo without looking.
Nah, I want the vision one.
None. I’d be happy with seeing and hearing properly.
I have stronger than average taste and smell. Do not recommend. Various things taste pretty awful, I’m more sensitive to smells and even things I like can become overwhelming.
I used to be able to see better in the dark than anyone I know, but that has faded with age. I’ve also always been somewhat colorblind so fixing that might be nice. I would also fix my hearing being kinda wonky (as in basically useless whenever multiple things are producing sound at once).
I’m tempted to want some kind of better balance or electromagnetic perception (though that one could be awful for the same reason I wouldn’t want to see much beyond what I do on the visible light spectrum since UV radiation and infrared could be a wall of noise).
Super hearing, to the point of echolocation (Which apparently some blind people can actually do in a very basic form as a learned skill!?)
Maybe you could save Foggy Nelson
