    I've always been good at remembering numbers, phone numbers, account numbers, etc. In fact, I worry it looks suspicious to non-nerds, so when I'm asked for a number I pretend to look something up on my phone or rustle some papers around first 😂

        My similar super power is forgetting people's names but remembering their ldaps/mail IDs. But I can't rustle papers around when I meet someone and end up blurting out "Hey twb25, what's up!" :|

        I can remember people's whole life story, address, where I met them, and hold coherent conversations whilst my brain screams & takes 24 hours to remember their name. This can be a sign of dementia but I've always been this way, my Dad too.

        Same. If I've called or used a number 3 or more times, it's largely committed to memory forever. Names OTOH... 😅

        I can still remember my parents’ credit card number from the 90s after using it a few times (with their permission!) to mail order mountain bike components. Pretty sure it’ll still be with me on my death bed.

        Yeah don’t worry, my son memorized the details of 3 credit cards that he then bought in-game shit for for $4000 when he was six. Unfortunately all of them were ours.

        A coworker/close friend from a previous IT job still calls me ocationally asking if I remember the IP address of some obscure system, because calling me is faster than looking it up. (And we get to chat for a while)

        Same here. Once a western custom officer searched my phone and asked why I got an empty Contacts/did you bring a burner/how you want to hack our country...while he didn’t believe the answer that I can remember all those numbers
