Are you a Super Recogniser?

Do you have the ability to never forget faces? 


"It is the extreme opposite of prosopagnosia. It is estimated that 1 to 2% of the population are super recognisers3 who can remember 80% of faces they have seen compared to 20% in the general population,4 but these figures are disputed.5 Super recognisers can match faces better than computer recognition systems in some circumstances.3[6]7 The science behind this is poorly understood but may be related to the fusiform face area part of the brain.3"

Nope. I've been told I have a near photographic memory, but I can't put a name and a face together to save my life. I'll remember someone's birthday, hobbies, and anything else about them that's interesting, but I don't recognize them when I see them

Speaking of recognizing faces, anyone know who this is? For some reason he's showing up on the dropdown menu for WSO when I make the window small enough. Super weird!

I get random faces on my page as well. Has been everyone including thebrofessor.

Yes, the ironic part is I am TERRIBLE with names.  I forget 99% of names.  I need one of those people like the president has that follow them around and remind them of people's names.

Haha yeah - I usually take notes of people’s names on my phone right after I meet them.
