Here's another: the human ear is phenomenal at determining where in 3d space a sound is coming from. Most animals can only determine direction and can't really place a sound vertically. Watch what your cat or dog does when they're looking for the source of a noise, it takes them a lot longer.

Your tongue is also super tactile. We spend most of our toddler years discovering this.
You can look at anything around you, anything, and your brain knows exactly what it would be like to lick it, even if you've never done it before. Taste, texture, residue etc.. it's quite freaky
Oh and my thighs are really good at imagining my phone just buzzed.
You can look at anything around you, anyrhing, and your brain knows exactly what it would be like to lick it
Siri, how do I unthink a thought?
Alcohol, ridiculously large amounts of
Weed is better for forgetting. Alcohol is better for not caring.
I'm going to lick everything tonight.
Yeah, if you tilt your head back and pretend you're shaking a salt shaker into your mouth, you will actually taste salt.
I don't taste anything. Does it matter how hard I shake it?
You have to close your eyes, open your mouth wide and put your tongue out for the desired effect. Maybe it helps if you have some bystanders who cheer you on.
When I was an adolescent, I dreamt that I performed oral sex on a woman by putting my entire head inside of her vagina. Turns out that cunnilingus is nothing like my premonition, but I certainly had the texture figured out.

my thighs
Thanks... My body doesn’t really need sleep anyway.
Also locating needed nightstand items in the dark of night
As a single dude, I can tell You, that's not the only thing a human hand is good at.
Dick, take a look out of starboard, it looks like a huge...
… erection … of pillars in the vast wetlands …
What's in my pocket?
I'm more curious about what's in the box.
Want to truly understand how good it is? Try getting a specific thing out of a pocket with a thick glove!
There are over 1 trillion nerve ending in your hand
Just kidding I made that up
Wait y'all can pick the correct thing out of your pocket regularly? I'd say I have a 10-20% error rate. At least once a week I'm standing in front of the staff room door wondering why my car key is in my hand.
The brain is good at taking the information given it and creating a virtual image, including filling in missing parts. Both for touch and for the mention of hearing to calculate location. It can also be fooled because of this wiring, as it tries to find patterns where they may not exist.
Your brain also has a model of the reality it’s interacting with. If the tactile sensation matches something in the library, that’s the image that gets pulled up.
This system is far from perfect but usually it works pretty well. When it fails, you get false positives, illusions etc.
You can also scratch pretty much any part of your butt crack just by feel.
With your hand.
I disagree, if my pocket is busy I need to take things out to tell the difference between them. Also, my hands can't tell the difference between my cards.
Too bad that my brain apparently still can't figure out the difference between they keys for my front door, shed and bike lock. Still requires 3 tries just like with USB sticks.
Idk... Sometimes I end up with nothing but keys in my hand and think I forgot my lighter just because the FOB for my car is the same shape and size as a BIC.
