    My hearing is way better than my wife’s so I typically just know what sounds are. But they got me in sight, I can’t find jack shit. Which is funny because my eyesight is actually better, I’m just bad at spotting.

      My eyesight is shit (about -7.0 prescription lenses to correct) but my favorite game will always be these books I had as a kid called “I Spy” which functioned like a word search but only with pictures of little cutouts of various objects on a super messy but visually pleasing photograph of a themed environment on each double-page of the extra large but pretty thin (only about 20 puzzles per book or so), books.

      Top notch training for me as a kid to navigate organized chaos, and find things around the room which had not been put away in any sensible spot after its last use.

      Women seem far better at spotting, no idea why. It’s why they get frustrated with us guys, “Hey can you find thing?”, and we’re staring right at it. Can’t find any evidence to back that, just personal experience with many women.
