I Never Forget a Face

Jennifer Jarrett never forgets a face. No, really. The super recognizer can see someone and immediately recognize them, regardless of how much time has passed.

the first thing coming to my mind is she should utilize it to help that missing child department.. cos she said even after the face change she could remember them

[zdravkok]

ok. finally someone I can relate to. I always warn people that I will remember their face, but never their name.

[ArcticThread]

at least she can win at a game of matching cards

[hermetickitten]

She could get a nice job for the police or something?

I was at a swim meet during sophomore year and I saw this guy I remembered and was like "Hey, you were in my kindergarten class!" and I have never seen someone so confused in my life...

Once I learn a person's name, face or even the smallest information they have shared about themselves, I never forget. It's a blessing in some ways, but it's also a curse. The people I want to forget, I can't. The worst thing about remembering other people's faces is that nobody -- and I mean NOBODY -- remembers mine. It's a worthless feeling. Just once I'd like someone to say, "Hey, you look familiar!" Nope.

I have face blindness and this is depressing for me.

Imagine robbing a place and then she sees your face

I recognised on the street one of my kindergarten friends, we hadn't seen each other for more than 10 years, and when I asked her if she was "blah blah" and used to live in such and such she was sooo creeped out. It's not always a good thing to have this kind of memory lmao

0:52 and.. i thought that was Miranda sing without makeup

[betatester]

She is so good with remembering faces they didn't even show her face for us to remember her.

This lady is human *iPhone X* who can adapt to an evolving faces!

[schtinky]

You could get a job at an airport looking for people on watchlists for the government, since you can recognize faces so well.

[cocojumbo]

But can she remember Game of Thrones characters?

[radishman]

Better hope she doesn't find a deathnote... and trade for shinigami eyes.

I thought the title said “I never got a face”

*I’m so stupid XD*

[AbhorrentAlbum]

She is prolly the best worker at her local starbucks

Finally I can prove to my friends that I am not the only one. Like, literally I sometimes just remember people so clearly by their face. I remember that once I met a person in a train and I was like 'Hey I know you from somewhere.' After talking to her for sometime my mother noticed her and said 'Hey you're that woman who gave milk powder to us for Urishita (my name) when she was 9 months old.' I was just looking at my mom like she was crazy and my mom showed us a photograph from that day. It was the same lady.

Me: puts my phone down
Me 5 seconds later: where is my phone???

Took the test and got 13/14. People think I'm weird when I say "oh hey! I remember you from ____!" Or I recognize someone I saw pass by me at a store and happen to see them in another place later on. I still think it's really weird.

Can't remember names or items too well though...
