I swear I'm not stoned

You all know me. You know I have a socially debilitating phobia regarding booze and drugs, and that I'd never do them, right?
Yet here I am at 11pm on a Thursday night with a SEVERE case of The Munchies and a profoundly stoner-like thought in my head.
In Science-Fiction, it seems like every ALien Race has some strange super-power that they just take for granted, right? To us it's weird, but to them stuff like Levitation and Thought Transference are just common things that everybody should know how to do. "Well OF COURSE we start fires with our lazer-eyes, how else would you do it?" Stuff like that.
You know what I think the Human Race has as it's super power? IMAGINATION. Imagination is so *unique* yet common to us, I like to think it would absolutely blow the minds of any Alien Visitors. They just don't have the ability to fancifully speculate, all they can do is make assumptions based on fact. Fiction would be impossible for them to comprehend, and may even frighten them. "YOU JUST CREATED AN ENTIRE WORLD WITH YOUR MIND!?!?" and then their heads explode.
