What are your unique abilities that nobody else you know can do, and what tihng everyone else can do can't you do? For example, I can't make a noise whenever I snap my fingers. I've never mastered it.

I can snap my toes, but not my fingers.

I can bend my fingers at the outer-most knuckle to almost a right angle. I can also pull my thumb over the top of my hand.

I can will my stomach to shove the food it has down the small intestine---this is called biofeedback, I think. Helps against naseua(sp?) during sleep.

I can't snap my fingers either. Never could. Can't whistle, either. Damn.

I can snap my fingers only most of the time. As for whistling, I can whistle breathing in as well as out.

No offense, Barbara.

I can't stick my tongue out.

I can twist my tounge upside-down without touching it or using my lips and such to hold it there. I can't whistle using the two finger method and never understood how people can do it.. though I can whistle breathing in and out too...

Bwahahaha, you can't stick your tongue out?! Watch this *sticks tongue in and out continuously* bwahahaha *walks away sticking tongue in and out*.

Edit: Wait, how do you tongue kiss? Or lick? Guess have to make due with what you have, either that or you can actually stick your tongue out some which is what I think is what you meant.

You look silly.

I don't. I can only get it out a few millimeters beyond my teeth. It's a physical defect. There's a surgical fix but I haven't gotten around to having it done yet.

I can make disgusting popping and cracking noises with my left wrist and shoulder, really handy for grossing girls out. I also can't squat on my right leg 'cause I screwed up my knee.

Extremely stupid, but I can direct 3/4 and 4/4 time simultaneously.

Which hand is doing 3/4?
(yes, I can do that too. Comes from YEARS of performing)

Kelly Antilles · Post by **Kelly Antilles** » 2002-12-18 10:48pm

My special talent? Well... things you guys would like would be...

Turn my tongue into a U.
Roll my tongue (back to front).
Turn my tongue over.

TrailerParkJawa · Post by **TrailerParkJawa** » 2002-12-18 10:49pm

I can flip my tongue over in one direction but not the other.

That's good to know.

Anyway, I can't repeat a rhythm. I mean, I can sing or hum it, but I can't clap a rhythm that someone else has just done.

Quake+Marijuana: Gimme a toke or two (or three) and put me on a Quake server, and oh the horrific damage I can dish out!!

I can spot an enemy at the edge of my view, whip the crosshair around to lock onto him, and have him eating my railgun slug. All in the space of ~200 milliseconds. I also develop rather strong precognition, so I know exactly when to fire that rocket so it meets the poor enemy flag carrier as he's coming around the bend. I also develop a bit of clairvoyance, so campers and backstabbers watch out!
Marijuana:The Poor Man'sAimb0t Wallhack.

Non-Quake/Illicit Substances: I cannot dance. It's a physical impossibility.

My long, dextrous 'magic' fingers.

I can burp extremely loud, at will, without the help of any carbonated beverages or any other type of food. I can also crack my neck, which makes the most satisfying sound ever.

I cannot draw a straight line to save my life, however.

Post by **Zaia** » 2002-12-19 12:28am

Hmmmm......what is appropriate to share.......hmmm.....

*angelic smile* I'll be good:

I seem to be able to put myself in the shoes of anyone, whether I know them very, very well or hardly at all and can explain to them how they are feeling better than they themselves can. I've done this many times, with the people telling me, "Yes, that's exactly how I feel! Those are the words I wanted but couldn't quite find--how did you do that?"

I can't...hmmm, what can't I do? I know there's plenty... *furrows brow* Lemme think. I'll come back to it.

consequences · Post by **consequences** » 2002-12-19 12:35am

I can do addition, subtraction, and basic multiplication in my head at speeds that scare some people.
I couldn't write neatly to save my anal virginity however.

Since Utsanomiko didn't list what he's bad at, I'll do it:

His handwriting is for shit. One of the worst I've ever seen.
