Useless talents

[Mama Looigi]

Do you have any “useless talents”? If so, do please share

For example, mine would be:
I have the ability to listen to consecutive noises, then regardless of the speed, instantly play the sequence back in my head and count the amount of times the noise was made.

I remember on Penn and Teller's show "Bullshit" where they explained the concept of Perceptual subitizing, and it sounds like you're describing the audible version of that. I think I remember them saying the average person can "see" what number of objects there are without counting up to 5, but some can go way higher than the average person, assuming there isn't a clear pattern to help us recognize it, like on dice.

I've always had a keen ability to empty my mind, ever since I was a kid. I have to initially focus to do it, but I remember doing it regularly when I was around 4 and accidentally discovered meditation. It was extremely trippy to me. Ironically, I have ADHD, so typically my mind has at least 3 different layers of topics floating around, but if I consciously want to dump those thoughts, I can usually do it. Helps me fall asleep, but otherwise I don't really do it anymore. So I suppose it's useless until I decide to maybe make meditation a habit.

All of my crazy trivia comes to mind, but I can stretch my arms behind my back and hold my hands around the middle.

I have weird nerves and joints that freak people out. I can individually move my ears and my eyebrows. I have extra nerves in my legs and arms. I can touch my pinky to my index finger. I am ambidextrous. I also have autistic determination, where I can commit to a task far longer than any normal individual should.

Not really useless if you'd ask me, that should help immensely if you're a musician, in counting/recalling musical notes, melodies, time signatures, instrumentations, working out different improv possibilities Etc. The list goes on..

Another useless """""""Talent""""""" is that when I listen to music my brain will come up with scenarios to go with the music as its playing.

I can make things that works, into things that won't work without me even touching them.

Very useless talent I have, I can play cricket. I think it is very useless. What do you think?

I can play chess, doesn't mean I am any good, or that it's a talent
If you enjoy it and play it with friends, it's not useless at all!

I can eat three whole sleeves of Oreo in a single evening.

@JuanMena can shove full sized eggs to the back of his throat. I wonder what else that could be used for.

I might also add that @JuanMena can do that without gagging.

The best thing about being with someone who has Parkinson... is that they makes the best milk-shakes.

..So his ass is not the only part in him that's loose

he was so boy crazy back in the 60s. when he was high school, he kept talking about wanting to be homecoming queen, but he was too shy to ask the quarterback of the football team, me, out.

I really ripped him a new one, so now I can finger one while fucking the other.
