Dumb skills/talents most people have but you don't

I can't BBQ well consistently. Right when I think I have it down something screws up.

I'm kind of both left and right handed, but I'm kind of neither too. I do most things awkwardly.

 

Woh, I can't do the magic 3-d pics either. I had an astigmatism but had it fixed so I think it's more a brain thing.

I took 2 years of Spanish in High school and 2 years in college and all I can say is "hasta la vista, baby".

I can't type worth a crap either ( I can never get my i's capitalized as in "i can't typoe".

I am however a world class TV remote technician with an inborn stopwatch for the two minute commercial.

 

I can't whistle.

 

Or sig quotes.

 

I have no sense of restraint.

Shark

Dog

 

Don't forget the bubbles coming out of the shark... on the left side... and the badly drawn dog with a short tail... ugh...

Why was this a DUMB SKILL? Shouldn't be DUMB to be able to see these 3D pictures.

I disagree, therefore I had to REPLY to this THREAD. Maybe that's my DUMB skill most people have but I don't: Restraint from answering a thread.

 

This will be embarassing for me to say but I can't seem to add or subtract numbers at the top of my head quickly witout using my fingers as a guide. Its embarassing when I'm at work and I needed to add simple numbers using a calculator. I dunno what it is...its not like i'm stupid since I've earn ASS degree in EET which has a lot of math like calculus.

 

To my utter shame, I can't tie knots - in Boy Scouts, we had a dinner party one time, the only requirement being that everyone in attendance (including the scouts' moms) had to tie three different knots in order to get in. I couldn't even tie one. Everyone got in within 5 minutes while I stood outside attempting in vain to get just one knot right, finally the scout leader let me in out of pity. Since then I haven't even bothered to even try learning to tie the damn things

For those of you who can't see those 3D pictures:

ELAINE: (on phone) Oh, yes, yes I'll tell him. Yes, thank you. Um, um hold on. (to Pitt) Mr. Pitt!

MR. PITT: (staring at 3-D poster) I think I'm on to something!

ELAINE: Mr. Pitt! The board of directors is on the phone. They've called an emergency meeting. They want you to be there to discuss the merger!

MR. PITT: You said keep your eyes out of focus, which is misleading. You want DEEP focus!

ELAINE: (on phone) Yes, hi. Okay, fine, yeah, hold on just a second. Lemme just... (reaches into purse) Yeah, I've got it... (pulls out both hands completely covered in black ink) Oh! Oh! Yeah, yeah, he'll be there. (drops phone, rushes to Pitt) Mr. Pitt, you have GOT to stop staring at that poster!

MR. PITT: I see something that could be a spaceship. Is it round? Is it pointy?

ELAINE: (grabs poster, smashes it) No, you don't see it, and you're never going to see it! (grabs Pitt by the lapels, getting ink all over his jacket) Mr. Pitt, you have to meet with the shareholders, you have to leave now. Do you hear me? Do you hear me?!

 

Whistle.

Drive a car with manual transmission.

Type consistently without looking at the keyboard. (Can still type pretty fast though.)

 

I can't find my way through a dark cavern, without guidance. If you know what I'm saying.

 

I can't dance.

 

That loud whistle people do where they put two fingers on their lips.

I don't get that at all.

 

Your so mean! MEAN!!!

Let me know what it is.

 

The thread title should have the word "dumb" taken out.

I can't whistle blowing outward.
I can't blow a bubble.

 

Ditto.

I can't throw a baseball.

 

I can't wipe my butt.












































I kid...I KID!!!

 

Well you can pilfer because this was supposed to be mine!

 

Snap fingers
Whistle
Pleasure a woman

 

Huh? throw a baseball or throw one well?

I think anyone can literally "throw a baseball", but my high heat reaches about 16 mph.
