Do you have any special\useless skills?

Skills like:Playing piano, surfing, understanding the rules of cricket or "I can hold my breath in ten minutes".

[Tulac]

I play table tennis pretty well, that's useless I guess...

I can memorize the most useless stuff... when playing "JDOOM" some months ago, I still knew EVERY level by hard back from when I first played Doom back in the middle of the 90s... but don't ask me about anything we did in school back then :[img]http://www.abandonia.com/forum/html/emoticons/laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' />

I have some other "special skills", but I wouldn't call them "useless" at all... :angel:

[Xikarita]

I have some ''special'' skills, as well as a bunch of other useless ones, like:
-Memorizing useless stuff from videogames
- '' '' , stupid details from films
- '' '' '' songs from advertising ads

And I also have the Bible Of Dirty, Racist, Prejudicial Jokes inside my head, and I can't get it out...

[Havell]

I can do all sort of freaky stuff with my arms and hands, I can bend my fingers backwards (there's a pic of me doing that somewhere on this forum, ages ago), my elbows are double jointed, and I can reach my arm around my neck once fully (so my arm goes under my chin and I can reach the ear on the same side of my head head as the arm is).

EDIT: That and the ability to remember statistics and trivia. Alex's prison number in A Clockwork Orange was 655321. Teddy's phone number in Memento is the same as Sally's number is Fight Club, that sort of thing.

[Doubler]

Well, I can bring my shoulders together, but that's about it...

[TheChosen]

I can remember anything that has something to do with gaming.
I can act.
I can eat something before dinner without losing my appetite.

That's no "skill", it's a curse... I must know :-(

BTW, my "memory of useless knowledge" doesn't stop with games... movie quotes, random facts nobody needs to know, things I should better forget for the sake of all those involved... It's just the USEFULL knowledge wich always slips me... :[img]http://www.abandonia.com/forum/html/emoticons/laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' />

I have no useless skill. I can allways find a use for the skills I have - if nothing else I can brag about them (that's puting a usleless skill to use - and that's what you're all doing right now as well).

[efthimios]

Not sure if they belong to the term skills but...
I am very good at strategy. I can usualy (face to face) figure out if someone is lying to me by his/her voice, very good hearing- I can hear things that others usualy can't, well, more like distinguise sounds/noises than if something is very low/far away.
I have a couple more things but I better not mention them.
