I have no specific talent. Though I have no specific weakness, either.

I'm entirely mediocre. And I'm okay with it. :)




If I were to not be in a weird mood, I'd say acting. I'm a pretty **** good actor.

I can snap my fingers in 5 or more different ways. (As in snapping in sound, not as in joints)

I can also snap my fingers without using my thumb either. I wouldn't say manually dextrous, because the ability to produce sound with my fingers in many different ways isn't by any means dextrous. I actually can't even pull my fingers back farther than 60 degrees past the rest (straight hand) position. I've seen people pull it to the back of their hand...

I can also play the Trumpet, but I quit Band for this upcoming school year. To be in band, Marching Band is mandatory over the summer and winter months. And frankly the long hour practices and 3 hour long rehearsals in the sun is bad for me and makes me extremely exhausted, especially during school days... Besides, when Concert Band season starts, it isn't exactly fun either. We're given four boring pieces by the professor, without any input from the students, and practice them an hour each school day for the last 5 months of school. Extremely boring.

I could also say I have decent analytical skills, but I hate trying to sell myself especially in things that are related to intelligence, because there are just so many more people out there that are dozens of times better than me. I mean, I'm in the top ten (not percent, but actual students) of my 650 student class and I'm becoming a senior this year, so this upcoming semester is going to be hard, sicne it'll be the last one that counts for college evaluation. IIRC, my IQ score off an online test was 140 or 150. 100 is the average, I believe.

I believe many people here will say they have a talent for Smash, but that's to be expected of this forum. I can say I'm pretty decent for a NON-tournament going Smasher, although, I'm a bit better at Melee...

Well, yeah... That's about all of my talents, I guess.

i... can drink a can of soft drink in 6 seconds
I can do it faster, especially if it's iced tea('cause there's no carbonation), also, I can bite off the top of the can before drinking it. And I don't just mean poke a hole, I can tear off the entire top of a popcan using only my teeth. I can also juggle. I'm pretty good at origami. I'm also awkwardly flexible in many ways, ie...

I'm also very good at the vidya gaems.

EDIT: I can also do this!

I have really good memorization skills. I think this applies to Smash Bros most of all, but If I seea pro playing, I can play just like that, but only for a short time.

I can impersonate the answering machine lady. I can also make female hentai noises too well.

I should be a voice actor or something.

My arms are double jointed. I can take my arms and stick my elbows directly in front of me as if they were chicken wings. I'm good at copying anything but for a short time. And I can make my eyeballs bounce, go crosseyed, and roll back into my head.

I can throw a playing card almost 100 feet. Pretty fun. If I really wanted to measure the max distance, I could probably throw it farther.

I can make fart sounds with my hands where most people have to do it with their armpits, at least when I am done my hands won't smell like sweat :D.

I can break, and even after not practicing for a while, I still don't lose too much. =.=;;

Janitor, that ain't cool. I was gonna post my time of 49 seconds, but that's peanuts, now...

But I can solve all 3-d rubik's cubes in existance!

I beat IWBTG.
O RLY? what was your time, death count, and difficulty level? (My record is 2:46, 217 deaths, on hard. Very hard is too hard XD)

Here, there and everywhere.
I've never been beaten in a game of Lionheart, chess or Risk.

Oh and I can remember the whole dialogue of a film or show by just watching it once.




I like to seem them as talents n_n

I can read people pretty fast and note something wrong with a scene within seconds. I also have a photographic memory and can mimic sounds and voices after a few practices.

When it comes to stupid human tricks, I can make gross, squishy noises with my eyelids. It's killer at parties.

I thought EVERYONE had photographic memory...

I guess I have that talent too. Although I thought everyone did:|.

Uh, very good at improvising/understanding difficult poems/Baseball and sprinting.(Ran the 100 yard dash in 7th grade in 12.2 seconds and 50 yard in 4.9).

I probably can't run that fast anymore, even though I'm older. Not into sports anymore.

While on it, I have synesthesia. I really thought people had this ability, but evidently, that's not the case at all, where only something like 1 in a million have it. Nice!

I'm a debater. I recently won an award because I'm the best high school debater in my town. I can convince most people of anything, it's fun. I'm also pretty good at creative writing.
