The Untalent Show Part 2

I can write with both hands, and i can read and write backwards, (mirrored)

I'm really good at boiling eggs.

I can start a campfire with a battery.

you are my girl, Abbie. I write forward and backwards at the same time with each hand...upside down and upside down and backwards too! Great Parlor tricks!
We've got weird brains.

I can get over a cold in three weeks. Not sure if my getting well is some sort of accident.

Dave

I can set the smoke alarm off everyday!

Now if I could just find one that turns off when I yell...
"I'm just cooking!"

I can shoot hoops better with one hand then with 2....totally uncoordinated when I use both hands!

When I trip going up stairs I can always turn it into dance steps.

I can juggle 25 balls at one time and only drop 24 of them!

LOL!!

I can brush my teeth for 5 entire minutes!

I can dance like a professional...when no one is looking.

I can still recite Ladle Rat Rotten Hut, memorized when I was a child...

I can usually go walking quite safely over the roughest terrain, but can trip and fall not the flat pavement.

I can do tricks with a butterfly knife, and then drive myself to the ER with one hand.

I'm brilliant at reaching out to light switches from my office chair and feeling the chair fly across the room ----- without me!

I can read music - on the piano I can play either cleft with either hand - I cannot play both hands together or both clefts at the same time. (PS: I don't read music near as well as I used to.)

edit: Cynthia - I know what a butterfly knife is - many won't - I don't think.

I can make my cat think I understand what she's saying when she meows. I convincingly say "I know...I know" (but really I don't... I don't know).

I can sing along, word for word, to Run DMC's Jam Master Jay.

I can and frequently do come up with new and creative ways to cuss at any one of my electronic devices. (Although it's usually my fault they aren't doing what I want them to.)

I know what a butterfly knife is too...does that count ?

I see faces in everything. I never forget a face. I also see body parts in shapes and paintings that don't have body parts. It's a yucky untalent, lol.

I can glance out the window from my desk at any time of day and see my neighbor either walking out to get in his car, or getting out of his car to go inside.

It's like Groundhog Day. Hundreds of times a week, no matter what time.

I have a habit of taking words and changing the first letter to either the middle or swapping letters of two words... example Malibu.. I say Bulimau?!? lol My family doesn't seem to think that this is an untalent. They think it's annoying? :) Great News is Neat Grews. I won't keep going in case it might be annoying? :) But now I think a lot of you are trying it and just might have "caught" this disease, I mean, untalent. :)

Marlene and Abbie, that's really cool (especially forward and backwards at the same time, Marlene).

< Not that

As you see, I can never, ever, type 'muchy' without a 'y'.........

These are great!

I can bend my tongue behind my teeth.

My toast is absolutely brilliant

I take it you make a mean breakfast, David.

I can remember the lyrics to thousands of songs from the 60s and 70s but I can't remember where I left my car keys.

That is impressive, John. I have a untalent in screwing up lyrics. Singing along with the wrong words. When I was way younger and George Michael's songs were popular, there was one song that I could swear he was saying, "Would you like me to introduce you" but it actually said, "Would you like me to seduce you".

I have the ability to get younger! When my older daughter was 1 year old, I was 33 times as old as she. In just one year I got that down to just 17 times her age. When she turned 12 I was just less than 4 times her age!

Now I am only slightly more than two times her age. At this rate, Soon she'll be older than me!

LOL @ Uther!!!

Jani, I had a little problem with understanding words to songs too. I thought those lyrics were, "Climb every woman!".

BTW, I don't write upside down, backwards, inside out or with both hands. It just looks that way. :)

Jani,
Here's the website for you: http://kissthisguy.com/

'scuse me while I kiss the sky!

I can raise my right eyebrow and wiggle it.
And same as John Haldane.

I can drum with my feet! (with drumsticks)

I can make up songs on the spot about just about anything and sing them loudly.

Whenever I have pets I can make up dozens of nicknames for them.

"I can raise my right eyebrow and wiggle it. "

We are eyebrow siblings. I consider my eyebrows to be my most expressive feature. They always want to trim them at Great Clips but I won't let anybody but me touch them.

Any fool, heck, every fool can lose one sock.

But it takes an Un-talented fool to always lose the same sock.

I only lose the right sock!

The other sock is always my left sock!

I have an amazing ability to procrastinate for weeks on end.

Sharon,
I hope this thread is open in a few weeks, so we can see your comment! lol

I have the talent to convince myself that I am fascinating.

And handsome.

And funny.

And smell good.

And big boned. (The "I'm not fat," kind)

And shmaht. (People often mention Fredo!)

And short winded.

Lol @ Uther.

I can buy the ingredients for two cakes, prepare them both and only one will become a cake!
I have a firm 50% success rate in the baking department.

That is a better success rate than I have with bread. I can make amazing bread, but only if I knead it in the bread machine. If I knead it any other way it comes out badly.

Janine, I need to have you over to drink wine, bake bread and then whine!
My bread machine committed suicide.... jumped right off the kitchen countertop

My recipe for bread; take bread down from shelf and put into cart, push cart to cash register, hand cashier money, take bread home.

Lol davidk!

I have an untalent of soaking the right sleeve of my sweater every time I try to clean out my kitchen sink. It won't stay up. No matter how many times I roll up that sleeve, it just will not stay up. Happens at least once a day.

I'm really good at vacuuming...love those lines, but alas, I have all tile floors.

Marlene, as a housekeeper for my day job, I can tell you with authority. Vacuum lines, especially perfect ones, are definitely an untalent.

I hear ya, Rose..I mean, Mary...I have an untalent for never getting a person's name correct.

Jani,
Some people see dead people...I see typos and mistakes everywhere....t.v., movies, menus, books...they smack me in the face.
You may say that's a talent...but I think it only becomes a talent when one markets it! The rest of the time, it's just annoying.

I would agree. It is annoying. Lol

I h@te it when peaple do it two me.

I have an untalent of mispelling words when I write them on posters or home made signs. Even if I write it out ahead of time.

haha, Jani!
Let's see,
I can cross one eye, my tongue curls midway and the sides touch each other, my thumbs fold down to my forearms...oh yeah, and I can still wrap my leg behind my neck.
I think that about covers everything worthless. lol

Ya, but can you do it all at once, Marlene?
:-D
