I have a good musical ear, not in the way of perfect pitch but I can find nice chord progressions easily. Could call it musical visualization perhaps?

I’m polarizing, both in a good and a bad way, and I always have been.

No matter where I’ve been or what I’ve been doing, people tend to remember me. I’ve ran into teachers decades after I was in their classrooms and they instantly called me by name and remembered something I said or did in class. Same thing with old jobs. When I started teaching, some of the office staff instantly said “welcome back!”

Even casual acquaintances seem to pick me out quickly. Last week a random person I admittedly didn’t remember myself said “I remember you at Borders” (back when that bookstore chain existed) and remembered an argument I made and how heated it got about what was (at the time) my controversial opinion that refinancing mortgages was a very bad idea and the fact they were so aggressively pushed on TV was a sign that the entire thing was going to go tits-up. That person remembered my opinion because they were mad at me for saying they were making a mistake… and they wound up being between one house they couldn’t sell when the recession started and another house they could no longer afford to pay for that they were trying to move in to.

I didn’t hold that over their head; actually I was glad they crawled out of that mess and were doing better. It’s harder to be mad at people in person.

I’m good at fixing things. It’s great for saving money but it’s not that I don’t like it, I just get tired of having to do it all the time.

I can tell if it’s not butter.

I have really good hand-eye coordination, move very quietly, have fast reflexes, and am good at solving riddles.

I think it sets me up to be talented at a profession which pays very well but is very illegal so it shall go nameless.

I am a maestro at taking out boogers out of my dog’s eyes. All of that juicy goodness gone in a single scoop.

Being alive. In my whole life I haven’t died even once.

Im really good at throwing balled up napkins into the trashcan.

I’m ambidextrous and really good at tech support.

I’m a perfect failure. If you hand me anything, no matter how complex or simple, I will fuck it up beyond all chance of repair and you will never figure out how it happened because even I don’t know.

Citation: my life, job, friends, ex-gf, family, hobbies, etc…

My ability to whip a story up at the spot is pretty damn good. I run Dungeons and Dragons in a homebrewed world, and a good part of it is made up on the spot. While doing this, I always make sure to keep consistency.

The only thing I’m lacking is long monologues… That is hard to just make up

I recently discovered I can use an angle grinder with a level of precision and finess most people take some time to develop.

From free hand cutting straight lines into pretty much anything that can be cut, to precise cut of stone, cement or even metal.

I was dead afraid of this particular power tool for all my life and only when forced to use one to do some repairs around the house I discovered I could handle it so easily.

I can smell extremely well. Can tell where coworkers / family members were (like on the staircase, in a room etc), recognize which seasoning is used in foods, that sort of stuff. Every once in a while I try to follow scents like a dog but it doesn’t work out that well.

On an unrelated note, I hate taking the subway, especially on hot days for uhh reasons.

Also I can hear pretty good, my friends use me as sound radar in Audio-Direktion heavy FPS games like Tarkov or back then PUBG.

My eyesight is pretty bad tho, probably for Balancing.

Sure you think paper snowflakes are useless but wait for an elementary school play to need set design and they will crawl in their hands and knees to rescue them 😉

I’m good at puzzles, particularly like jigsaw puzzles, but also games like flow where you match the pipes. I can sometimes do it so quickly I don’t understand how I know what I’m doing, it’s more like instinct.
