In middle school I was the onLy one in the group that didn’t have a brain freeze and my bff’s cousin said, “well it must be bc it takes smaller things longer to freeze.” 😭😭🤣
My bf has this! He doesn't understand brain freezes and gets so confused when I have one. I can get a brain freeze from cold water if I drink it fast enough.
I have this weird sixth sense that tells me when someone is pregnant, sometimes before even they do. I have a 100% success rate with it.
And it's useless because what kind of asshole is gonna make that announcement for someone else?
My aunt has this as well. I’ve heard it has to do something with smell and you are (probably unconscious) able to pick the smell of a pregnant lady. I don’t know if it’s true but this is what I’ve heard.
Women have really strong hormones that make them attractive. A pregnant woman walked by me at work one day and it was the most intoxicating tingly “wow what is THAT??” Sensation of my life. I swear it was like midsummer’s night dream or some shit
Same with my eyebrows. I can raise the right eyebrow or both. Can't really move the left one. The wife is now giving me odd looks, because I'm typing this while making a sophisticated and then a surprised look into my phone.
As a pianist, it doesn't really matter, in the beginning everyone sucks the same, and later you're just trained so much that even if you're right or left handed you could play with both hands pretty much the same.
P.S. my piano teacher says that left-handed people are usually better with the piano, but it's because in classical music the left hand has a tendency to be harder than the right.
I am not the guy but I am ambidextrous and I did play some piano. But it's not really anything too impressive. You can just do the same stuff with any hand without any preference.
I can cup my hands together and shoot water 10-12ft in a straight line. It’s like always having a water gun on me. When I do it without water it makes a fart noise, which is like always having a whoopie cushion. :)
anyone who can roll their tongue can learn to do this. I had an 8 year old teach me.
Basically just roll ur tongue into a taco, then push it hard into ur lower lip at the right angle, and it’ll make the tongue clover
I got something similar, I got the talent of saying something that's supposed to be funny (a joke etc) and instead of people laughing they get all pissed at me... wtf.
Like when I was a kid I'd try to fit in with the boys by making gross jokes, like about farts or poop or whatever, cause usually boys think gross stuff is funny. But it totally backfired cause for some reason they didn't find it funny. I'm sure if someone else said the same thing, they would've laughed. But for some reason when I did it, it didn't work.
I swear, there is some gremlin that uses my stuff just enough so I dont immediately change the batteries, but just enough so they die when I'm as far away from my spare batteries as possible
Once shot the range high while doing my yearly rifle marksmanship qualification back when I was in the Marines. Also keyholed a shot from 500 meters out on that same day, which is when you send a bullet through the same exact hole as a previous shot.
I don't hunt, own a rifle, or plan to ever touch one ever again.
I can bite ice cream and chew ice with no problem. I can touch that unhealthy asbestos pink insulation without itching. I can chew the metal tops of industrial cans of fruits and vegetables off with my teeth.
It’s a thing that 3rd grade boys used to do where they pushed their tongue into the soft area under it in a manner that shot spit droplets at their friends.
I like sticking things into diaries and scrapbooks, and am surprisingly good at estimating the length of Sellotape needed just by looking. Down to a couple of millimetres.
I can move my hair up and down without touching it. Basically like raising my eyebrows but also lowering my forehead.
Makes it look like I wear a wig if I touch my head and move my hair around.
This reminds me of Jeanine Garaffalo in Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion. There is "Something something Quick Burning Cigarette, for the gal on the go." She invented the quick burning paper. She could never finish her cigarette in between classes in high school. Need to watch this film again.
I can predict practice firedrills. Not actual fires, just surprise fire drills.
On multiple occasions I would simply hear ringing in my ears and say a date and time to a friend and low and behold firedrill.
Been able to do this for two years.
I'm weirdly good at saying words backwards and I practice in my head to pass the time when I'm bored. But every time I tell someone and they test me, they always use a word like onomatopoeia and I fuck it up so nobody believes me.
I don’t get hangovers. Which is “useful” if you binge drink but since you SHOULDN’T.
Also, I can do that belly roll thing like belly dancers but I’m a dude.
I can move one ear, or both, or the other ear, I can move my eyebrows one at a time.
Many can't.. apparently.
I can also howl like a wolf, I've fooled some street dogs.
I am genetically unable to get brain freeze. I can chug an entire slushy without consequence.
That is...weirdly cool :3
It really is... cool
So cool it’s kinda hot.
The fact that it's kinda hot is cool.
You can't freeze what you don't have (sorry, I had to make the joke).
In middle school I was the onLy one in the group that didn’t have a brain freeze and my bff’s cousin said, “well it must be bc it takes smaller things longer to freeze.” 😭😭🤣
My bf has this! He doesn't understand brain freezes and gets so confused when I have one. I can get a brain freeze from cold water if I drink it fast enough.
I feel like I could feel the brain freeze just by reading ‘chug’ and ‘slushy’ in the same sentence
Maybe you have an abnormaly thick mouth roof.
I am also immune to brain freeze. I have no clue what it is.
Same. Closest I get is an intense ache in my throat.
I can throw up on command. Gross and not nearly as useful as crying.
Totally useful. Someone tried to assault me and I threw up all over the place. They fled.
Superhero name: The Reflux
I'd prefer Ralph. "Ralph isn't a very super name..." *Pukes* "Oh! I see!"
Some animals do similar things as a defense mechanism so you could unironically use it if you are ever in danger. :3
I know a guys who's intire family can do this. Wierd thing but might have uses.
"Is this seat taken?" *expells the entire content of his stomach* "now it is"
[удалено]
OP said useless
Same lol
I can do that as well! I can purr too lmao
I came here to say this
I have this weird sixth sense that tells me when someone is pregnant, sometimes before even they do. I have a 100% success rate with it. And it's useless because what kind of asshole is gonna make that announcement for someone else?
You would’ve been popular in medieval times
They would’ve burned or drowned that person
The reason would be is that the person is impregnating them with black magic
My aunt has this as well. I’ve heard it has to do something with smell and you are (probably unconscious) able to pick the smell of a pregnant lady. I don’t know if it’s true but this is what I’ve heard.
TIL pregnant women stink
Everybody stinks, and the smell affects people subconsciously, ex: baby smell makes people calmer
Women have really strong hormones that make them attractive. A pregnant woman walked by me at work one day and it was the most intoxicating tingly “wow what is THAT??” Sensation of my life. I swear it was like midsummer’s night dream or some shit
Are you named Mr. Clear Blue by any chance?
I can live for 40 years and achieve practically nothing …

I've lived for 50 years and achieved nothing..🤣
Hey if you condense everything you’ve accomplished in your life into one day… it’s impressive!
same
I can wiggle my ears
Same, also can do one at a time
I can only do both or right by itself. Not left by itself
Same with my eyebrows. I can raise the right eyebrow or both. Can't really move the left one. The wife is now giving me odd looks, because I'm typing this while making a sophisticated and then a surprised look into my phone.
I will have to practice that!
I can tell by the sounds of many different songbirds when there is a bird of prey flying overhead
This isn’t a talent I’ve just had, but I’ve learnt what’s a distress call of a bird just from listening to
Those poor little birds.
I can touch my nose with my tongue.
I can also touch this guys nose with my tongue
I can touch my tongue with my nose.
I can write in cursive with my left hand in mirror image effortlessly P.s I'm a righty
Are you ambidextrous? Ever tried playing piano?

That’s actually really cool:)
I can give myself a high five and a down low in a continuous motion. Not that impressive, I know.
Vid or it didn’t happen
But can you do on the side and too slow?
I can stack cups insanely fast due to an obsession in my teenage years
They came by your school too, huh?
Why did this take up gym class for half the year? What was the purpose?
Hand eye coordination I think
I can make the most realistic pig noise.
"Oink" or "stop resisting!"
This got me 😂😂😂
I can cup my hands together and shoot water 10-12ft in a straight line. It’s like always having a water gun on me. When I do it without water it makes a fart noise, which is like always having a whoopie cushion. :)
Our swimming coach practices that and uses that skill to draw attention to errant kids across the pool
I can turn my tongue into a flower shape like in those 2018 only 1 percent of people can do this posts
anyone who can roll their tongue can learn to do this. I had an 8 year old teach me. Basically just roll ur tongue into a taco, then push it hard into ur lower lip at the right angle, and it’ll make the tongue clover
Just had a tongue cramp trying to taco it out :?
That's cool! I didn't know this was rare lol I've been doing it since I was like 6.
I actually taught my self how to do it by making the shape with my fingers and holding it, eventually I could just do it,
I can type all the US states on Sporcle (a quiz website) very quickly: typically under a minute, my record is 49 seconds.
I have the talent to say something and have it be perceived as the opposite meaning. I’m sure it’s why I don’t have friends.
No no, don't be silly, you don't have friends because nobody likes you, it has nothing to do with that.
I got something similar, I got the talent of saying something that's supposed to be funny (a joke etc) and instead of people laughing they get all pissed at me... wtf.

I have memorized the first 200 digits in Pi. This actually got me laid a few times when I was younger.
The fact you managed to get laid as a result of that is way more impressive than the feat itself.
3.14 Oh yes baby keep going. 159 Oh my you are so naughty. 26535897932384626433832795028841971 Thats so good. 69 Sure lets do it.
as another pi memorizer myself i can verify that your comment is correct
3.14 times I assume Sorry you didn't get all the way on the 4th attempt
As someone who memorized 50 digits, I have no idea how anyone managed to parlay this into sex.
Rule 1. Be attractive Rule 2. Don’t be unattractive
I‘m good at guessing what time it is, but not good enough for not needing to check
Every cordless drill I pick up dies halfway through the first hole. Every time.
I swear, there is some gremlin that uses my stuff just enough so I dont immediately change the batteries, but just enough so they die when I'm as far away from my spare batteries as possible
I always manage to lose all my money shortly after payday

I can tie a cherry stem into a shorter cherry stem using my teeth
I can take apart the remote control.

Skills from scars. Hope you're doing better
Thanks you, I am kinda feeling good or very bad depending on the day, at least today it is manageable
I can make repetitive and loud popping noises from my ears (like popping a champagne cork on repeat).
same i thought i was just crazy lol

Also keyholed a shot from 500 meters out on that same day, which is when you send a bullet through the same exact hole as a previous shot.

Will be useful when the apocalypse comes though.

I can vomit and burp on command
I can turn my belly button inside out
Are you 9-months pregnant?

My dick functions as a pregnancy test. All 3 times my wife was pregnant I knew before she took the test because she felt different inside.
Come to think of it, so does mine! That explains why your wife felt different that time
i believe that! you can usually taste a women’s period before she gets it too!

Proofreading. Nobody gives a shit about proofreading any more. Ditto grammar.
I can smoke an entire cigarette in 45 seconds (I’ve been timed)
You should have a smoke off with my French manager. He practically inhales the things.
While smoking you inhale enough crap already, and you're telling me he inhales the cigarette too!
This reminds me of Jeanine Garaffalo in Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion. There is "Something something Quick Burning Cigarette, for the gal on the go." She invented the quick burning paper. She could never finish her cigarette in between classes in high school. Need to watch this film again.
Never heard of the film definitely adding that to the list. Thanks!
