What pointless 'talent' do you have?

[TellMeItsNotTrue]

Just talking with a friend about pointless 'talents' and wondered what yours are

She was working out when she could next have paracetamol and I just said it immediately, when I was a teen I spent a lot of time having inhalers for my asthma every 4 hours, so it turns out I can still work out 4 hours immediately without thinking about it

She chipped in that she can fold her tongue in to a w shape

I can smell when people unwell or about to be and what type of illness they will get/have. I hate hate hospitals because I can smell so many illnesses. I thought everyone could do this until a few years ago when I asked someone how they were feeling and they replied fine. I told my Dh it was odd because she smelt like she had a sinus infection. He looked at me like I was mental- the next day she posted on Facebook that she was ill with a sinus infection.
My daughter is coeliac and I can smell when she has accidentally eaten gluten before she reacts to it.

You have a great talent for sarcasm

I can wiggle my left little toe, without wiggling the rest of them (wow)
Oh and I do a good Mickey Mouse voice

I can look at food and get fat

I can make a whole pack of Jaffa cakes disappear in seconds

Flissypix i can do that with some illnesses too! I think its learnt behaviour from my own illnesses. I have diabetes and can smell high and low blood sugar before i feel it and can smell a kidney infection (not my pee..just generally) a day or 2 before the symptoms start

I can dislocate my thumb and get out of handcuffs...

I can make a square with my mouth.

That's about it really 😀

And I can spot a spider at a hundred paces though that isn't pointless. Very pointful I would I have said.

I can make my eyes go wibbly. The pupil/iris bit basically vibrates v quickly from side to side.

I can also do v loud burps on purpose.

I am a Hoot 😐

I can burp at will. Useful!

Oh, and I can move one eye independently sideways (but only a little)...

@AnAirborneFluffyWhiteThing

You may have done...........

I can pick up a shot glass off the floor with my mouth. Only feet on floor.
(Not very classy)

I can guess large sums or complicated mathematical questions correctly, but if I try to work them out I can't. I have to literally say the first number that comes into my head.

I can set fire to a shot of Sambuca in my mouth, breathe fire, close my mouth and swallow it without getting burnt.
Ta da!!!

I can make a fart noise by pressing my palms together.

I remember dates and numbers. I can still remember sort code and account numbers of regular customers from my first job in a bank 15 years ago. I remember birthdays of people h that it would freak them out to know I still remember their birthday.

I can bowl a googly, properly. The ball comes out of the back of my hand with loads of spin.

@DuckingMel you sound super cool, just like me

I don't know why or how but I remember mobile / landline numbers even if I have only heard it once. My entire brain is like a phone book. It's freaky. I don't how I can. I see numbers as numbers and colours as well. 7 is blue etc -it's a bit weird.

One of my DC can remember history dates on the first read. Their whole head is full of dates.

Apocalypse Wish we could have a burp off!

I can break an apple in half just using my hands. I can also remember irrelevant things people have said ages after they've said them. People love it when I remind them that it's funny they don't like stuffed peppers because in March 2007 they said exactly the opposite...

bertielab my bro is the same, he doesn’t store names against contacts in his phone, just knows the numbers. He’s known as rain man for his weird ability with numbers.

Mine is that I’m as yet undefeated at thumb wars. And I’ve won thousands of matches. Sadly no money has resulted from my astonishing talent

I can attract cats, wherever I have lived I have always ended up with a stray, feral, neighbours cat (or all 3) sitting on my outside windowsill or patio, staring in demanding their supper!
