What easy things are you just shit at?

[coastergirl]

It's ridiculous. I'm a 37 year old woman. I have 2 kids, a job I love. I function reasonably well!

I cannot butter bread. I make a complete mess of it. Holes in the bread etc. I can't blame it on hard butter because I use marg.

I'm ill and bored. Please make me feel better by telling me the "easy" things you're shit at.

I'm also shit at make up. How girls do that steady eye liner I've no idea. Looking stylish , I don't think I ever have to be honest

I can't look stylish. I'm naturally scruffy and have no sense of style at all. Thankfully I do a job where jeans and goodies are standard.

Omelettes. I end up with scrambled egg or a fried egg-thing. Disaster. Otherwise a competent cook.

Omelettes.

I can multitask with my brain (as in concentrate on multiple things at once) but cannot multitasking with my body e.g. I can't walk and sip water/pop a mint in my mouth. I have to stop walking the sip/put mint in.

I couldn’t make an omelette to save my life....and yet my partner and DD both do it so effortlessly 🙄

Tying laces despite all the time I had to sit with the giant red plastic shoe to learn in the 90s. I just embrace velcro now.

I can't keep plants alive.
I can cook but until recently I couldn't make soup
I can't blow my nose

Driving, been trying to learn for years, millions of other people are able to do it so why not me????

We have to do regular PCR tests at work..absolutely dreaded making up the tiny box to put test in! I just couldn’t do it ! Thankfully they just go into a plastic bag now .

I also can't make an omelette. It always turns out like burned scrambled eggs

Have just one glass of wine 😄

Work out change if someone offers me the extra pence as well as a note

Cracking an egg, I get shell in it everytime. Everytime. Just can't do it.

I also cannot butter bread! I assumed I was the only one

@SliceOfCakeCupOfTea

Eating spaghetti with a fork and spoon where they do the twirly thing into the spoon bit...makes no sense!!!

Hold the spoon still and twirl the fork only. Raise the fork and spoon up and down so some spaghetti drops off as you're twirling.

Can't whistle or cook an omelette!

Wordle.

DD is 14 and was hooting watching me try to do it this morning. I have a degree and English lit a'level and I read constantly.

I can't make my brain work that way.

Telling the time on a clock!

Doing rice in a pan, use a cooker now

Are you my husband OP
He kills bread too regardless of how soft the spread is :)

I'm shit at cake baking - even boxed, follow the instruction, add an egg types go to shit.
I can cook, bake pies, quiches, biscuits and allsorts just not cakes.
Also I'm shit at applying eyeliner - without fail I poke the twat in my eye and even the odd occasion I manage not to it just looks a mess. I've given up and use eyeshadow as an eyeliner if I want some on.

I can't make scones, they always come out flat regardless of which recipe I use and I follow them exactly!

Using door handles.

You need to leave the tea bag in for at least 4 minutes.
Occasional stir.

Me? Omelettes.

Pancakes!
Sewing.

Anything on a computer. The more DH tells me it's intuitive, the more I'm sure my intuition definitely doesn't work that way.

Make an omelette or fry an egg.. it just sticks to the pan and makes an unappetising mess

Wind the cord in something like a Henry hoover

Struggle to put the duvet in the duvet cover

I cannot cook decent Indian style lentil curry.... despite being Indian and it being a staple food for families like my own.
My mother and MIL just pity my attempts now

Understanding the old time when the clocks go back or forward. I remember Spring Forward, Fall Back but for the life of me can't work out if what it'd be old time. It's very embarrassing.
