Weird Talents?

It seems anybody and everybody whom I ask has some sort of weird talent. So I thought, start a topic on weird talents.

Post you weird talent here. Anything from the ability to fly, to putting your ankles behind your head.

Personaly? I'm more flexable than most people I know, can crack every bone in my body (some at will, some not. :\) and can do some sort of weird.. thing with my hand. Like it pulls a finger muscle closer to the skin to simulate a large heartbeat. That really freaks people out. XD
 
my elbows, knees, and jaw can hyperextend. a lot :X

i thought it was totally normal until one day i was in 5th grade, i was sitting with my arms out behind me and one elbow all hyperextended and someone yelled out "WTH HER ARM IS BROKEN?!?!?!??" and everyone freaked out

i can also put my entire fist into my mouth, or an entire red delicious apple (and close my lips over it), or like 43 marshmallows (and still be able to talk legibly). though my tendons are rather weak now so I've been advised to stop hyperextending so much :(
 
Nothing creeps me out. In fact, I feel nothing but amusement when other's get wierded out by anything. This makes me very efficient at alienating everyone I meet.
 
I don't have an an ankle on my right foot...

I was born with a club foot, so my ankle was never formed right...So, instead of a bone on the right side of my right foot, I have skin, and fat there....no bone. This makes it so I can't rotate my ankle in circles! I don't know if this is a talent rather than a misfortune...but hey! Who's counting.

I dabble. So, right, I get interested in almost everything, right? But never enough to really make it "a big thing" in my life. So I can convince people that I'm really into anime, for instance, even though I've literally seen about 2-3 episodes of about 4-5 anime total, and convince another person that anime fans on the whole are complete dorks. The drawback to dabbling is that no one ever knows what to get me for Christmas. ;_;

Now, you might not call that a talent....... So. I can make my jaw pop at will. And I have the ability to *not* fall asleep anywhere but a bed, under covers. So I'll be at the computer until 3 in the morning, exhausted, but not asleep. Unfortunately this ability extends to 12 hours plane flights. >_<
 
Yeah... Tindy reminded me that I have the talent to literally sleep ANYWHERE. I once maneged to fall asleep with my shoulders on one bench my legs on a bench facing it and the middle of my back supported by a suitcase. The rest of me was basically hanging in midair. And man, did I sleep good. :haha:
 
My body is too boring to be able to do anything cool. The "weirdest" thing I can do is put my oot above my head. And I can't really do that anymore :(

I'm a goldmine for useless facts, though. And I have the power to break any technology or machinery I touch!
 
Every time I eat beans on toast, I drop one bean on my top. Only ever one. But that one bean will be the one with all the ketchup on.
 
I only poop about 4 times a month. I don't know if that's normal or bad or what. I can make my ankle pop REALLY loud if I'm sitting on the ground, freaks out a lot of people. I can make the little raindrop sound with my mouth. Uhh.. can't think of anything else atm.

You poop 4 times a month?

You should see a doctor. I think the usual's something more like 2. I poop three times, but I'm a big boy.
 
actually e that is not right
it only takes 18 hours to digest a meal
so it be more normal to poop about every 3 or 4 days

btw my pal can stretch his ears to 4 times their normal size O.o
 
it's weird to be able to put your toes in your mouth? i thought that was just being mildly flexible. i can do it too (though i dont because toes are gross)

also yeah uh you should be pooping every day, or every other day at worst ... you need more fiber psiclone :eek:


im a human dictionary i guess. i can spell almost any word perfectly and define almost anything off the top of my head. i didn't think that was particularly extraordinary or anything but apparently i'm the "go-to" person on all spelling and "what does this mean" queries at every place i've ever worked or class ive ever taken ... :0
 
man sometimes i poop 3 times a day
though my metabolism is kickass (geddit?), after every meal I instantly go to the toilet.
(but this could also be because of the previous meal)

can also put my toes in my mouth
though people with longer legs can do that more easily than shorties. mm
 
I can sleep for days, not sure it's a good thing. I have this flexibility in my neck, I can move it sideways like those African girls. It freeks people out.
I get things fast, if I set out to fix some machine that's broken (I'm a girl), or try a new talent I never tried before- like playing a song on a piano- I figure it out in minutes. I can get into a class in the last 20 minutes, and pick up what I've lost from the context.

Yes. Toes are fucking gross. I hate it when my girlfriend wants me to rub her feet.. ugh. She's got perfect looking feet, I just hate touching anyone's feet.

About the fiber, we've got some fiber pills that we keep around, and when I cactually remember to take them daily, I actually poop every day, sometimes twice. I just don't like taking them before work because I don't want to shit in a public toilet.. so basically, it comes down to me never taking them.
