They say everyone has a talent. What's yours? Also, what are you not so good at?

I'm alright at guitar I guess; I'm not very good at life though.

In my youth years I did acting, I still believe I am aright on this,

Ever since I was a kid I've been pretty good at history - especially that of the Roman and Byzantine empires, but also European and Middle Eastern history in general. Since a few years back, I guess that I also know quite a bit about the workers movement and it's history - compared to the average person - but that's not really unique on this website..

I've also always been fairly good at geography. Moreover I guess I've become decent enough at selling stuff (that they didn't know they needed) to people, after over 10 years at that kind of a job.

I'm however not very good with 'practical stuff', ie I'm not the guy you should ask to fix anything mechanical or electronic etc that doesn't work, install equipment etc..

I've always been told by teachers, friends, and family that I had a talent for writing. I'm pretty awful at everything though that doesn't have to do with the things I'm interested in such as history, sociology, political philosophy, etc.

People say I'm a good writer (whether or not I believe them), but other than that, I can't think of anything off the top of my head. As for things I'm bad at, it could take up pages. Social situations would be the worst, I think.

Good
I'm a pretty good problem solver, and people listen to me in critical situations. Also apparently, people think that I pick them up pretty well. Also I've gotten a lot better at basketball since I started playing.

Bad
No one listens to me if someone else has an idea though. I'm bad at focusing. I'm bad at getting people's attention (mainly because I start with sorry). I have pretty bad coordination. I'm bad at gauging people's views on me.

I'm good at drawing portraits from photographs that actually resemble the person I'm trying to draw. I'm also quite logically-minded so I'm good at maths and science because I seem to be able to pick things up and understand them quite quickly.

I'm not very good in social situations, I just feel awkward the whole time. I'm also not really that good at staying organised. I'm pretty useless at most sports too.

Good at making people laugh (few friends I have reffered tome as 'the funny guy' or funniest guy I know').
Bad at friendships and social situations in general...hence my 'few friends I have' qualifier.

Pretty good at playing string instruments, especially bass guitar. including reading music in 3 clefs, improvising, playing by ear etc. Writing... sort of. I haven't been able to lately. Reading and picking up useless facts.

I'm really bad at acting like a normal human being.

I am good at writing and playing music.
I am very good at writing essays and that sort of thing.
I am good at finding and hooking people up with drugs.
But most of all, I am good at sleeping.

When I was younger I had acting classes, which made me great at speaking to a large audience. I am good at solving problems, when there is a problem with an electronic object I can fix it without problem. And because of revleft I have become really good at debate. And, to top it all, I like animals!
I am quiet, and I can easily sneak up on someone, which is also a bad thing, because that means people don't notice me easily.
More bad stuff is that I am not good at sports, I do not like to do mathematics, and I urinate often.

I'm linguistically verbose to the point of vexation. I think I have a good memory (sometimes too good for my liking). Thanks to that and joining a debate team, I've vastly improved in debating. I also know a lot of pointless trivia---the kind of crap you'd be asked in Trivial Pursuit. I'm also much more outgoing than I used to be. Lastly, I somehow seem to excel at self-denial. If I have work to do I manage to put off sleep, meals, and games and just study/write for hours on end until I'm done.

As for bad stuff...I'll stick with the major stuff. I can be more emotional than I'd like to be (especially more anxious). I'm awful at math (and I mean awful---I barely got through summer school math one year). I don't make or keep friends easily, and I can be kind of high maintenance.

I have a knack for making blind, constipated chickens feel free of the stress of the BM. It's bad enough that they got to be led to the latrine and have me watch them(Their blind what do they know). Not knowing what kind of sick jbeard mayhem can ensue next. That's enough for constipation right there.:tt2:

i think im funny, a good writer, and pretty good at explaining abstract theories to laymen. i've heard that i am "charismatic" from multiple sources not sure if i believe it. if that's the case i need to find a way to con people into worshipping me and giving me their paycheck. people surrounding me say i am really smart, but i think i only have strange hobbies. i'm pretty good at taking out the gist/kernel of the issue at hand but horrible at detail handling. my mom thinks i'm handsome and that someday i will be president

I'm good with maths and engineering and apparently good at providing counsel to people on emotional things which is weird because I am the least emotional person I have ever seen.

As for bad, I'm complete shit at writing anything that's not a technical report. Even those are iffy.

Was pretty good on the piano for quite a few years. I can sing/guitar a bit too.

I am quite flexible when it comes to sport, though i'm not outstanding at any one sport, I play variously football, squash, cricket and currently am doing some Judo.

I'm excellent at making useless puns, too.

good at acting, psychology, understanding people even from the "hi" they tell me.

bad at maths if someone doesn't show me the right way to think, bad at relationships, bad temper and finally bad at controling my anxiety

Making out. Or so someone said. Quite possibly one of the nicest things I've ever been told.

I'm really good at being idle. I've also been told in the past that I am the "perfect stoner" - I take that very much as a compliment.

I used to be great at sprinting before I got out of shape. Judging from my current studies, I'm also alright at the sciences as well.

Commitment to things is my achilles' heel, however.

I am really good at getting out of trouble through the universal art of bullshitting.

Many people think i am funny with the unfortunate side effect of not being taken seriously as often as i would like.

I also hear i am a good listener and someone people like to talk with.
