discussion What’s a Completely Useless Skill You’re Weirdly Proud Of?

[User_183493]

Okay, hear me out, we all have that one skill that’s totally useless in real life but for some reason, we’ve mastered it like it’s an Olympic sport.
For example, I can flawlessly guess the exact time without looking at a clock. Not like… close. I mean on the dot. Totally useless but weirdly satisfying.
A friend of mine can recite the entire script of Shrek from memory. Again, no real-life application. But if there's ever a "Shrek Off" championship? He's winning.
What about you? What’s your weird flex that has no value but makes you feel like a boss anyway?
Let’s hear 'em. The more ridiculous, the better.

I'm pretty accurate at pointing north, like I have a natural compass built in, and if I'm ever unsure I can navigate by stars to double check. (Learned the stars thing in college and have only ever needed it when playing dayz)

Oh, that't cool!

I have disgustingly strong muscles and a firm grip in both of my midfingers (really all of my fingers, but those in particular). Since I am kind of on the weak side in my arms, I offer people a chance to "finger-wrestle" when I lose at arm-wrestling. Those who know me often turn me down then, because the hook in those fingers of mine can tighten up to the point where I could potentially break my opponent's if I put on more pressure than necessary. They are like the claws of a predatory bird.

Other than that, they are very good for flipping people off.

A useless, but otherwise pretty funny talent. Hopefully it will save mine or someone else's lives one day. That'd make up for it.

Bet. What time is it right now? No looking at the clock!

Random facts and useless information i am able to recall like a MF

I can repeat this faster and faster without making a single mistake:
"I'm not the pheasant plucker, I'm the pheasant plucker's son and I'm only plucking pheasants till the pheasant plucker's comes."

I can find every video about sexual situations
A porn video removed because of dmca infringement, an old porn video, an old movie with content that now are prohibited, an amatorial video, a borderline video and sometimes it was a video across the border.
If the video is on the vast web, I will find it.
I have always found what i wanted, for myself and my friends
But in recent years the situation changed a lot, so i stopped to go cross the line. It wasn't a real interest, it was just curiosity, it's not worth it

I can spot something 18+ without even knowing what it is or who the creator is, I guess. I think I've gotten used to the art styles.

Even though I've never trained, my body is naturally flexible. I can almost do the splits, and for those who can do it, they know it's ridiculous to do it without training.

Argue about anything, until people give up because of his stupid illogical arguments. Yes, he thinks that he is right.
