Useless talents that you have?

Over the years, I've a habit of predicting things that might happen and most of the time they would turn out to be correct. I've always used it for minor things like how I'd know if something might fall, break or otherwise to give an example. It's a useless talent I don't think much on honestly.
 
I pick up different types of video games really fast and am usually really good at them! I guess this means I have good hand eye coordination or something, which is pretty useless to me in real life since I don't play those types of sports (the only sport I do is figure skate/dance) and I don't work with my hands.
 
I can do a pretty good impression of Paimon from Genshin Impact and a monkey. I can do the taco tongue and roll my Rs. I've also memorized the entire keyboard and have a typing speed of 90-100 wpm. I can solve a Rubik's cube in around a minute.

I can 'teleport'. I could be walking with someone and if they blink I'm gone or on their other side without them realizing

Crack multiple joints on my body. Toes, ankles, right knee, hip socket, back, shoulders, elbows, wrists, fingers, knuckles and bend my fingertips sideways slightly

I am a naturally fast walker

I can 'stand' on my ankles and I'm fine when I roll my ankles, it doesn't hurt. Prob cause I bend my ankles like that when I'm tired of standing on my feet, to give them a break.

Idk what it's called, but I can temporarily make sounds lessen with my ears. It feels like I'm moving my jaw near the bottom of my ears and loud sounds won't be as loud. People have described it as a 'roaring sound' but to me it doesn't really sound like a roar. It's more like an odd ringing noise.
 
I know way too much useless information on both Pokemon and Fire Emblem. Be it characters, game mechanics or random obscure things about either series. I can just go on and on about them without even trying.

For example my boyfriend will be playing Pokemon Go and will describe a Pokemon he sees and I always know what it is including the gen it's from, typing and random facts without even seeing the screen.

For Fire Emblem I know a crazy amount about the various mechanics in almost every game including the Japanese only ones. Also similar with Pokemon I can be shown very little for just about any character and I'll know who they are, what class they are, what weapons they are good at using etc.

This info constantly flows through my brain but its pretty useless. Oh well, at least I enjoy talking about these two series.
 
I can move each eye independently of each other, and crack any joint in my body. Go ahead, name one and I can crack it. Femur/hip joint? Yup. Ankles? Toes? Wrists? Collarbone? Sternum? (Idk how...) Shoulders? Even my jaw? Yeah, this is probably not a good thing...
I can also beatbox very well and play instruments by just listening to it a bit. I used to be able to read sheet music, but it's been too long..!
 
I have this weird talent of accidentally getting close to animals that are considered dangerous and/or hazardous; namely skunks and raccoons.

I've been within a few feet of numerous skunks and have not been sprayed. I've even been PUSHED towards one and its baby (love my sis, but that was a not cool moment from her lol). And I've been near a rabid raccoon once and it was just vibing as I backed away.

I'm also incredibly talented at rolling multiple 1s in a row on Mario Party.
 
I can sit in weird positions. A few people describe it as perching like a bird. It’s not uncomfortable for me one bit. I think it’s part of my insane flexibility?

1000% relatable.
 
By listening to its cry alone, I can tell you what Pokemon it is without having to look at the screen. I amazed my spouse's brother by doing this. Then there are tricky ones such as Charizard/Rhyhorn, Poliwag/Ditto, and anything after Gen 5 lol because cries all started to somewhat sound the same, with a few exceptions.

The incredible talent of dumb puns/obscure references/useless random trivia on the fly.

The uncanny ability of predicting exactly when a foe will land that magic, decisive crit on my Pokemon in battle. 9/10 times I'm right.

Tightrope walking. I dunno when I'm ever gonna need that now.

Yeah same, I think from years of gymnastics in my case though - are you double jointed by any chance?

Yeah, lol, more so than most people. I like it, though. I like doing weird things with my hands and grossing people out. 🙃

I can crack almost all my joints!! Some aren't on command, like my hip. I have to wait for it to get stiff and then turn my leg slightly to the outside of my body and it cracks. If I keep my knees in the same position for a while and straighten/bend them they crack. My left shoulder can crack if I do this thing where I push my shoulder into my collarbone/neck area (not with my hand, but with the shoulder muscles), I don't think that's normal though.
 
I can guess the name of any Dick Van **** Show episode by just watching the first thirty seconds or so! Usually, I can tell you what season it is from as well.
 
If I rub my knuckles on my nose from pinky to index finger it makes a funny noise. I found out that it doesn't happen to everyone until one day my nose wouldn't stop itching so I did that out of annoyance. My friend gave me the weirdest look ever and started belly laughing at me and I was like, wut?
