what’s your secret talent?

[Xeleron]

My visual perception relating to measurement is actually pretty accurate. If you were to draw a line and asked me what it measured, my margin of error would be very minimal... not a very useful skill, but it has come in handy from time to time.

 

[Misha]

I have a very good sense of smell and taste, but it tends to be more a curse than a blessing though.

 

[Damniel]

im double jointed which is useful in a few areas

 

[DeltaLoraine]

This one is probably dumb and not a talent, but I'm good at guessing words people are trying to say but can't think of or process in the moment I help finish a lot of sentences and help people put their emotions into words/metaphors that make them feel heard and understood.

i’m really good at typing quickly - i used to be a whiz on typing on a computer’s keyboard but since growing my nails out and using my phone instead of desktops, i’ve gotten a lil rusty with computer typing but i’ve gotten very fast with typing on my phone

 

[SmoochsPLH]

I too can touch my nose with my tongue. I can also blur my vision on command without crossing my eyes. Idk how it works lol

 

[seularin]

i can cry on command - almost instantly which is weird bc im not emotional lmao

i can touch my elbow and nose with my tongue cx

 

[DinosaurDumpster]

it was art but then i looked back on art from a year ago. just aint feeling it anymore...

 

[UglyMonsterFace]

I'm very good at being a couch potato. Not to brag but, if there was an Olympic medal to win for being a couch potato? I probably wouldn't win because I wouldn't get off my own couch to go to the Olympics to compete. That's how good I am.

I have extremely sensitive hearing. Even the smallest murmur can be picked up. While my hearing makes crowded areas overwhelming, it makes me fully aware of my surroundings.

I don't know if you've ever watched violet evergarden (you should), but it sounds like you would be a great auto memory doll

For my talent, I'm not even sure if you could class this as one, but I can like smell whenever food is ready? Idk if it's just because I'm always hungry lmao, but even with blaring music in my headphones and my door and the kitchen door fully closed, I'll just have like a spider sense that tells me when dinner/lunch is ready. Like my mom doesn't even call me anymore because I just kind of know when to come down myself.

 

[AppleBitterCrumble]

i can turn both my thumbs 180 degrees so they look backwards

 

[Lightspring]

I have perfect pitch

Same here!

 

[*The Oakboro Mayor*]

I can pick up a skill and be good at it with very little practice. Take art for example, I started in January and I think I’m pretty good! Running is also an example of this. I can also shake my eyes on command, although when I get worked up or nervous the shake on their own.

Wait wait wait I can blur my vision without crossing my eyes as well, I've tried explaining it to people but they don't get it... it's especially helpful when watching horror movies lol

Yeah I can also do this, and I believe that's just your eyes accommodating. Your eyes usually do that automatically when looking at further away objects/things very close to your eyes (e.g. reading), and you're just doing it manually by forcing the muscle to tense up or relax. Some people can't do it as much, as your eyes naturally start to lose the ability to accommodate as you get older, hence why many more older people wear glasses compared to younger people, and different prescriptions are needed for different working distances. Sorry for the wall of text, i'm just obsessed with studying eyes ;-;

No need to apologize! Super informative, TY!! It kinda gives me a starting point to do my own research. It makes sense that I'm tensing up my muscles, because that's kinda what it feels like now that I think about it. Maybe it's something most people are capable of doing but they just never tried

 

[DarkDesertFox]

Close your eyes... tighter... I SAID TIGHTER. Good. Now reach into your pocket. Your wallet is gone, yes? Excellent. I too am gone. My talent is thievery magician work.

 

[SpaceTokki77]

I can chug a bottle of water in 6 seconds

 

[hamster]

i can pitch up my voice high enough to sound like alvin and the chipmunks
