Ok, I had this idea for a thread, but I wasn't sure I wanted to start it, because I didn't know if I wanted to disclose what made me think of it. However, a post I just read by Zeno39 in the Games section, made me go with it.

Everybody has something that they can do really well...be it a good thing or not. So, I thought why doesn't everyone share what one thing they can do really well...and it doesn't have to be nice or polite, because mine sure isn't.

My greatest talent is, I can burp like no other. DH thinks it's hysterical, and knows for a fact I burp better than any man he's ever heard. Mind you, I don't do this in public! But sometimes, you've just gotta let it rip...and boy I sound like a monster being exorcised sometimes.

So, what's your talent?

Bandit, I can appreciate your talent and would like to hear you go one-on-one with my younger sister, who burns your hair off, makes you look like that guy in the (Pioneer?) speaker ads and blows the dregs of her belch into your face when she's done. All you can do when she's done belching is cry, it's like being caught on Mount St. Helens after the unpredicted side-blast. If you managed to live, you're covered in soot, wandering in a moonscape and wondering what the eff just happened. Even her dogs run barking hellishly and looking for cover when they see her with a carbonated beverage in her hand. If you can beat that, girl, you are my hero and I'll pay for your ticket to the showdown.

As for me, my special talent is keeping a nickel between my knees. Early training from my Grandma, truly a lost art.

My special talent is to look like I am working when I am really messing around on TVCH.

I can crack all the knuckles on my hand by closing my hand into a ball. It happens every time.

I sneeze every time I go outside on a sunny day.

I can also twirl a baton..LOL

Lol....oh boy. this thread is going to turn into a doozey...

Twiggys reminded me of my ability to sneeze exactly two times after every single time I take any type of liquid cold medicine.

I can also gleek unwillingly

by the way "gleek" definition given by the geeks on the net...

"building up saliva in the salivary glands using some stimulus, like sour food or yawning, and then pressing the tongue upon the glands, causing the saliva to shoot out, usually at an impressive distance"

for anyone who did not know....

Ummmm???? What's gleek? It's sounds ....a little...ummmmm....what's gleek?

Ok - I sit on my ass with my legs straight out and whip the rope like a lasoo(sp) underneath me and do a whole body jump thing.

Bandit....try it, it's pretty hard. I discovered my talent (lmbo) about 18 years ago, and let me tell you, it's mighty hard to do it now.

Any of you with young kids get them to try it. I never found anyone else that could do it but it's much easier when you are younger.

I sent my old roommate one of those emails where you fill out the survey, and one of the questions is "Say something you love about the person who sent this to you." So he wrote: She has farts that are so high pitched, only dogs can hear them, yet her burps will break glass.

I think my talent is that I can argue any side, and switch sides mid-conversation, to piss off my friends.

I also have an UNCANNY ability to find something rude to say about anything. You hear a lot of "Kali, only YOU could turn that into...." when I'm around.

I can unlock my jaw. And fit my fist in my mouth. I don't show that off too much though. LOL

I can wiggle my ears?

(I think we should start a counter-thread, that is about things we just plain will NEVER be able to do. I couldn't dance if my life depended on it.)

I, too, can wiggle my ears.

My wife says I'm a gas factory and the best there is.

I can do a Tornado kick, jump spin twirl kick, flying side kick and break two boards.

I'm pretty good at sleeping and I used to think I could write pretty good poetry, but now that my life is no longer so dark and bleak...that talent has seemed to escape me.

I'm pretty good at rigging stuff up to make it work right.

When I'm on a mission, nothing else matters until my mission is completed and I've exhausted all resources.

and I'm pretty good in bed...

My dh is a world-class snorer, does that count? You can hear him all over the apt when he's asleep - there is no place to hide. LOL. I have to put the tv on in the living room and try to sleep on the couch to drown him out.
