Hi Pandas, what random skills do you have, but no longer need?
I can marshal aircraft (worked with tiny planes all the way up to 747), but I don't work in aviation any more.
This post may include affiliate links.
I can do formal logic, but since nothing makes sense in this world, I rarely need it.
I find doing formal "chaos" is far more appropriate for the 21st Century......and still NO "flying cars"!
I've been saying that since the 80's! Back in the golden age of cinema there were all of these great dystopian sci-fi movies set in the "future" (ie, 1980's) and there were flying cars! Where the heck are they???
Load More Replies...Yo same, I learned it a couple years ago, I've never used it in real life though except as a joke or something
Yes, sadly useless, but wouldn't it be useful to identify illogic? Seems to be plenty around.
I have really good memory for random facts or anecdotes. Want to know the code names of all operations of WW2? Got them. Name of the lookout that spotted the iceberg on the Titanic? Know it. Number of cannons aboard HMS Victory at the Battle of Trafalgar? Yep. Mozart's stage directions for Don Giovanni? Sure. But... What's the name of the coworker I have known for almost a year or where did I leave my keys? No clue...
Wow that is very very useful you got a good memory. I have a good memory of what has happened through most of my childhood and ect. People are aways like I don't remember that
I can recognize any song from listening to it for a few seconds and remember all the lyrics in one listen. It’s pretty dumb but its good for one person karaoke at 2am.
Try out for game shows. There is a new one that the winner gets 1 million dollars. All based on remembering lyrics.
On the opposite side, I can play piano, keyboard, drums, you name it. I can't remember lyrics to save my life.
OMG, I have this too. I don''t own any music because I can play any song I want in my mind any time I want to hear it. It's like a savant talent.
I can do this too, and remember all the lyrics from songs I haven't heard in years
Oh me too! But when I hear the song on the radio I just can't believe that the singer got the lyrics all wrong.../just kidding!
Well I can name band right when the music is playing sometimes before they sing
Yes i can do this as well, i can tell what song or band/music artist is playing in a matter of seconds and if the beginning of the song is silent i can tell what song it is by the number of seconds its silent.
Load More Replies...I do not, but I’ll look into them! Let’s make a deal, I will try out youth by daughter and lovejoy if you try out the Gorillaz.
Load More Replies...Random question (and not being rude), are you perhaps left handed?
I’m ambidextrous :) and this isn’t rude!
Load More Replies...My question is did Tim McGraw do Taylor Swift or did Taylor Swift do Tim McGraw?
Load More Replies...I can make a duck call and tap dance, not necessarily separately.
I can put my foot behind my head, and make a Donald duck impression
I can do the Donald Duck thing too, although I do find it useful with my elementary school students.
My uncle's name is Donald, and when we were kids, he would do a Donald Duck impression a lot!
Indeed i can my dear friend :D
Load More Replies...i know 4 languages, but majority of time using only English... sometimes another one but that's that :( my grandpa used to know 5, but due to not having anyone to talk to - he forgot. Afraid same will happen to me after years.
find volunteer work with elderly or people who want to speak their language.
as well I know some songs in 10 different languages (some without understanding, just learned by heart) 😂😂😂 who the heck needs these skills... i don't know 😂 singing in the car for my own entertainment :D hope my future kids will be entertained
I can snap with my toes. I don't know how, but we're talking a full on snapping noise.
Kinda cool actually. Like if you got kidnapped and can't scream and your hands are tied up, but your toes are free.
I just tried and I kind of just ended up popping my toe super bad so maybe I'll just let you have that skill
Decades ago I knew a black pug named Pearl. She had the sassiest little walk I’ve ever seen: she was like “I’m Pearl, I’m a pug, I’m Pearl, I’m a pug, I’m Pearl, I’m a pug” on an infinite loop!
Load More Replies...I can snap my ankle same noise it because I broke my ankle once an something didn't grow back an I very flexible with that ankle now and I think the bone rubs against another bone
I can flare/ wiggle my nostrils at will. Besides an occasional "Hey guess what I can do" moment it has no use.
My mom can do it (dad and sister can't) so maybe it hereditary.... can anyone else in your family flare their nostrils?
Load More Replies...Me and my two sons can do it too, we were comparing the same last night and this morning i read this 😁
Not me, my husband. He can waggle both eyebrows separately. Total wave action. Our kids are very jealous.
The baldness gene is passed down the mother's line. If you go bald and your father was bald, it is mere coincidence.
Load More Replies...Due to a past life where I wanted to be a star of the theater, I can sing about 25 different Broadway musicals start to finish from memory. I am not in the theater. I do have the nerdy reputation for having a song for every situation though. Not to mention, my 5 year old thinks I am an improvisational queen!
Your five-year-old seems to have a lot of insight for such a youngster…out of the mouth of babes, I suppose!
The ability to fall asleep at work without anyone noticing.
VERY useful for long boring lectures at Uni....but you need a friend to tape the lecture....been there,done that...
I'm very creative with snarky sarcasm. No longer need it because I pi$$ed off all my friends and family with it. Oops
“I love sarcasm. It’s like punching people in the face but with words.”...!
We should form a club. It’s hard to find people who’re smart enough to recognize good sarcasm.
I find them also.....dry them and paste them on cards I send my friends ....
Load More Replies...All the math I learned in highschool. I've never come across a problem in life where I was like "You know what I need? Trigonometry!"
You stand in one corner of a field, which way is fastest, going around it or across it?
I want to take algebra again; I have a strange feeling it might help me with my memory issues by giving me something to focus on. As it is now, my days are pretty dang random!
rifle iron sights shooting. i'm pretty gifted at that. but as i'm vegan it's actually totally useless
Yeah or whatsitcalled ... clay pigeons disc thingy... HELP.
Load More Replies...when my son was about 9 he came running in 'cause he shot a bird with his bb gun. he said it was just flying over and he shot him. he had no idea how hard that is. then he cried 'cause he killed a bird.
Load More Replies...Cool, so you can shoot all those animals who keep eating your grass? (/s)
I served in the US Marines..I can put one helluva spit shine on a pair of combat boots.
I got pretty good at that in the Army, but then they switched to those tan suede boots for the desert and that skill quickly became obsolete...
I have hypervigilance causing my brain to listen to every conversation in the room unwillingly.
I tend to subconsciously count things such as dealing cards, etc. Only handy when dealer loses track AND believes me.
Me too! I thought I was the only one ( or going crazy) Huh, I guess it’s a thing.
Load More Replies...I can roll up hills. You know how you get into a "mummy" position and roll down a hill, usually angling off to the side a little? One day, for whatever reason, I decided to see if I could roll uphill. To my surprise (and everyone else's), I could. It's easier than it sounds.
I'm very flexible especially my fingers but it's not very useful in daily life. Just a fun party trick.
Yep, I'm hyper mobile and bend the tip of all my fingers. Also crack my knees when I squat. I don't really like cause it causes other health issues.
Same here. I have Classic Ehlers-danlos and everything grinds and cracks. "Being bendy" used to be fun when I was little, till I couldn't walk anymore. Gentle hugs to you.
Load More Replies...Can suck my lip so far back in my face you can see bone structures
Sometimes I do it wrong and I make micro cuts in mouth causes swelling in small areas inside of my mouth
Load More Replies...I can write upside down, and backwards, in cursive.
I can clap with one hand. The sound of one hand clapping is clapping not silence. Sometimes people who think they are clever need to be one upped.
That's the title on a danish movie. "At klappe med een hånd"/"Clapping with one hand" https://danskefilm.dk/film.php?id=697
The ability to make myself nauseous. I earned this skill when I was deep in my ed. really don’t need it now but I can’t get rid of it :(
Oh I can do this because I through up a lot only reason it kinda sucks because when I have to throw up there is hardly anytime to get to my destination I just have to know how my belly feels and than that it
I can p**s off a lot. of people online by having a different point of view or opinion. Don't know how I got it, just developed it.
I get that a lot, and accused of having xxxphobia(s) when my opinion doesn't match theirs!
I can do a full range of very realistic cat vocalizations.
I can speak and sound like a demon. Can do it when I have laryngitis too. No longer babysitting for the spawn of Satan, so I don't need to make them feel comfortable
I would probably pay good money to hear you purr. I...I like cats. A LOT! 😄 So a human cat would be... say what??
I can tie a cherry stalk into a knot in my mouth
I have one from my 21st birthday - I did 2 knots. No idea how, I was very drunk
Got to try for 2 knots now. If I fail I will blame the alcohol
Load More Replies...My kid can do that, but no one else in the family can do it. I wonder who's kid they really are?
I learned to manually space letters for signs, posters and such. Then computers took over...
I can remember the most uncommon and obscure movie quotes. Even movies I haven't seen in years. Ill be having a conversation with someone, they'll say something, that triggers my movie roledex, pulls out movie x, and I quote a line from that movie. Happens in an instant. People are amazed sometimes but is it "useful?" Nahhh bruhhh.
I do the same. Though it makes it feel like the people in the world have nothing original to converse about and that every conversation is a cyclical routine having no substance. Geez... we are living in the matrix aren't we.
My wife has a similar skill with faces of actors. If she cannot recall their names, she'll remember whatever else they've been in. It's pretty eerie sometimes...
I have perfect pitch, but it is nearly useless.
I have a friend with perfect pitch. He can play almost any instrument, has built his own,guitars, ukuleles, violins, and other instruments, writes his own musics, etc. I just went to get the URL to his website and discovered that he had a stroke. Life sucks.
What's the website? If it's not too personal.
Load More Replies...It's not useless, I have it too and play guitar, saxophone, piano and others by ear.
No it is not! Why don't you sing in a chorus or play in a band. Very useful there.
I can train cats - to come on call, walk through an obstruction course, high five, wave, ride a skateboard etc., - but since I've had my spleen removed I'm in danger of getting seriously ill if I get bitten or scratched by an animal.
I can bark like a dog. Like really well. It causes the dogs in the vicinity to start barking. Only useful for a lot of noise
Procrastination. I g t so good at it by not doing anything else.
Procrastination is like masturbation: fun while you are doing it, but in the end you are just screwing yourself.
With BP taking on such a Victorian attitude towards words these days, I’m surprised that the fourth word in your sentence passed muster!
Load More Replies...I can whistle with my mouth open. Because I can whistle like that, I can do a perfect cricket impression... I just vibrate my lips and it sounds exactly like a cricket. Yup it's useless.
if I know anyone's name, even years later I can still remember their name
My dad is like that too and he remembers birthays just the same.
I can program in BASIC on punch cards OR paper tape!
I used to work in DOS. It was so long ago (of course…thanks, Bill Gates!) that I no longer remember it, but I do know that if I *could* remember it, I’d love it all over again. There was real beauty in it. That said, Excel has it all over whatever it supplanted—I no longer even remember what it was. I totally ♥️ Excel!
Load More Replies...Crossing my eyes😁
I can weld razor blades together edge to edge. I learned that after welding together soda cans got to easy. I weld every day for work but I do structural welding and lift fixtures.
Well, maybe not the cans and razor blades, but a talent nonetheless. 😎
Load More Replies...Not a skill but I can win Uno everytime. I have great intuition.
I have relative pitch, and it does come in handy sometimes during orchestra and violin lessons, but literally any other time it's completely useless
i can bring my left elbow to the right side of my head behind my back and vice versa. this only has use in shocking and disgusting people. one guy legit turned away and gagged immediately. everyone else jist froze and said " what the F**K"
What the flip does this look like (edit: I tried to do fr.ick instead of flip but BP censored it, what the actual heck)
I'm a credit counselor, but live on a fixed income, so that's useless. I know a lot of about chemical, nuclear, and biological weapons, but since I'm retired, no one calls on me for any information on that...
I can sing “Ten Green Bottles” in Latin! I’m a must at parties!
*accidentally mispronounces words while singing* Satan: you called?

Load More Replies...I can vibrate my eyeballs voluntarily. Like, not shake them. Literally VIBRATE my actual eyeballs. Google it if you don't believe me. I can also fold my thumb behind my hand.
I can do this. I freak out everyone, and my friend wants to teach him how. Idk how
Bruh same I've creeped out way too many people doing it
Load More Replies...An old friend could do that. Never failed to crack me up. I got in so much trouble, laughing hysterically at inappropriate times ( church, formal dinners)
Long division. Not useful at all, even though my math teacher always told me that i would need it.😭
I love basic arithmetic, and I’d like to learn algebra again—I remember really, really liking it in high school and I think it might help me switch my atrophying brain.
I can recite the alphabet backwards and I randomly diagram sentences for fun.
This is getting scary- I still diagram sentences too! When Sister Catherine taught you something in 1968, you damn sure learned it! I don’t think they even teach that any more.
I don't know what diagramming sentences is. Is it something to do with which verb goes with which noun?
I recognize actors/actresses voices if they were in Star Trek, even if it's one episode with full prosthetics.
I know fourteen different ways to hit you with a stick. Actually a honbo, from studying Ninjutsu, but still....
Nope. Highly useful skill, depending on time of day and where you live!
I can cuss in three languages, French, English, and German
I can operate one of those old-timey peg and wire switchboards that phone operators used about a thousand years ago. :-)
Oh my lord! Running the trunk line in 1975! I had to fill in for the operator during her break, and I loved it. Didn’t wanna do it for 8 hrs though, too stressful!
I'm obsessed with medical diagnostics, but I'm looking into careers in nursing. Hope I get to do something with that, though :)
Maybe you can help me. 3 doctors, and all kinds of tests, and 7 weeks laters later, oh and a weight loss of 30 lbs. and still no clue what's wrong. Yes, I needed to lose weight, but not this way, and I need to eat without getting sick everytime I even smell food. Now I am just waiting for the endoscopy and colonoscopy scheduling date. yay!
Maybe you could take it the next level and become a real life House MD...
I'm not even kidding, that was literally my dream job for a while, but I'm mostly just trying to maximize a four year degree. It's one of my favorite shows, and I'd get super excited when I was coming to the same conclusions as the doctors. My parents also did this thing where they'd describe symptoms of a disease and I'd guess what it was, and I was pretty good at that.
Load More Replies...i can see and count all of my ribs without breathing in. i’m 13
I can only draw Alastor from hazbin hotel
I mean, if you're only able to draw one thing, at least it's someone cool!
I can associate almost any word with song
I can do this but with Beatles songs! Also, any time I hear a rooster crow, "Good Morning Good Morning" automatically starts in my head.
I love making maps! I will pull up google maps or google earth and make a complex map. Sadly, there isn’t really jobs for mapmaking as most of the world is mapped already.
Stellar cartography. There is so much more outside of our world.
Hydrography. The coast and sea bottom constantly changes due to shipwrecks.
Spending money
I can make farting sounds with only my hands! In person, I'm also pretty decent at making people believe absolute rubbish
My master's degree. I've never worked a single day in my field.
Masters of Public Administration. It's not so bad though, I didn't go into debt for it (thanks GI Bill) and just having the masters (regardless of what it was in) has helped get a couple of good jobs and promotions.
Load More Replies...I can… Tell when people are lying (extremely easily) Do a good impression of Shrek Bend the tips of my thumbs backwards, not my force, they just bend that way Identify all my local birds and most common garden plants and trees
I can identify any movie just watching 10 seconds, also if you Humm a song to me I can pinpoint the movie and find the lirics with Google or Shazam (hyperfocus who?)
My ability to ignore pain longer than my siblings. They complain and I'm like "suck it up buttercup" even though I'm going through the same thing. I just tend to say "I've been through worse" and shrug it. Like one time I got stung by a bee in a pool and kept swimming the I noticed something was not right (like a pinching sore feeling) and so I went to the shallow end and the adult pointed out a stinger in my shoulder.
I knew someone who felt pain, knew it was painful, but didn't care. Like he felt it but didn't. Odd.
Yes, I feel all of it. Its just that I ignore it. I once sprained my ankle and just kept going. I felt every ounce of pain but I can ignore it for the most part .
Load More Replies...Give me three descriptive words, I'll create a character for it. Then I'll make a whole universe, storyline and other related characters to join them. reasonably useful for, say, an author, but I'm not an author. Also this one is genuinely useless, if someone gives me a number i can probably tell you what SCP has that exact number and give you a rundown of what they do. And if I can't I'll go look it up and I'll know everything about it next time somebody asks me.
DESCRIPTIVE words. Scared, bright, antidisestablishmentarianism
Load More Replies...I feel like your calling is calling you. You should answer. Don't discount this. It could end up being quite fulfilling for you and your readers. The written word has long been revolutionary.
I can bend my knee up to the point where if I bend it backwards far enough I can touch my armpit with my toes. Sounds gross but it's kinda cool to me lol
I'm a teen and I can over complicate things and work technology from the 60s-90s.
I can learn the basics of any instrument in about 2 hours but I never get a chance to use it):
Why not? Get a band together. You sound like a talented person. The world needs more music, dude. We need you!
If you give me any word, I can almost always burst into a song based on that word. I’ll prove it if you want. :)
I am wicked fast and can run 15 miles without stopping .never use except for pleasure
Can lay out a defensive position and call in artillery. Not much use for it hereabouts lately :P
I am amazing at remembering anything that goes to a melody, along with song title, and the artist’s name.
I am a caring person, considrate, hard-working and creative. I take a stand and have an opinion . Not wantend by employers.
Those people who have those traits are pure gold. However, many spelling errors in your question leads me to believe that you've been passed over because of THAT and not the other things you listed
I hear that. I once lost a job for pointing out that they weren't following their own rules about the safety of an automotive product. Nice eh?
I taught myself to juggle about thirty years ago. I can still do it when I'm steady enough on my feet to stand like that.
I have no life, so juggling isn't a necessity.
Load More Replies...Freaked out my boss. Had three bad limes. Lobbed them to me and said, "Toss these!" Grabbed each out of air and juggled. Expression was flabbergast. Totally worth it at time.
I'd have loved to see the look on his face.
Load More Replies...I have more control than everyone I have ever met over my face muscles, it has no use except impressing people sometimes
Why would other people have control over your face muscles? … oh, never mind, I see what you mean. 🤨
Sorry, I'm not native and still learning :)
Load More Replies...I can make a clover with my tounge.
I don't know if that's a skill, but I'm a very calm and nonjudgmental person. I always say only two things get on my nerves: if someone messes with my dogs or if someone cuts in front of me when I'm in line for a concert. I can listen to any story, doesn't matter how shocking, with the same blank face, probably the reason strangers feel at ease talking to me. I was the star intern and had great reviews at uni when I was studying to be a psychologist.
i can jump really high, which is only useful when my tall cousin is being irritating lol
With the power of toe grip I can open a door with my foot.
As can I. As well as pick up almost anything. I wonder if you too have very . . . Visibly pronounced foot features. Like you very clearly see tendons and stuff in your foot
I do at first I thought everyone did
Load More Replies...Cooking. I'm not really good, but I'm perfectly adequate. I've always hated it and pretty much avoid all but minor tasks.
I can lick my own elbow ...yeah
Wait, really? That's cool, and super rare! Fun party trick, at least...
I can remember really random details that will never be needed in a conversation or easy or anything really.
I do the same thing. Guess our usernames aren't our only similarity!
I'm double jointed in both my fingers and my toes, to the point where I can bend them back so far you can see the bones (idk if it's possible but I think that I almost dislocated all of my fingers and toes).
I can come up with dramatic and edgy monologues and quotes as well as describing a scene graphically.
No matter the brand or number of items, I will ALWAYS find the chocolate praline with the gooey pink filling. I hate that.
I can sing embarrassingly well but I'm self-conscious and cherish my anonymity. Even my fella doesn't know how well I can sing. I don't think I'll ever make money from it and I would never sing in public. I would shake with nerves but when I have free time, with the windows closed so the neighbours can't hear me, I go...to town!
Maybe you could sing on Youtube or something, you could share your voice while maintaining anonymity!
I took photography during my last semester in college, so now I can develop film and make photo prints. Problem is, I no longer have access to the campus darkroom, any of the materials, or chemicals. Shame too, seeing as I was apparently the stand out student and often used as the example for well made prints. Besides, in a world of digital photography, who's going to justify paying $10 for one roll of black and white film?
I can balance a glass half filled with liquid tilted on an angle on a dime.
Making angry responses. This is almost ended a few relationships. Getting better at restraining it though!
Crushing on a boy (often times actors) 2.8 seconds after I first see them. Help.
You guys are being so supportive but I still regret posting this XD
I’m really good at sneaking around for no reason and if you make me angry because you don’t believe me about something that I know is correct or wrong I will research it and write a full essay with all sources cited
Can imitate pig's grunts astonishingly realistic by inhaling through nose and vibrating my soft palate. Only came in handy once when teaching animal sounds to a 2 year old
How to load songs onto an iPod
I used to be a body piercing artist. Very useless skills outside of a shop.
I can burp on purpose.
I can read upside down. There are so few opportunities for this to come up in conversation. And people just aren’t that impressed, sigh
I can tie a cherry stem in a knot with my tongue.
I can blow free floating saliva bubbles off my tounge.
I can milk a cow. Not something I need to know since my parents sold the cows and retired 15 years ago. I can also do many other things usually done on farms. Kind of uneseccary as an accountant.
It is a nice skill to have and not as easy as it looks...and who knows...it might come in useful one day...
I can write in cursive upside down, backwards, left handed and read upside down with ease.
I live in Japan and can, most of the time, estimate the approximate epicentre and magnitude of earthquakes I feel.
That is useful...especially if you live in a high-rise building..
I have long toes that I can move like fingers and so I am able to use my feet as another pair of hands. Unfortunately, I am requited to wear shoes at work, and so it doesn't help me there. But this skill is very helpful when I am doing DIY projects at home. Have you ever been trying to do something and felt that you needed a third hand? I have a third and fourth.
I know the ABC. My pupils asked me, why they need to learn the order and I genuinely couldn't find an example. Damn you Google.
For alphabetizing your files. Granted paper files are not as common as they once were but they exist
My pupils will be more in handiman jobs.... And the odd one out will lern it. But for the majority it's unnecessary.
Load More Replies...I can make a clover with my tongue and move something in my arm to make weird noises (not sure what exactly or why, it just happens). Not useful at all, but they're neat tricks.
Common sense and a 3 digit IQ. It makes your life more difficult nowdays....
Only *occasionally* useful: I don't have a gag reflex and I can swallow with my mouth open...
I can type with one hand
That’s not how that works I am unable to type with two because a have a brain disorder that makes it where my left side of my body doesn’t work right. I type 76 wpm

I can open a door with my feet.
Same. I can also grab a pen, write, etc etc. basically im a human monke
I can remember the last line of almost every book I read.
I can meow like a cat, bark like a puppy, and bark like a dog. All very realistic. Once I meowed at lunch and everybody thought there was a cat inside. I can also do cloverleaf tongue, bend one section of my middle finger, and put my fingers one after the other in both ways. All of these are useless but they are pretty cool to me!
I can look at any nut or bolt and know the exact mm socket I need. It’s a skill I’ve had most of my life but I didn’t work with cars until a few years back when I started vinyl work so I don’t know where I picked it up. It’s not a completely useless skill but it isn’t really useful either. Lol. And I can wiggle my nose. Maybe I should be the Easter bunny for kids. :) that would be somethin. Bipolar Easter bunny? Yes please! Otherwise the nose wiggle is just here to weird out the dog and cats!
I can come up with terrible, groan-inducing, dad-level puns basically on the spot. My friends are all sick of them so I've been asked not to do it anymore, but maybe I could have a career writing kids' joke books or punny valentine cards.
I remember addresses very easily and can give the address of every place I stayed plus all my friends current and past addresses. I also remember the layout of houses and buildings years after. So I can walk into a place I have not been to in years and instantly know where everything is. Don't ask me to remember names of people though or recognise people, that I am hopeless at.
I can recognize a movie I've seen just by hearing a few seconds of music, or dialogue. Annoys my sister because I still like to confirm it, and she has said, "if you know what it is why are you asking?!"
I can sing (cluck?) any song like I'm a chicken. Not that this is really a SKILL because I'm sure it's something anyone can do. WHY someone would want to do it is a whole 'nother question! But it's something I find MYSELF doing almost unconsciously, especially when the song fits the style. (The theme song to Star Trek is a perfect example of a song that fits the style! LOL!) I can also tie a cherry stem in a knot with my tongue! Neither of these are useful in any way!
I can knit a scarf in a day.
I can clean and sterilize surgical instruments. I was a processing technician for 5 years and know hundreds of surgical instruments and their proper methods of cleaning and sterilization, but I don't do that anymore so it's just a bunch of useless information hanging out in my brain. It's not often I get to explain the proper use of glutaraldehyde..
double jointed, and can bend my arms in the wrong direction. useless, but can freak people out.
My battle with Breast cancer started 4 years ago, after so many Chemo, Radiation and other natural therapy treatments that I took just to cure my Breast cancer, it all did not work for my condition. I was treating this disease for almost 4 year, I was cured with World Rehabilitate Clinic formula. This is medication that totally kills cancer cells. They also have a cure for hysterectomy issues, Alzheimer's Disease and more other chronic diseases. Contact ( worldrehabilitateclinic.com or WhatsApp +17278553511.
Former combat engineer & armorer, USMC. 30 minutes in Home Depot then a couple of hours at home in my shop, and I can walk out with a couple of functioning 12 guage boom sticks and enough exolosives and associated pyrotechnics to take out my cul-de-sac.
Probably going to be a useful skill in a post apocalyptic world. Could be sooner than later.
That is useful for that Karen on the Corner. Still serving, and military personnel have a dark sense of humor. Just stating that before someone calls the FBI on the trigger happy gun nuts 🙃
I can name the General for Carthage during the Punic Wars.
everything from P.E, also microsoft access, science of sports equipment, drama class, religious education social studies, we mostly did trust games we used to learn humanities but they stopped teaching us that after a year, i cant even remember what that subject even is and geography was useless too, all the teacher wanted us to learn about was Zimbabwe because she liked the place
I got my Masters in Clinical Social Work, with a 4.0 average, a few years ago. I was in my early 60's, and not one agency within 4 states, would even give me a job interview. They all required me to reveal when I got my first college degree and that 1970's date sent my app straight to the black hole. There is a desperate need for therapists in this country but age discrimination is much stronger than the public interest. Many older adults are in a similar position and their years of skills are being wasted due to stereotyping and other factors. There is almost no enforceable legal remedy for this form of discrimination.
Thank the stars for out reps and senators. Our county is getting a brand new 9 bed mental health facility for young people. Sounds like it's going to be Beautiful and much needed.
I’m ambidextrous, which in itself can be sorta useful: It doesn’t matter whether the mouse is or left or right side of the keyboard for example, and back when I worked as a teacher kids found it funny that I started writing with my left hand and continued with the right on the chalkboard. Anyway, as the world is mainly set up for right-handed people, I quietly pretend being one myself, as well.
That must have been funny indeed, finishing your sentences with the other hand.
In Monster’s Inc. Boo would always say “Mike Wazowski” in her toddler voice and I can do the impression perfectly.
I can turn my eyelids inside out- freaks the hell out anyone who asks to see it, but it's never used in life!
I developed a system for writing coded messages with a friend of mine when we were 10. Still remember how it works, so I could write messages no one else understands. Not really useful
I can make this weird honking noise that others can't seem to mimic. I can also touch my elbows behind my back, and drop my ear to my shoulder.
Honesty. Unfortunately lying works better and I never learned how to do it convincingly.
I can hold almost $10 worth of quarters in my collarbone indents (supraclavicular fossa) and walk around without dropping any but it gets uncomfortable with the tensing needed to hold them all.
i can play drums. like, very good, after listening to any song. AC/DC and Nirvana is the best to play drums to. (sorry if dissapoiting) [sorry for my spelling too]
Not knowing or explaining the reason why we need to know ABC order? Seriously? How about the library or Barnes & Noble, where books are kept in ABC order by author's name? Working in the medical field where patient charts are organized in ABC order. Filing papers in just about any office. Yes, we are going paper free these days, but all my client files are computerized and sorted by name. So still a necessary skill, not useless!
I can belly dance. I use to BD when my colleagues and I were in a stressful time at work. They would start clapping and laughing and just go back to work with a lighter heart. It took less than 5 minutes and my job was done. I'm going to add that I have a really keen sense of smell. When my brother's GF mixed up all his herb garden after they dried, he called me over so I could undo the chaos in his kitchen: thyme, oregano, etc. She was shocked "you're just gonna go with what she says???" Yep he did. (her and I don't really like each other...).
