Weirdest thing(s) about you that's actually really awesome?

[lady amarant]

My feet are really dextrous - I've used them as a second pair of hands since I was small. It's awesome in the kitchen when you need to open cupboards and ovens and stuff!

Not physical so much as mental, but I can BS almost anything and make it look like I spent weeks on it. I've turned in 10-page essays that I wrote the night before and my professors could never tell--in fact, I rarely scored below an A.

On the other hand, if I take too long on a project, I tend to lose interest and the whole thing goes to hell. XD

I'm exactly the same

If I barely try I do awesome, if I plan stuff out it all goes to pot

That sounds about right. Wonder if it's a TS thing.

If I study ahead of time for an exam I do crap. If I get up early the morning of the exam and study then, HELL, I rock.

I'm like that too. Only mine is more geared to BSing to make things sound good when I have no clue what the assignment was even about. Always works.

[Alyx.]

I shoot lasers out of my eeeeeyyyeeeesssss...

Okay, not really... Uh...

Objects move around me sometimes, and fire flares up when I'm around sometimes.

[tekla]

I can confuse anyone, at any time.  It's an awesome superpower.  Like a jedi mind trick, but more long lasting (if you confuse someone really well you can keep them in that state for a long time).

I also lurk very well.

~Simone.

Same here. I've got long, dexteritous toes. My siblings get mad when I open doors with my feet cause of them being on the floor and germs and stuff, so they're afraid to touch handles. Wusses.

I'm sure I have more interesting weird things about myself but I can't think of any at the moment. *shrugs*

[TamTam]

My toes are also really dextrous. I'm teaching myself to write with them, and I can move my pinky toes independently.  I can also wiggle my ears, together and one at a time.

[Kaitlyn]

Ditto with the toes & feet.  I'll use 'em for everything from opening cabinets to flushing the toilet in public restrooms.

Also, I'm invisible.  Not only do I move really quietly and speak very softly, but most people just don't register my presence until they bump into me.  It's not just some subtle disregard, either - it's pervasive, bizarre, and creepy, like you wouldn't believe.

[Sophie90]

I'm another person who only does things well if I put them off until the last moment... I lack motivation otherwise.

My ability to dramatically adjust my sleeping pattern is also pretty awesome, particularly for meeting those damn deadlines... and going out. 

[Jemma]

I can also BS my way with through a paper at the last minute...

I think the weirdest thing that I do though is being able to walk and read a book at the same time without hurting myself.  I only run into things or trip when I'm watching where I'm going.

Coo-ool!

Maybe you should consider a career-change and become an international jewel-thief.

[Jamie-o]

I'm told I'm "Scary like Sam".  Long story.  But I'm thinking of putting it on a T-shirt.   

I have double-jointed thumbs. 

Occasionally I accidentally memorize poems, lectures, T.V. shows, etc.  Wish I could control when that happens, though.  I memorized "The Walrus and the Carpenter" in two readings, but half the time I can't remember my own address.

I wonder if that's my problem.  I've made half a dozen people jump out of their skins when I spoke to them in the last week.   

[Cyndigurl45]

I can stand behind someone inches from there head and they never knew I was there and I can make the long shot, meaning using my friends .50 caliber Browning, I can hit a playing card at 2000 feet, thats like a mile away

That happens to me all the time.  In high school, people would joke that I was a stalker.  For some reason, I never found that very funny.

Not... quite 

[tekla]

More like 5280.

[Cyndigurl45]

Duh I said "like a mile" as in a really, really long way away. BTW how far is it to your house

My son once played Soul Calibur II against himself: one controller was in his hands while the other was on the floor, under his feet.

I kid you not: the foot-controlled character won.

That's because Soul Caliber has always been a buttonbasher's dream. No skill is required.
