I'm the same way. An interesting side note, my youngest daughter was in pre-school this year, and the teachers commented that sometimes she'd be writing something, and it didn't look like she was doing the letters properly, but once they turned the paper the right way, everything was written correctly.

I am really good at roller skating. It used to benefit me because I worked as a DJ/floor guard at a roller rink for 3years. Paid well for a high school/early college job. Hasn't benefited me in several years though.

I am SUPER good at live PA (acid house/techno). It was a pretty well paying job for a while, but nobody is interested in real electronic music anymore. They're all into that McTrance, "DJ's" and "Electronica". (Electronica is a fake word, made up by the recording industry ::GASP: I'm glad there are some good artists left over from the rave years, so I'm not totally cynical yet.

That and driving. No real racetracks within 50 miles of me, though, and it's expensive.

My minesweeper skills are impressive to say the least.

 

[dguy6789]

Smash Bros. Melee. Although I do win a good amount of money playing in tournaments.

I'm very good with rifles...now i suppose if i was in the military that would be good...but i'm not so it's fairly useless. I'm fairly confident in my shooting skills, I've managed to kill a turkey with a headshot with a .22 with iron sights from about 50 yards away and also managed a heart/lung shot on a deer that was roughly 250 yards away with my .30-06....*that* was by far my most impressive shooting.

For what it's worth I'm also able to keep myself calm even when most people are flipping out....perhaps that why I'm an ER nurse because when other people are panicking I'm still just as calm and level headed as normal...

I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure I'll never have much use for Russian language, living in the U.S. However I wouldn't say I'm ridiculously good at it, but not bad either.

How I can recall the most useless information but not something important like my wifes birthday

For example, I worked at a video rental store in my teens and still know most actors names and what movies they've been in but make no effort whatsoever to retain this info, I'm by no means into the whole celebrity scene.

 

[Tsaico]

I am very good at the ball on the rubberband attached to a paddle. I can average 5 min or so until I mess up.

 

[Fritzo]

I can do a counter clock-wise swirl without a knuckle.

 

[Anubis]

im a god at Super Mario Kart (SNES)

I think that actually be known as the second most useless skill known to man. Number 1 is knowing how to yo-yo

 

[spanner]

Spotting compression and interlacing artifacts. More of a curse really

Classic Battletech

My friends wanted me to go to Gencon and enter tournaments. It got so ridiculous at times that I would take a severely outmatched force against my friends and still win.
