Guest Posted February 3, 2018 Posted February 3, 2018 What easy things are you bad at? I'll start: tying my shoes. Such a simple thing to do but I've never worn shoes with shoelaces as I'm simply not good at it.

I've never acquired the skill for whatever reason and I too can think of some occasions where people have been shocked when they've seen me not able to do it. I remember when there was that craze with laughing gas a couple of years back and I could never do that either, not that I ever cared for it but there was always the odd moment where people would be doing it at a party or more commonly away on holiday somewhere and I get offered one. In fairness, I was never really interested in that stuff at all anyway but I couldn't do it at all. A similar thing, the concept of inhaling and exhaling smoke as well took me a while to learn how to do as well, I've only learnt that from having the odd smoke over the years but at the beginning it took me a while.

Burning Gold Posted February 3, 2018 Posted February 3, 2018 Shuffling cards. Can't fuckin do it I recently gained the ability to blow up balloons. Just gotta blow harder. The difficulty for me now is not half filling them with saliva
Machado Posted February 4, 2018 Posted February 4, 2018 Sometimes writing a couple of paragraphs can take me 10 minutes, even in Portuguese. It's because I keep trying to find the words that describe better what I'm trying to say, as well as changing the structure of the sentence itself.

Spike Posted February 4, 2018 Posted February 4, 2018 Apparently I can lack self-awareness and can come off as very abrasive. or so I've been told.

SirBalon Posted February 4, 2018 Posted February 4, 2018 I thought the thread title said; “Things you suck on” I suffer from a lack of patience with people once they’ve been shown what to do or when you’ve shown them their errors and they continue to persist with another way. I try to tell myself not to lose it but I fail time and time again which usually has me apologising later on but insisting that they were being stupid.

Inverted Posted February 4, 2018 Posted February 4, 2018 Not changing my accent when trying to chat to foreign girls. Catching things. Dealing with spiders. It takes me about 10 minutes to work up the courage to kill/catch one.
Rick Posted February 4, 2018 Posted February 4, 2018 Small talk, though I guess most people would say that. Phone calls are the worst. How do you struggle with a balloon though? Next you'll be saying you can't ride a bike.

My thoughts exactly I could understand maybe not being able to pop it with your finger but stepping on it seems to be the solution.
