Don't know how much of a talents some of these are, but oh well.

- I can belch on command. I can often recite the alphabet during a belch, especially after having carbonated beverages.

- I can tie a knot in a cherry stem with my tongue.

- I can wiggle my nostrils. I'd really like to do that with the ears too, but so far, no success. :bandit:

Lets thinks...well...I cant whistle. i guess this technically wouldnt be a talent but since im assuming the large majority of you can I find myself talented for not being able to figure it out.

I can bend my fingers to unnatural angles, freaking out anyone who might be watching. :P

I remember, in high-school, on a biology class, while listening to my teacher explain how joints allow only certain movement and prevent things like bending fingers too far backwards, I seemingly absent-mindedly leaned my chin on my index finger, bending it back so that the tip of it touched the back of my hand. The teacher looked slightly disturbed by the sight. :blink:

I can do that too, I can bend my thumb in a 90 degree angle and fold my hand back to touch my arm, absolutely freaks some people out :happy:
I can also let every finger,wrist and knees make sound as if something breaks (no idea how what this is called in english), scares the hell out of some people:P

"Breaks" is fine.  It's cool when you're the one doing it but rather gruesome when listening to someone else!

I can do the "Vulcan sign" with both hands. I know a lot of people who can't do it for some reason.

I can flare my nostrils without moving any other part of my face. Never noticed it really until someone pointed it out a few years back. I get mixed reactions when I do it...

Oh yeah, I forgot about that: another unconvincing Vulcan here, too.  Star Trek, bringing nerdiness to novelty hand gestures since the 1960s!

I can also embark on spontaneous and involuntary sneezing fits for absolutely no reason whatsoever.  I'd pride myself on their annoyance potential but I think they irritate me more than anyone else.

* I don't know if it counts as talent, but animals seem to love me, even the ones I don't like. 900 lbs elk eat out of my hand, cats that never seen me before curl up on my chest and fall asleep..... I don't know what it is, maybe I just smell really good.

* I can grow a lot of muscle mass in no time at all
* I'm really talented if it comes to weapons, rifles, bows, meele weapons
* Remembering faces and voices

Totally useless talents.

Was that supposed to be sarcastic? Those are very useful talents!

My useless talents are repelling females like a pro and telling inappropriate jokes.

Wait, I suspect my talents could be related...:pinched:

Thanks to all the metal holding me together I can make a host of interesting clicking and cracking noises just by wiggling my fingers or raising my leg. Especially in bad weather.


Ok, now you're gonna have to tell the story :P

I can also "crack" my fingers, which combined with their unusual flexibility can add to the shock value. :o

The cracking is actually caused by bubbles in the synovial fluid which is the lubricant for your joints - they form as you pull the bones apart, and the pressure in the fluid decreases, and then burst, causing the cracking noise.

Yeah, I guess my other useless tallent is knowing random things like that. =]

Oh yeah, I remember being told something like that by an osteopath (a bit like a psychopath, but one who revels in pain being inflicted on people's skeletons.  Probably.) but had forgotten the details.  Knowing that somehow doesn't make the alarming noises in question any less gruesome!

and here i was thinking it was normal for people to be able to do that.
i can move my eyebrows separately. i know alot of people can do that, but nobody i know can and it works wonders during a staring contestPosted Image

Come to think about something else - I can make my hand and neck muscles vibrate.

Reminds me, I can make my face shiver real hard (as in, my head stays still and me face/skin moves) up to the point where I see everything double and my head is about to explode.
Appearently its very funny...

And I always wake up 15-30 minuten before my alarm goes off... but I guess that that isn't totally useless..
