I thought I’d create a thread to see what unusual things guys here on CIK are good at. A few years ago I used to listen to a talk back radio show and people would call in and talk about what quirky things they excelled at, and I found it to be really interesting and at times hilarious.
I’ll kick it off with a couple……
I can stack a dish rack to perfection (yes occasionally I’ll do them myself by hand as I hate dishwashing machines).
I’ll have all of the plates, saucers, cutlery and even bulky cooking utensils stacked in such a way that when I get home the next day they are as dry as a bone, no tea towel required to dry any little bits of water, and ready to be put straight into the cupboard. I could challenge any of my family or friends and they wouldn’t get close to doing it effectively as I do.
Secondly, I can spot a bloke wearing a hair piece a mile off. If I’m strolling through a shopping centre and I see a dude out of the corner of my eye that’s got a boot polish coloured rug, bang I’ve got him!
So lads, what are you good at?
 
Im a chameleon. I can blend in with any class, race, intelligence level, etc.

Im going on a personal trip with the owner of my company, all covered by him, but also love sharing a beer or a chat with many of the employees that I manage.

Probably a bit patronizing sometimes, but I like to get different perspectives on life.
 
I can drive a car in reverse pretty well, to back down winding driveways, or even tricky one way 4x4 trails. I got good at it from driving a forklift, which is often driven backwards due to the load on the forks blocking the forward view.
I have a knack for spotting money on the ground. Even when I am riding my bicycle I can often spot a 5 cent coin from 10 metres away. Maybe I have some unknown Jewish ancestry somewhere in my lineage haha.

Double whammy, I can pick up a coin off the ground with a forklift.
 
This one’s not mine, but regarding a guy I used to spend a lot of time with at the local pub many years ago. He could roll up a smoke as good and as quickly as no other. He would take out the papers, sprinkle on the tobacco, give it a quick lick of the tongue, then bingo it was in his gob and he was puffing away in no time! And it was always shaped perfectly. As a life long non smoker I was always impressed.
