I can say the alphabet faster backwards than forwards--that is what happens when you're bored at the age of three. I can also make the sound of one hand clapping, but anybody can do that with enough flexibility in their fingers.

My talents aren't really too great.

Any talent is good. Especially the one hand clap thing. I wish I could do that.

Also, I certainly do.

You see, I've always been very good at 2 things: Golf and Baseball. I've had people compliment me on my skills in baseball, and have had people ask me for golf tips.

Those, good wulf, are my talents.

Drawing. I obviously have more skill in that than the av-er-age person.

Playing the piano.

I'd say I'm more skilled than most at it.

I have a good ear. Music wise, I mean. Pity my voice isn't stronger.

But yeah, my old violin teacher reckoned I had perfect pitch. I don't, thought.

Playing the recorder. I'm really good at it, but I got bored with it a year or two ago because I'd been doing it since I was eight.

I'm also pretty good at imitating other peoples' writing voices, I think.

I have can make weird noises. A really loud noise withy my fingers if I hit 'em on my chin, the armpit fart noise with my hands, and there's probably something else.

I also have fast typing skills (but I jab D:)

One of the people I know can do that. I, however, could never get it to work out.


While we're on the subject of weird noises, I like to crack my neck and back often, and when I do, it is quite loud. I'm trying to stop doing the neck-cracking now, but my back will always remain in poor shape thanks to me! :D

1. Place your hands on each other, palm to palm.
2. Make sure that the fingers are only touching the ones opposite them (i.e, pinky to pinky)
3. Hit on any surface. Make sure fingers are only touching the opposites or it won't work.

(not reccomended on hard surfaces)

Is it hollow sounding? Because I think I did it if that's the objective.

Not much. I can play the piano better than some peoples. And I play basketball, although I'm not as good as some people think I am. :rolleyes:

Oh, I know somebody who can do all sorts of the craziest sounds. Like, he can hit his cheek in some special manner and make it sound like a drip. He can also do that sound that you described, in addition to being able to do extremely good voices for just about everything. He can also say all of the countries in the world. In, like, 3 minutes or something. He's a cool guy. :D

I can play the clarinet, draw, and think and talk randomly. That's a talent, right?
I also have a stickfigure comic series (read below) and I also have a really good ear for music.
I can't name notes, but I can tell if they're sharp or flat, and how much so. And I can whistle. And move one eye and not the other. And other random useless stuff.

I can make the armpit fart noise with my armpit and without my hands. I can type 120 to 135 WPM at my best!

That Husky's ok, but I've looked through your deviantart and your style is just way to jaggedy and ugly.

I can also make the farting noise with my hand. I'm an ok drawer, I've never really tried to do anything with that, though. I can kind of sing, and I've been told I'm funny.

I guess that you could also consider me a pretty good artist and writer, maybe shifted more to the writing side. I still have a lot that I can improve on, though.

Oh yeah, I'm in the school chorus and people laugh at my jokes. That counts.

My art's not THAT horrendous, and I can put both feet behind my head at once.

Location: The world is ours to follow! (In the bandwagon of course)
Through years of trying not to wake up my parents while sneaking downstairs on Saturday mornings, I have developed the abilty to walk without making barely any noise. I can also do a near-perfect impression of Gollum. It does wonders in a face-off.

Opponent: *glaring hard*

Me: They stole it from ussssssss!!!

Opponent: *gets funny look on his face and runs away screaming*
*I think he thinks I'm possessed or something*
*Which might have to do with the police showing up at my house...twice*
*And that run-in with the ghostbusters guys*
*Ever had a vaccum stuck on your face?*
*Not fun, not fun at all*

I'm a decent artist and writer, I've been told I'm funny, I think I might be a supertaster, and my thumbs are double-jointed.

That's pretty much it.
