Repost? Dunno

What are some simple things that you just suck at.

Personally I can't back my car out, it's pathetic

I also suck at painting walls, like 5 gallons on some shit, layers on layers.

Earlier I said volleyball along these same lines but I forgot about basketball. I can't get the ball no matter what from the opponent without it being a foul or some shit, can't shoot worth shit either, whenever my buddies play I just play d and step on kids feet to trip them haha.

names. i can't remember them for shit. i can remember an entire credit card number, phone number, etc. after looking at it for like 3 seconds, but i'll forget your name 30 seconds after you tell it to me. fml.

example: i worked for a cell phone company like 10 years ago and i still remember that all the sim card numbers were: 89013107700499xxxxxx

names too. I'll remember your life story but not your damn name. whenever I see people again I just ask the about things we talked about 6 months ago and hope they don't realize I never addressed them by their name.

Getting motivated to play pick up sports or whatever. Like a group will play ultimate or pick up football and i just suck. Idk i just don't get motivated. Or team sports in general.

Also, studying, and not being lazy.

1) cracking eggs. 9 times out of 10 I get shell in the pan, and egg white all over
2) parallel parking, hell no
3) math
4) sewing (getting better though)
5) sitting on the lift and placing poles under ass simultaneously, wtf
6) texting
7) remembering people/names

and here's a brief list of simple things I totally kick ass at

1) driving in the snow/rain/ice/any and all inclement weather
2) cooking (minus the egg issue)
3) reading/writing/history
4) talking to (most) girls
5) taking care of plants (not that kind, but it's the same thing)
6) cleaning (thanks mom)
7) music (thanks dad)

Spelling. I have memorized the 1000 most common words used in the GRE. I speak intermediate Spanish, and I am learning French and German as well. Yet I struggle so much with English. Brake or break? Week or weak? Sophomore...definitely...necessarily... It's amazing how my native language just doesn't work with my brain. I compensate by being a human thesaurus.

Getting a haircut:

I never know what I want.

I cannot handle hairdresser small talk.

That small hair is sitting on my nose and I can't fucking itch it.

Please let this torturous ordeal end.

A couple people said the only sport they're bad at is basketball. For me, basketball is easy, especially shooting and playing D, but I cannot hit a baseball/softball that is thrown to me for the life of me. At any speed whatsoever. I can throw and field, but I'm useless as a batter. It makes no sense because I'm very good at golf, and decent at badminton/tennis and all that shit, but I cannot hit a baseball for the life of me.

I'm bad at talking. Which is kinda funny because I'm a tour guide. I've given the same damn tour about 100 times over the summer and I still fumble words all the time. same with just everyday talking I always think too far ahead and mix up words. It's ridiculous.

I'm also bad at writing. I write like I talk so every sentence starts with so or then or something like that.

Masturbating on airplanes. I always get caught. Maybe its because Im always in an aisle seat or maybe its that I yell "bazinga" everytime i cum. Idk but its annoying, people make you feel so bad about yourself.

I hate/suck at basketball as well, but a cool story is when me and a couple of friends were at one of their houses and trying to make like 100 ft shots, and i went down the street a little bit where my view of the net was blocked by shrubs/small trees, and I was pretty far away and probably 30 feet higher, and hurling it front he side straight arm so it had the good curve on it. Many tries later, I made it in a complete swish, no rim at all, and when I got down the net was torn to shreds and feathery pieces of it were floating in the air. The velocity of the ball completely destroyed the net, which I thought was pretty cool.

Apparently ice skating. Went for the first time in probably 10 years, kept getting speed wobbles. Funny for onlookers, not so exhilarating for me haha.
