    So folks of AH what is your natural talent? Do you have a natural talent?

    Are you one of these annoying folks who is a natural at everything or are you like me where you have to work your balls off at most things?

    Oh yeah, YOUR MA. Just thought I would get that out of the way.

    i'm unbelievably good at tapping a golf ball with a pitching wedge.. like the tiger woods ads.

    Yore M.... Oh you already said that.

    I am very good at being determined. If it was me and another person in a room with a fire I'd be pretty confident the other person would fill the fire before me.

    That could also be laziness, but I like to think its determination


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,474 ✭✭✭jim o doom


    pretty good hand eye co-ordination for any sport/game/etc.. learn stuff quickly - and good at unknowling hitting people in a spot that already hurts huzzah :)

    I find breathing comes quite natural to me. I don't have to concentrate on it or anything!

    Amazing... We're talking trickshots here?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,639 ✭✭✭✭OldGoat


    My talent is compleatly unnatural cos I had to work and practice and work and train and work to perfect it. Now I have a wonderful and perfectly formed talent. Unnaturally.

    I'm older than Minecraft goats.

    Yeah but are you as good at aiming your piss into the tiolet bowl? I have heard from the women of this world that us men are no good at that talent.*

    Was she a hermaphrodite Turd ? You poor bastard


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,750 ✭✭✭liah


    I can tie knots in cherry stems (or anything, really) using my tongue...

    ...other than things like that I'm pretty hopeless.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,778 ✭✭✭✭Kold


    I'm very very good at pushing people's buttons if I have to.




    I'm also pretty good at drawing and painting and all that lark but that's boring.

    I can pick up random bottles of alcohol and pour them into a glass and somehow always create something nice, that or I'm an alco that would drink vodka and piss out of a boot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,202 ✭✭✭✭Pherekydes


    People get better at things when they practise. The more you practise, the better you get.

    You'll find the naturally gifted child prodigy at maths/chess/the piano/golf has been doing little else for the bulk of their life. It's called the 10000 hour rule. You can actually google that term.

    Talent? Schmalent.

    I'm working my ass off at my MA. :)

    People are lucky to have talents. I have absolutely no discernable talents. I dont even have any pastimes or passions.

    Im a sad example of a human really.

    I can make a person hate a movie/TV show I hate just by watching it with them


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,956 ✭✭✭consultech


    Ok, my ego's turn:

    I am very good at mental arithmetic, like I can divide decimal numbers into other decimal numbers in seconds

    Advanced command of the English language, and a freakish sponge-like memory for word definitions. I often drop words into converstions that I've never even consciously thought about before, but I've obvously taken them on subconsciously at one stage.

    Excellent singing voice, very wide range and extremely good control. Have been told to "f*ck off" when I first sang for one of my (now) best mates who has travelled the world singing in operas when I told him I'd never had any classical training.

    Good dancer, have had same sentiment as above directed at me.

    Played snooker for Ireland about 8 years ago, but will plead the "10000 hour" rule on that one. 8 hours a day during some of my teen years.

    Very good natural footballer when I was younger, can (could) do some crazy kickup stuff.

    Lots more, Im essentially the perfect human being.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,796 ✭✭✭MJOR


    I'm good at hugs


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,928 ✭✭✭✭rainbow kirby


    I'm a speed reader - I read about twice as fast as most normal people do. I'm also pretty good at maths (despite being a CS student rather than a maths one) and I'm good at remembering very small details about certain things.

    I'm also rather amused that half the similar threads to this are from the WoW forum.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,879 ✭✭✭Kya1976


    I'm great at my job(dog trainer), I've always been good with animals.:)

    Yes. By the 10000 hour rule, if you practise 10000 things for one hour each you'll be meh at all of them. :D

    By controlling the sphincter muscle I can dump out the most viscious of skutthers and leave my badge clean as a nun's knickers.

    All it takes is practice and strong glutes:cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 139 ✭✭dave.omeara


    I find breathing comes quite natural to me. I don't have to concentrate on it or anything!

    Except if I'm put under any physical pressure, or if I panic, then I actually forget to breath. Never good especially if you're underwater at the time.

    I have an eye for things, something strange, something unique, something beautiful...
    Everything else requires working my rear off to get good at.
