    I can't wink... not even close.

    I also can't raise one eyebrow above the other... maybe the two are related?

    What about you? Is there anything you can't do, that most people are able to do?

    My boyfriend can wink with both eyes and thinks it's strange that I cannot. I can wink the right one but I just end up blinking with both when I try to wink the left one.

    I'm the same for both of these. People always comment on the knife thing too.

    Do one of those piercing gurrier whistles with two fingers in my mouth.

    It was a source of massive anguish and shame in my youth.

    I'm the same with the knife. I don't see why people would use a fork in their left hand? :confused: It's not a natural thing to raise food to my mouth with my left! I would probably stab myself!

    I can't for the life of me use a skipping rope or a Hula hoop, thankfully I am male so don't have to!

    I can't see 3D movies properly because of my heavy left eye dominance. The 3D effect is completely lost on me.

    I can move my ears. They also react to sounds in the same way dog's ears do.

    I can't use a scissors with my left hand. Have to use a nail clippers for the nails on my right hand, because my left is so useless. Can't even cut paper properly if I use my left hand and I have no idea why!!

    Hard luck mate. You can't always get what you want, I guess.
