Inspired by Snoopy... what obscure talent do you have?

[clutter]

For instance, although I cannot roll my tongue into a U shape, I can wiggle my ears. Although I never showed anyone until well past high school!

 

[bsnyder]

I can tie a knot in a cherry stem, with my tongue.

I can also turn my tongue upside down, and make it into a U, and into a W!

I can also flip a stack of cardboard coasters (like the kind in a bar or restaurant) from the edge of the table and catch them in mid-air! My all time record is a stack of 17!

Wow, am I ever talented! Either that, or I spent way too much time in bars when I was younger!

 

[SeaSpray]

I can write, in script, mirror image! I discovered that I could this when I was younger and still can do it. People are amazed when I do this, and they think I have a few words practiced, but then I have them give me a sentence to write, and I can write it fluidly, right in front of them. I can sign my name mirror image and when you hold it up to a mirror, its my regular signature, exactly!

I realize it's a useless talent, but hey, it's something.

P.S. I am left-handed and I really think this has something to do with it. And no, I am not dyslexic.

 

[Saffron]

I can do the cherry stem thing too, but I can not turn my tongue over like many can.

I can push my tongue against the inside of my upper lip, kind of in he middle of my lip and make a popping noise, like a bottle of champagne opening.

hold a pencil with my bottom lip

 

[4greatboys]

I can wiggle my ears and nose. I can touch my nose with my tongue. And I can write with my toes.

 

[DonnaS]

Mine are both nose related ...

I can wiggle my nostrils and...


warning this one is gross...



every since I had nasal surgery I can stick my index finger up my nose all the way to my knuckles.

 

[jfulcer]

lessee....

I can pile a stack of coins (like 50 or more) on my elbow holding it about above my head and snap it down and catch them in my hand.

 

[shep]

Make a good water dripping sound....
Make weird noises when I put my hands together...

I hear Perry has a talent when you pull his finger..

 

[catsrule]

You heard correctly, and you don't ever have to pull his finger.

 

[bumcat]

I can cross one eye only.

If there is ever a contest for saying kitty kitty kitty kitty kitty kitty kitty a million times real fast without stopping I would for sure win. This use to come in handy at softball games right before the other team would start pitching.
My kids use to make me do this for their friends when they were younger.

I can turn my tongue over too. I can cross my eyes, or just one at a time and go back and forth between the 2. And I can "quiver" my eyes. I can make them move back and forth so fast you cn hardly see them.

 

[Cindy B]

I can make my eyes really big (ie, like Marty Feldman in Young Frankenstien...).. I used to freak out people with that....


I can read and write upside down. Like if a paper is on a desk, I can read it without turning it around. I can also write things.. if something is turned incorrectly as well.. .


I can turn my elbow inside out... (hard to explain!)

 

[Serena]

Well, the only thing of all those listed I can do is read upside down.
Besides that, I can't think of anything.

 

[Robinrs]

I can imitate anyone's singing voice...

I also can spell anything.... A-n-y-t-h-i-n-g! No seriously, if I could get paid for spelling I always said I'd be the Michael Jordan of spelling but unfortunately, it's NOT basketball!!

 

[nativetxn]

I feel so talentless after reading this thread. I don't think I have any obscure talents

 

[thelooneyhouse]

I make this most irritating sound by rubbing my tongue up against my tooth.
It freaks my mom out,she said I have done this since I was about 4 years old and it sounds like fingernails on a chalk board.
talk about a useless talent!!!!

 

[Kitty 34]

I can move my tongue a certain way to make it sound like a herd of horses!!
