What are some skills you have that are practically useless to you in your life?

For me, I can rap and say tongue twisters really quickly, and I can solve Rubik's cubes. I can wiggle my ears, and I can raise single a single eyebrow. Also, I'm horrifically flexible in some ways... I've lost a little bit of it as I've gotten older, though. In my teenage years, I could do the shit like putting my leg behind my head which would freak people out. My friends still act mortified when they see how I sit because I sit in a modified "criss-cross" position. Instead of having my two legs bent in and intertwining, both feet going under the knees, I have my two legs sitting on top of each other, if that makes any sense (I'm actually typing while sitting like this). Never thought anything of it until one of my friends called me out for it in high school and then I found out that this is apparently a unique skill...

I can make a baseball bounce and hit any corner of the SZ I want, any time I want — it's useless because a pitch hitting the dirt won't count as a strike.

Oh, check it out! It's actually legal if I can get someone to swing at it.

This opens up some options...
 
I can win the hot pepper eating contest.
 
I can do many things with either hand, whereas people typically use one hand for a given task. For example, can you imagine using a knife with your dominant hand and then the other the next time? I do things like this unconsciously all the time, confusing others. People usually can't tell if I'm right- or left-handed.::eggmanlaugh
 
I can flex my right pec, I almost always know what time it is without checking, and I can tell you when the microwave is going to stop.
