What random talents do you have?

As far as quirky, random, bullshit that no one could call a talent, some of my friends swear I sound like this fucker. I don't, do I?

Oh that's fantastic. XD
 
Can swallow liquids without closing my mouth and still taking in, fairly easy trick but due to the fact none of my friends or extended friends can do it means I can out-drink anyone I see.

I can also throw up on command by using only my stomach muscles.
 
nah, none of those are me. I am however in the works of my own promo vid 8)

the sport is not very popular in the states because it's so new. it wasn't even recognized as a real thing until early 2009. ever since then though it's been slowly creeping its way across from the east.

the equipment is another reason it hasn't been widely recognized. you need a special type of skate to do the things they are doing in that video, you can't just go out and buy $100 rollerblades at your nearest sporting store and try it yourself.

blades that have a tighter fit+sturdier frame are required. the best ones often utilize carbon fiber in their framework and cost about $700.

This just reminds me of aggressive/power skating which I used to do years ago:

I have the talent to get awful headaches playing video games at low framerates.

Actually though, I am very, very good at psychoanalysis. I have to be in the room with a person generally because you need to see their body, but I can get inside people's heads very quickly IRL. It's an interesting talent.
 
Thought of a few more.

When I have to remember something important, I file it under important in my memory. There is like a folder of the stuff. My parents told me I did this from very young age. I closed my eyes, pointed at a place in my skull, opened my eyes and said "done".

When I don't have food and my body tells me I have to eat, I tell it I know and remind me later. Then it stops. I never can understand people who get angry and complain all the time when they are hungry.

I can tell my body what to do also. Like I had a protruding belly button and someone commented on that, so every night before I went to sleep I told it to start fixing it at night. Took a few weeks. I have done this with many things in my body.

Accents/voices. Enough where in college someone asked during a project if I wanted to go into doing voiceover work.

It'd be nice, but I never saw myself as talented enough to do VO stuff. Just enough to entertain myself and others, and trick a handful of cashiers into thinking I'm British.
 
Even though I'm merely decent at chess and no more, I can still play a game of blind chess to the end.

Gaming-related, I could eagle every holes in one round on a golf game called Pangya.

Best skill of all, I can move my ears back and forth really quickly. Amazing skills.

Edit: I've been playing badminton twice a week for most of my life, even took classes for extended periods, and yet I've managed to keep my level the same, never improving or learning any tactics. This is a talent in itself.
