Small underrated skills

Cutting my own hair. Honestly I don't know why a hell of alot more people do it. It's super easy to master, you get the exact result you want everytime. No waiting in line, and probably saved me tens of thousands of dollars over a couple of decades.

i haven't really read all of this thread, but are grown up males actually bragging about being able to type fast?

Knot tying. There are so many and peeps that know how can use a good knot for just about anything.

I member learning them in cubscouts and someone brought up the noose and we were told we can't be taught that ....so naturally it was the first one we all became extremely proficient in.

When I try masturbating with my left hand my right hand soon slaps the left hand and takes over. So bossy How do I stop this ?

Looking good, bro!

... when you got the "confidence" to drive formula 1, while you're still on your learners permit.

You can do self skin fades though, there are toutorials on youtube.
Low taper fades are way easier and better though, since everybody has skin.

Most general maintenance is quite easy. It's the effort that gets most people!

Toilets have gotta be one of the easiest things to install/repair. Nothing to em!

Knowing exactly how a toilet works also allows you to really fuck with people who piss you off.

That's unfortunate. You should practice more.

I just tested myself, been a bit.....here are the results. I did four attempts. All had 100% accuracy. A bit more practice and I'd be up to 80. 90 may have been a bit high of a claim.

Nice. I also took typing in 10th grade as a throw away class but it's ended up being possibly the most useful since then. After four attempts looks like our average wpm was the same at 66 but your best result beat my 69 lol.

better than the old days when they had to hire some secretary. Although, I guess men always liked having some woman at their beck and call.

I always typed fast but I wouldn't brag about it. It's useful these days, I learned on those old fashioned typewriters from a Japanese teacher name Mrs. Watanabe.

i only did that shit once, had to beg one of my teachers to keep my baseball cap on.

OK I tried again and got 78 wpm but it was a super easy passage about cows killing 33 people a year or some shit, with lots of short words and few numbers. The previous attempt where I got 64 wpm had a bunch of long ass words and was about poisonous shit with lots of numbers and punctuation marks. I'd say 65-70 wpm sounds about right for me on average, but this test is probably +/- 10 wpm depending on complexity of the passage.

Parking. I mean, it's not very fucking hard, people. You stay. Between. The lines. Same concept as kindergarten coloring pages. Honestly, I feel people just don't give a shit, but it really irks me how easy it is and how many people fuck it up hardcore.

Especially with all the fucking sensors and cameras on cars now too. You can literally park your car or truck perfectly centered within a couple thousandths of an inch.. and people out here still fuckin it up

Multitasking and being quick and efficient with any physical task

Being a good listener

Good communication/ likeable communication. Meaning people will have a favorable opinion of you fairly quickly and at a minimum not many will hate you

And most importantly of all....work ethic. Lazy people suck at everything. Or even if they are good at something you could only imagine how great they could be if they did it like it mattered.

This thread is about minor stuff like brushing your teeth without using your hands or being able to know what people ate by the smell of their farts.

Not about how much of an übermensch you are.

Backing up while hauling a trailer

Being an amateur mixologist I guess? Good to know that person anyway

Good call on basic rigging and securing loads (i.e. tying knots).

you can get throat cancer from that ya know. I once told a dude that farrah fawcett died from taking it up the butt and he got defensive, i just assumed that he liked taking it up the butt ,the research is clear.

You can get cancer from the food you eat in general. You can Just call me Michael Douglas.
