[Closed] Little techniques in life that make you all of TEH AWSUM!

Breathing.

Binners can do something with his eyeballs, I understand.

I can finely chop half an onion into 4mm cubes in <7s

My eyesight involves me using spectacles for all close up stuff, but my job involves me needing to see well at all distances. I tend to wear my specs on my head, then a quick nod forwards brings them down onto my nose.

I know, I know, it's a skill...

my insanely incredible best in the worldest level of modesty.

As I live and breath.. I am indeed Most Awesome.

Recognising that you can not choose awesome, rather that AWESOME is bestowed on you by others.
EDIT: See.

Surfmatt is teh awesome........... 8)

Ability to count to 10. Repeatedly.

It takes a particularly great person to hand out Awesome.

I can wiggle my ears 🙂

(OK, I know, definately not awesome ... just a bit quirky ... sigh ...)

I can wiggle my ears

snap.

I can snort a condom up my nostril and round the back of my throat. Pull it back out of my mouth and squeegee my sinus with it. But I dont think it's that awesome and havent done it in public for 20 years 😉

I am indeed that Great Person..

As I look in the mirror (very often) I turn, take one last peek, as I leave it looking sideways and agree out loud that I am indeedy Most Awesome.

It is ok to hand it out to yourself..

Anyone else Most Awesome?

As for techniques, erm.. I can windsurf a bit, so I get wet a lot, which makes me even more Most Awesome.

I can too understand what Elf types, which in itself is a Most Awesome ability I have.

And I stay on here, which when you look at it makes us All Most Awesome.

My favourite skills are:

1) The ability to gently close the fridge door with a trailing leg whilst spinning through 180deg away from aforementioned fridge.
2) Being able to check neutral, remove seatbelt, lock steering, apply handbrake, turn off indicators and open car door in sequence at techno tempo.
3) Being able to type my very loooong password quickly without looking and with a flair on the enter key at the end. *double festive power grab*
4) Being able to remove the dog lead from the collar with what looks like a flick of the wrist but is actually very swift de-clasping.

These and many more are the skills which keep life interesting

You my man get more roasts!

I am going to practice the little finger coaster trick. Sounds like a good addition to the repertoire.

i can do a hundred eye lash press ups

*double festive power grab*

Move forward three spaces for that. Very much of teh awsum!

I can flick my undies up with my foot and catch them on my head.

I can spray saliva from the gland under my tongue accurately to several feet.

at will? Skillz.
I can only squirt when someone opens a bag of tanfastics within 3m of me.

[i]I can flick my undies up with my foot and catch them on my head.[/i]

Who's wearing them? You or someone else?

+ [i]and havent done it in public for 20 years[/i]

Yeah, keep practising it in private.

Undo bras with my left hand. Through clothing. I have upset many of my female friends with that one, after a few drinks. Aren't I awful.

I can only squirt when someone opens a bag of tanfastics within 3m of me.

Presumably that's a reflex action?

So you lot will all be looking forward to [url= http://dayofawesomeness.com/ ]10th March[/url] then.

I can put my hands just in front of me and rotate them in opposite directions in circles. I can also clasp hands together and do the same with my thumbs...I'm a bit sad!

I can flick my undies up with my foot and catch them on my head.

Ahh but can you catch them behind your back, then place them on your head while speaking Russian?

chvck - that reminds me of something this girl was demonstrating to her friend on the train a while ago. She could do all these tricks with her fingers she'd learnt in church meetings (not relevant, but that's what she said!)

Let me try to describe one.
Hold your hands in front of your face with your index fingers touching
Now with your left finger you draw a square (about 8") in the air. Start at the top and draw downwards, then out, up, then back to where you started.
Simultaneously, your right finger draws a straight line up and down.
So for each line your left finger draws, your right goes first down, then up.

It's bloody hard to do!

(She also did one with her little fingers and thumbs but that's too hard to describe.)

I'm trying to think of practical applications for that girls unique talents... was she able to talk fast... especially tongue movement at the same time?

head while speaking Russian?

I can do the speaking Russian part 😉

I can use ticket machines and self service checkouts like a boss, If you hear "please wait for assistance" - you have failed.

After i put something in the dishwasher i turn around and close the door with a footy back flip...

If you hear "please wait for assistance" - you have failed.

Even if you are buying booze?

🙁

I have upset many of my female friends with that one

can't imagine why.... please don't do that it's not cool once you get past fourteen.

i have no skills at all. 😀

So.. by your reconing I am not Most Awesome?

Awwwwww, awwwwwwweeeeeeeeee

"flounce"

I can make a lighted cigarette disapear into my mouth, no hands, and bring it back 30 seconds later. Except I don't smoke anymore.

[i] was she able to talk fast... especially tongue movement at the same time?[/i]

Not sure what you mean, but she was about 14...

My skill was meant to be that I can throw a tea bag in a cup from about 4 metres (this distance across my kitchen and out the hall door a bit when I was young).

However I've been practising this from about the age of 10, 20 years, and although Im alot better now (ie most tea bags land near the cup) I'm still lucky if about 1 in 10 go in.

When holding a pen between my thumb and index finger I can flick it with my middle finger so it spins around my thumb in a uber cool gravity defying kinda way.

I can do it with both hands, at the same time... and with two pens in my right hand.

I used to be able to throw a small lump of chalk into someones pint, from dartboard distance away. My mate bet me I couldn't do it again after another 5 beers, I did. 😆

Eeeeewwww... DebZ if you were a man I'd call you a pervert 🙁

😆

*is confused*

I don't know any other languages. I do know foreign idioms though. I get by.

CaptJon +1

& I can still do the rubik's cube

please don't do that it's not cool once you get past fourteen

Pfft. Your mum thought it was cool.

I can do the pen spinning one, but only with one hand.
And I can put a 4" nail up my nose.

How did you find this out?

How did you find this out?

More worrying is Stoner's condom related "technique". One could be concerned how he found that out, but then one remembers where he was educated.... 😉

The best I've got is being able to say the alphabet backwards, and also being able to burp the alphabet (forwards... not backwards).

I can 'speedy board' all easyjet flights without ever having the correct boarding pass

More worrying is Stoner's condom related "technique".

Perhaps he was trying to make the nail a little safer?

So you lot will all be looking forward to 10th March then.

I always win at least one coconut every time within 3 goes sometimes 2 coconuts,
I can wiggles my little toes
I can raise one eyebrow at will
I too could do the bra undo trick then i got married and was told to stop!
I am a champion baby winder burrrp
see even i can be awesome sometimes

Using a spoon and a fully inflated cheek I can play Harold Faltermeyer’s 'Axel F' with great accuracy and some entertainment value.

I can do the Rubik's Cube also.

I can recite the alphabet backwards or, kill me, in QWERTY keyboard order. I can also say the alphabet as a single word.

I can burp at will, and have managed to burp "dodecahedron" before now.

I can do Cameron (from Ferris Bueller's Day off)'s 'water droplet' cheek trick.

Life skillz.

Easy. New tube of tooth paste.

Part A: Flick the top of the box open with your thumb, launch the now open box upwards, let go of the box, letting it drop, as it draws level with your knee, bring up a foot to meet it and guide it neatly into the bin.

Part B:Catch the now falling tube of tooth paste in left hand, flick lid open and squeeze just enough for a good brush out.

relax and enjoy good oral hygiene and mad bathroom skillz.
My wife thinks I'm stupid.

I can run and hula hoop at the same time. It's a complex rhythm to maintain.

OOOOh, just remembered. I can do the shotgun-a-can-of-beer-trick as seen in that filum 'The Sure Thing.'

i once flipped 25 bar mats.

i also can get out of the car knowing every thing is off/safe with in 2 seconds

I can put my handbrake on at traffic lights/junctions so's not to blind the poor sod stuck behind me, and as an encore I use my indicators at roundabouts Ta Dah!

I am yet to be on celebrity jungle or celebrity ice dancing, surely I must possibily the only person left in the world who has not been on this shite given the tenuous links that folks who star in these program's have with the term celebrity

I used to be able to blow the most awsum smoke rings. Even round peoples fingers pointed at me. Blow one through the other...really thick, rolling ones that would hang in the air for ages...it just ain't that cool anymore. 🙁 And it does require one being a regular smoker. So I am back at zero awsum.

can roll a coin around my fingers.

Can baton twirl.

I can do rolling stoppies on a road bike, and this is the awesome bit; I can change to the small ring while doing so.

I can roll a rollie one handed. Not much use for that anymore either.

I really need to work on my awsum.

IM pretty handy at emptying pint glasses

Oh yeah, got a Tongue stud, it's a life skill for sure!!

I can carry 4 full pints of beer. My dad considers this makes my university education 'money well spent'

Can also wiggle my ears. It's a hereditary skill you know.

When holding a pen between my thumb and index finger I can flick it with my middle finger so it spins around my thumb in a uber cool gravity defying kinda way.

+1, we're so rad it hurts.

converting beer to urine whilst dozing

Stoner's condom related "technique".

Does anyone else open bananas with a flick of the wrist ? - my kids think that's well ossum

I can 'park' a 26', 1 ton boat in our 30' wide harbour, either in parallel park mode or 360* in and park mode without touching the sides, only using a knackered old Mariner outboard.

*is the shizzle*

i once flipped 25 bar mats.

I reckon I could probably double that. Or come close, anyway. I once bet someone a pint that I could flip "all the mats in the pub" (without getting new packs out of the back), and won.

I can open a matchbox and light a match all using one hand pnly

I remember Stoner on a party trick thread ages ago saying he could snort a condom. properly awesome. I remember as well Surf matt trying to make out that a handstand was too 🙄
