    I can bite them but its a bit of a strech and it aches to do it, which along with the fact its disgusting is probably why I have done it for at least a decade...

    I can do loads of kick ups with a football... which isn't even useful when playing football (a few maybe) and isn't exaclty all that impressive to watch

    I can read that number that comes up on the simpsons when maggie goes through the baby scanner

    I can attach all kinds of things to plastic car parts quickly (some still useful back working there now) and I can tell if you have plastic or wooden facias and soffits (and windows)

    I have no martial art skill whatsoever apart from the pressure point

    I can play a burning guitar, left-handed, behind my head...... . . . okay, I kid.
    But you know those people who can turn their eyelids inside out a bit? I can do that, it isn't incredibly useful.

    Some useless skills I master:

    stay awake for a very very long period of time...
    stand on my head
    puke on command (this does comes in handy when you're feeling ill)
    put my fist in my mouth
    ...

    In short, I'm pretty sure I have more useless skill than usefull ones.

    Do you know that if your fist is smaller than your mouth, you are more susceptible to cancer?

    Cool store, bro! I want some ham.
    No ham, pepsi.
    They make deli slices of frozen pepsi now? Awesome!
    You also need to purchase a small freezer for storage of your pepsi.
    It runs on batteries. You'll need a few.
    Uhh, I guess I won't have pepsi then. Do you have change for a twenty?

    any math from Pre-Algebra up, and Latin. Fun course, I got an "A", but I'll never get to do a follow up and its pretty useless.

    Also any English between 8th and 12th grade. in a year of 8th grade and 2 years of high school english, i have not learned a single thing that has not just been repeated over and over and over and over and over since 4th grade. how bout something new?

    Computer class. Didn't learn anything but a few useless hotkeys that i didnt already know.

    Business class. Never gonna be a businessman; I hate business, though i kick ass at business sims most of the time.

    Met a girl who knows pi to the hundredth decimal place digit(more accurate?).

    Anyway, most pointlessly impressive thing I've seen in a while.
