Things You Can't Do That Seemingly Everybody Else Can.

Degag

Inspired from the I can't change a plug thread.

I can't change a plug, i wouldn't even know what wires to cut.
I'm pretty useless at all things DIY
I can't whistle
I can't click my fingers
I can change a tyre but wouldn't be too confident doing it

So AH, what can't you do?

Dennis the Stone

Better myself.

Burp. I don't think I have ever deliberately burped in my life.

LighterGuy

- I cant whistle too.
- Although I can tie my shoe laces people say I have a funny way of doing so. Dare I be honest, people have often said "you dont know how to tie your own shoe laces, do you?" :pac: Dont care. My way works fine :pac:

Its kinda funny cause at the same time I can do things other people cant. Esecially when it comes to DIY.

I'll second that, I am desperate at whispering.

Im another person who can't whistle. I had an embarrassing experience because of it at a dog obedience class. The instructor kept telling me to whistle to get the dog's attention, so after a few pathetic attempts I had to shamefully admit in front of everyone that I wasn't able to.

I cant understand why Jack Black keeps getting work. I just cant.


I also cant study. Not at all. I can sit down and do practice tests or something, but if you give me notes and tell me to read them, I just cant. At best I'll read all the words, but take nothing in.

Y'know, changing a tire is a lot like making love to a beautiful woman:
First, you crank 'er up, then you take off the rubber and screw your nuts off!
(I honestly just came up with that right now, I'm so impressed with myself! :P )

Well, I was going to make a "playing snooker is a lot like making love to a beautiful woman" joke, but then the images of shit and blood kinda put me off. Sleep tight everyone! :pac:

I also can't whistle and I also have my own weird unique lace-tying technique. I can't do that live long and prosper hand sign either.

Lick my elbow.

moonflower

Can't whistle or click my fingers.

I can't quote correctly or as H.G. Wells said
"Adapt or perish, now as ever, is nature's inexorable imperative"

mackg

Can't open bottles with a lighter, can do it with the edge of a table and occasionally get it with the lighter but not anywhere near consistently.

That thing where you flick underneath your mouth and it makes a noise like a tap dripping.

Dancor

Can't swim. Everyone I know is able to.

Plazaman

Those stupid Magic Eye 3D pictures. Whilst everyone oohs and ahhs at the dolphins or whatever, I'm stuck crosseyed looking at a badly painted picture.

irelandspurs

Last longer than 2 minutes

Lady Chuckles

Make sense and roll my tongue

dirtypanties

I can't drink until I pass out&I can't go on the lash the day after going on the lash-I am a pathetic excuse for an Irish person.

Am i??

Like the Harry Potter books and films.

I can't whistle. I mean, I can whistle enough to make some awful high pitched noise that sounds like a pressure cooker, but that's it.

I can whistle sucking in but not blowing out. Also can not make any noticeable changes of pitch.

CardBordWindow

I can't get Post of the Day!

daveyboy_1ie

Whistle, very embaressing.

Also, can never for the life of me 'see' parents features in their new born babies. I think they all look the same and end up lying and saying things like 'yeah he defo has his fathers nose alright'. Truth be told, I think he looks like a baby, and thats all I see

**Timbuk2**

I can't wink! I can close both my eyes at once, or have them both open, but definitely can't just close one eye!

Gary4279

I can't stop a sneeze. Everyone seems to be able to do this but when I try it feels like my head is about to explode and I get a hand full of snots

EverEvolving

I can't roll my R's

I'm pretty crap at accents. All my accents tend to sound like a South African hippy.

demakinz

Post a witty response in AH's.

I cant go for the cure the day after a night on the town, no matter how many people say that the cure is the only thing for a severe hangover, i cant bring myself to let a drop of drink pass my lips....pathetic arent i!

qz

Have never been able to roll my R's, makes me incredibly jealous of those who can, ie: everyone!

my singing teacher is trying to get me to do it for some reason, it helps with something or other, but im useless :rolleyes:

stupidusername

i can't light a fire, or top one up. no matter what i do, I end up putting a fire out if i try to top it up. and have never managed to actually light one. i'm cursed!

another odd one - i can only raise my left eyebrow independently. I mean I can do both, or i can do my left, but can't do my right by itself.

Craven99

Can't pee at a urinal if there is someone besides me at the next urinal

- roll my tongue (that rolling r sound)
- extricate myself from debates
- make myself sick

I've been able to change a plug since 1st year Home Ec. in secondary school, and I know the whole new wire colour/old wire colour thing from my Dad, but I've NEVER had to change a plug. It's never ever come up, ever. So I've no idea why it's seen as an important life skill. Anyway, if something electronic broke I'd never think to try changing the plug/fuse or anything like that. The plug would have to be falling off for me to ever think to change it, and I'd probably never bother.

I can't spit properly. (It's more polite to swallow anyway)
I can't rollerblade.
I can't drive, but even more infuriating for my friends is, I don't want to.

sbsquarepants

I can't float in a swimming pool - i can swim fine, i can float in the sea, but in a pool i just sink unless i move my arms and legs to stay afloat.
My excuse is i must be big boned!

py2006

I can't:

change a plug
score with a boards chick
manage my money
