    I'd love to be able to play guitar or drums.

    I'd also love to speak a foreign language fluently. Obviously I could take lessons for that but the musical talent is something I think you're born with... and I ain't got it :o

    Music takes hard work and training. You're not born able to play the guitar

    I'll go with the high heels thing too.

    Way to ruin my mental image of you. :mad:

    I can't sing in tune. Doesn't stop me trying though, but only when I'm alone. My poor house plant is tortured by the whole thing.

    Oh, I know that, what I should have said was I think some people just have a gift and with the hard work and training they can become brilliant at it. I haven't a note in my head, but I can design, paint and sketch. Whereas my gf couldn't draw a stickman to save her life. I definitely think some things are ingrained in us. :)

    My 2 yr old niece thinks she can, she thinks shes deadly!
    No one has the heart to tell her to stop, instead we sit there, listening to her recitals in pain!

    I must be a serious lost nerd, can't believe after 8 pages I haven't seen anything similar to:

    Can't draw to save my life. I can barely make stick figures. I always wanted to be even passable at art but sadly wasn't to be.

    can't tell which diagonal I'm on when doing rising trot (horsey people will get that)

    You should be out of the saddle when the front right leg is forward. If you mean by feeling without looking, do some sitting trot and you will feel the slight push every second beat and that push is the beat you should be risen for. Sometimes when I can't feel this push I close my eyes to feel the movement more so I don't know if this will help you..

    Should do, I've never driven a horse in my life, but know exactly what you're talking about.

    Dive
    Click my fingers
    First one: Jump, head first.

    Second: Just keep trying. I can do it now after about ten years of sporadic tries and fails.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,137 ✭✭✭44leto


    Draw or sketch, I am totally inept at it, I don't even understand how people do it, my matchstick men don't even look right. Yet I love art.


  • Registered Users Posts: 247 ✭✭MadameGascar


    Can you not whistle normally, like a melody, or loudly on your fingers?
    I cannot for the life of me whistle on my fingers, I would never get a cab in New York.
    I can whistle Dixie all day long, but as for putting my fingers in my mouth and whistling so it can be heard three blocks away, not a chance.
    It's the oddest thing...
    Still wouldn't go to the doctor over it though!:D

    No not at all the whole whistling thing goes over my head completely, I just end up with a stupid look on my face feeling foolish. And I only mentioned it to my doc after seeing him for something else :p

    I've tried the jumping head first:p It results in belly flops:o
    Must keep up with the finger clicking practice though.

    Technically, I haven't tried it, but I can't imagine myself being able to blow a bubble with chewing gum. I see people do it but I'm not sure of the technique.

    I had some of that last week and what glue or LSD are those testers sniffing, I immediately knew that vile petrol tasting substance WAS NOT BUTTER.

    I can't work out what Spartacus Vengeance is meant to be.
