Parkour or Martial Arts if it would actually do anything, unfortunately your body would still have to be conditioned an muscle memory would cause a lot of strains, sprains and broken bones when you tried stuff until your body was strong enough or flexible enough for it.

Pro Starcraft skills would be sweet.

The ability to read minute body language from other people to tell me exactly how they feel, or what their intentions are. Some people actually have this skill, it's pretty cool.

Perfect mimicry of just about anything would be insanely useful too...

Bah! Too many choices.

Storytelling. If I could mind-steal, say, Stephen King's ability to tell a story, I'd do it. (There'd probably be some horrible, ironic - possibly mentally crippling - consequence in my life, tough.)

If I could get a second talent, I'd pick public speaking. If you're good enough at that, you're pretty much set for life.

Download empathy, stick it on a USB and upload it to my boyfriend.

For myself, probably martial arts and 'not giving a shit-ness'
Wait, your boyfriend lacks empathy? o_O He's still fun to hang around with?

OT:I'd download every fighting style possible.
He is, very much so and I love him more than anything but he doesn't understand how upset I get over the little things he does. I think everyone is a bit shitty with their empathy. Like idiotic chavs who hurl abuse in the street, if they knew what it felt like, they wouldn't do it.
I think it's not so much a matter of knowing how it feels so much as knowing other people can feel it too.

But it's probably not so much your boyfriend lacking empathy, so much as him being clueless. There's a difference between not understanding why someone can be hurt and not understanding that they can feel hurt. Sorry if this is crazy off-topic, but I took an ethics class last year and this is giving me flashbacks. ...Are psychopaths morally responsible for their actions? No! Bad Ego!

Free running, dancing, painting, martial arts, fencing, chess, cooking.

Yes, that a long list. But really any of them would be excellent.

The ability to have short term memory loss whenever someone mentions the game... I would never lose.
DAMN YOU!
CURSE YOU TO HECK!

I would settle for simply downloading skill fixes and patches for skills I already posses but are operating at less than peak levels. My terrible seive like memory springs to mind, as does my grasp of language punctuation and grammar.

That being said im getting a very bad feeling about the idea of downloading skills to my brain, i think there fore at some point in the past I must have downloaded the 'premonition - I got a bad feeling' package, and then had to cover up the whole thing with a 'restore to factory settings patch'

To be honest what my brain could really use is a good defrag and memcheck.

quick edit - this post was by bigolbear, not miserable old git. (dang freinds using my pc again and not loggin out)

Advanced programming and electronics skills. They would be linked under Computing I would assume. With those I could build a robot army, funded by untraceably (yes it's not a word, but it should be. *rants* Alas I digress...) hacked bank accounts XD World domination awaits.
