Ah, the vague, ever-broad, infinite assumptions of the word "things". Many of us are bad, not particularly good at, reasonably awful, etc...at something. Sometimes it's a great amount of incidents, skills, casual methods, and other fine life establishments that we lack. Regardless, this list is dedicated to them.

- Mathematics. I am one of those people who can do English, writing, history, art, theology, philosophy, and an assorted number of subjects. Unfortunately mathematics has never been my strongest point.
- Coming across the right way. Many social conversations in life could have gone very, very well if people didn't assume I was being mean, condescending, or outright apathetic to others.
- Getting into different subjects. Everytime I read something other than horror, fantasy, sci-fi, warfare, mythology, or anything that involves something other than an "out of the norm situation" which might or might nor involve a great battle at some point in time I become bored rather quickly.
- Seeing the fine details, subtle aspects of art. I am a literalist when it comes to poetry on occassions.
- Being empathetic towards ideas, decisions, and thoughts that I feel lack moral value.
- Not being racist. Working in retail, in a store in the South of America seems to have a bad effect on you. I am not racist in the "everyone who is this color is like this" standard but in the "I tend to notice these peope do more of this than these people" manner. Can't help it on some occassions. Applies to everybody as well, F'ing white-priveleged rich shitheads that...ahem, see?

This is all I can conjure for now. Next!

1. Making friends - I've been an asshole always will be.
2. Trying something new - Always been stuck to the one type of thing unless my mates try me on something
3. Managing to ace an interview - Jesus will I ever be good enough to wow an employer? XD

- Creativity. Well... I can come up with good ideas, I just can't develop them any further.
- Not being shy. It just comes naturally to me.
- Be determined. I get distracted easily. Ooh, shiny.

..For once, we seem similar on this topic Arsen. For once.

However, I'll switch out the final point with:

- Sports. Just.. sports.

expressing an opinion. unless It was outright bad or really awesome, when someone asks me an opinion on something, I would usually say "it's good/alright."

Any sort creative work using my hands. Painting, knitting, carpenting, you name it. Unless you count playing guitar.

I also suck at not being lazy. It's just a core part of my being I guess.

Math.
Being responsible. Seriously. I never bring a pencil to school, and frequently forget my homework.
Counter-Strike.
Milkshakes (you know, because there's a straw)
...and many more

Edit: I misremembered the title of the thread when I read it. Thought it said "suck" not "are bad at".

My lack of care to argue in the religion discussion is not based on having no argument, just not giving a darn when the "hostility" rises. Sorry, but it's on both sides of either argument down there and eventually spirals downwards into a "my opinion over your opinion" debate, which accomplishes nothing.

Reading Body Language. I have autism, it's pretty self-explanatory once you know what autism is.

Being confident/self assured. I doubt everything. Even if you've shown me a random corn cob and said: "This is corn!" I'd still be sceptical and go: "Suuuuuure."

I can't fill my face with my blood. I don't blush, if I did, my complexion would be normal because I'm so pale.

I suck so badly at drawing that my fourth grade art teacher 24 years ago thought I was mentally retarded because he only had my art to go on.

My people skills are somewhere between nil and negative. I work very well with animals and machines but cannot handle other human beings except in one-on-one friendly or intimate situations. Professionally, I'm beyond useless, which pretty much means I can forget about sales or management as a career. (which suits me just fine.)

My hands are too small and stubby to make me any good with musical instruments, although I played a mean jazz trumpet once upon a time.

I realize this, yes. Just pointing out it's nice to finally have similarities on something, that's all. Nothing more. *Shrug*

I cannot draw
I am a terrible writer
I'm terrible at football
Getting into arguments with people that just go completely off topic. I hate it, I'm not good at it and it's not relevant

-Sports
-Analyzing literature (what possessed me to take AP English?)
-Art
-Handwriting
-Maintaining my own opinion. If someone says something intelligent, I will probably swing to their side immediately, only to switch right back when someone else says intelligently says the opposite. Actually, most of my opinions aren't mine, and the one's that are, are close to meaningless.
-Maintaining my cool. I have very bad stage fright. This is why I don't want to play solos in music, preferring to support an ensemble as a whole. I have a feeling most job interviews will go rather poorly.
-Women, just women.
