If i remember correctly from a previous post you drew your avatar and that looks amazing so i would say your good at drawing ;)
Oh thanks,
but even people who draw don't usually believe they're good at it.
I'll draw something I think looks great at the time and literally three days later, it looks like crap and I'll get frustrated with it.

*Shreds drawing up in a dramatic fashion*
I suppose that's one Hollywood stereotype that might have a little truth to it...

Fire makes everything better, except toast, burnt toast sucks.

I'm good with explanation. I can put something together with only the rudimentary knowledge of it (Most History lessons, Movie Synopses, and most situations), and come quite close, if not, be on the spot for it.

I can play guitar and sing at the same time, which, coming from a friend of mine who can play guitar expertly (but can't sing at the same time... or at all:)), he considers that a big deal.

I have a vast knowledge of The Electric Light Orchestra, including most of everything Jeff Lynne has done with The Traveling Wilburys and beyond.

I know a lot about movies and some television shows, going far beyond the movie (The kind of stuff you'd pay high dollar for on a Blu-Ray, I probably know more than that disc, not bragging)

I think that's all I got.

You are good at it! And even if you weren't, all that matters is that you enjoy doing it.

OT: I'm a doodler myself. Nothing too professional, just the occasional funny sketch.

I'm really good at problem solving. Never panic, that's the fool's mistake in stressful situations.

Friendly as long as you stay friendly.

I'm told I can be scary. Even when I'm not trying to be. That's actually bad, hmm...

I dunno. Games, cooking, swimming, looking fashionable.

I'm awesome at sarcasm!

I can play the violin and rock out with my Bach[footnote]Music joke, FTW![/footnote] out! :D

Also, I'm learning the cello at the moment and I'm doing pretty good there.

I have a frighteningly accurate and expansive memory. Unfortunately, almost all of my knowledge is entirely useless stuff.
On the other hand, all of my friends consider me the trivia master when it comes to video games, films, comicbooks, cartoons, anime, manga, and even history and mythology. I'm like some kind of turbo-charged sponge when it comes to soaking up knowledge.
But actually applying any of it? That's the tricky part. Plus, as I said, it's mostly useless knowledge anyway.

RTS Map designer supreme, honestly I've spent more time on world builders than the actual games, its kinda sad really considering I've only ever finished one map and put it online

Also good at spotting people I know in a large crowd, whereas i can generally slip past many people without them noticing me

Also I play a mean game in COD:MW2, I was shit in COD4 but I'm completely awesome in the sequel

I've studied Performing Arts for the last 5 years, I can memorize my part of a script quicker than most, and I've been told I'm quite a good actor, I also did stand-up comedy for a while

I'm a pretty good engineer when it comes to tying together cross-disciplinary knowledge, and also at troubleshooting things that are broken. I'm also handy with an epee.

I would like to vouch that yes. Yes you are.

As for me? I'm a fair guitarist, I'm a decent enough writer, a competent actor, I'm absolutely amazing in bed, I'm not bad at writing songs and on a good day I'm a reasonable artist.

Two of the above are lies.

I've actually got a fair list here

Cooking*
Teaching*
Computers (principally hardware)
Construction (large and small scale)
applied "hard" sciences (physics in particular)
strong spatial visualization (really helpful when attempting to envision a 3d object from 2d plans or vice versa)
Affinity with nature, I'm particularly good at reading and communicating with animals, both domestic and wild*

*=non professional basis only, not even pseudo formal education in the subject

I am very good at improvising, both in the acting sense, and the literal sense. I am good at seeing things from multiple perspectives (although not so good at wording them).

I am somewhat similar, I could quote a film/book/series that I have not seen in years or even thought about in years without issue, but when it comes to actual important stuff? Average really.

I can come up with a witty response to almost any statement nearly instantaneously. I also have a sponge brain like Myndnix described, and I'm not a bad cook either.

Also, I can put cream cheese on a bagel so smooth, you can't even see the knife strokes.
