You know it, everyone around you knows you're good at it. You're so good at it your expertise is unquestioned. At least by the relative/pet/plant that loves you most.

What do you do well?

I'm easy. I write well. My handwriting is very neat, particularly in Korean. My teachers have told me I write like a computer. But only in print. I write in cursive like a second grader. Blech.

I also bake a good cheesecake. I call it the DietKiller.

My finest quality is that I always sound like I know exactly what I'm talking about and doing, even when I have no fucking idea and am probably dead wrong. It's the vocabulary and my extrapolative abilities.

I can also eat an entire large cheese lovers pizza by myself, but I don't count that as a talent.

Being easy is your talent? You pride yourself in that? Maybe the truth behind your husband isn't that he's nuts and locked away in a mental hospital, but instead he left you since you're an easy piece of white trash?
 
I'm an excellent stage bitch:D Whenever I get cast in those roles I tend to kick ass. I'm not at all bitchy in RL, in fact quite the opposite, so I'm not sure why that is ..

I can bake things that would bring a grown man to his knees.

I'm pretty handy with a chainsaw

and you'd want me on your team when playing Trivial Pursuit. I'm a bank of useless trivia I'm afraid!
 
i'm good with computers.. i catch on well and can do lots of different things with them. most people dont expect me to know much because i ask for help when i dont know, and cuz i dont go out of my way to flaunt what i do know.
 
I seem to be pretty good at teaching kids about history.

Once upon a time I was pretty good as a safety director (hence the nick).

Finally, I haven't had many complaints about my abilities as a cybering partner :p
 
I'm good at drawing, and makeing up stories (though i've yet to end one lol just that damn good)

I use to be a good dancer, I use to be a good singer, but a teacher told me one too many times i was good so i quite (i don't take complements well)

and there has yet to be a puzzel (besides rubix) to stump me yet.
 
What am I good at?

I am very good at making people feel at ease around me. I can make complete strangers in my home or at a party feel comfortable and welcomed.

I am good at sharing myself. Being totally open and honest and thus, making the people around me feel free to share themselves.

I am good at being open to other's opinions and thoughts. I don't feel the need to pull them around to my way of thinking.

I am an excellent cook. I can follow any recipe or make one up as I go. I know by smell which herbs will go together to create a wonderful taste in your mouth. Here is an example of a salad of mine that people always ask the recipe for:

Baby spinach
Tomatoes (only garden or vine ripened)
Avocados (if in season)
Red onion (chopped fine)
Gorgonzola cheese (crumbled)
Sugared Pecans (I'll tell you how to make them if you want to know)
Balsamic vinaigrette

The sweetness of the sugared pecans balances the overall tartness of this salad.

Toss and drive your guests wild!

Let's see...

I'm really good with details.

I'm good at worrying.

I'm a great friend to have.

I'm really good at needlework.

and...

I'm good at being a pain in the ass. :p
 
I can write well, especially making technical stuff simple.

I can write and test software fairly well too.

I tend to be to analyze problems fairly well.

I am good with mechanical stuff.

I can handle myself well in emergency situations.
 
I'm a really good teacher.

I throw the best kid's birthday parties in the world.

I make kick-ass cioppino, absolutely incredible paella, and am the Queen of hors d'Oeuvres.

People in all parts of my life are constantly opening up to me about some pretty personal stuff, so either i come across as trustworthy or sympathetic.

Finally, i am on time. I don't make people wait for me, i don't figure that ten AM means sometime in the vicinity of ten AM, give or take a half hour or so. Of course, my being on time all the time no matter what, and making myself and anyone with me crazy if i'm running late, well, that could just be edging into a full-blown compulsion so maybe i'd better ease it off my list.


(Grechie? Don't be mean, darlin'. It's just unnecessary tonight, okay?)

Me too, cymbidia. I am almost compulsive about being on time. It bothers me if I am literally 2 minutes late, really.

I get along with almost anyone. If there is a person that is mad at the world I usually have them smiling by the end of our conversation. Dealing with the public that is almost a necessity.
I am great with my hands and can fix most things that I take apart.
I am a great friend and I really care about people. I will help anyone if it is in my power to do so.
 
I'm a nerd, so all things technical are understood to a degree. I can fix a car, rewire a light, figure out WHY your computer isn't working, and beat Windows to a pulp until it runs.

I can't run, I can't fight, I can't be the jock type of person.

I'm a lover, a romantic, someone who will write poetry, rub your feet, and make love to you all night long, just so he can hold you close and watch the sunrise.

Yup. I'm single. *sighs*
 
What am I good at?

Well, I like to think I can type good for one....gotten many a complemint on that. I can sing pretty good too.....and not just in the shower either..:D

I pretty sure I'm good at role playing too. Have been doin that for almost 10 years now......so I think I got that covered
 
I can drink 2 cans of Mountain Dew in 24 seconds. I'm smart enough to regret doing said chugging. I'm good at ninjitsu. And I can bend any normal mortal over a sink in regards to pointless trivia.
 
in a crunch, when everything is on the line and you need a pharmacist who can run the gamut from assessing the therapy to calculating the dose to mixing the iv to getting it in the computer and off to the floor in record time, then i'm your girl

i don't fuck up when it counts most not to fuck up, and i never forget that there's a patient at the end of everything i do

now, aside from that (which is what i do for a living), what i REALLY do best is write...i write in a dream and it's so much fun because i don't even try to lay out the plot ahead of time any more...it's so much better to just get into it and follow it along because there's the excitement of not knowing exactly how it's going to end

it's like reading a book, only better

okay, okay...aside from even that, i'm a pretty good mom too...in fact, at the risk of being immodest, i'm the best mom my kid has
 
Goods ....

I have a good sense of humor & make any one around me feel comfortable.:)
I am a good roomate ... I always have my half of the rent & bills ready ahead of time.
I am a good cook , I can cook any thing just by looking & paying attention.
I am a good friend, I can always be counted on & I am there to lend a helping hand.
I am a good writer... and enjoy writing.
I am excellent with kids ...
I am an amazing driver * drive it like you stole it * Vrooooom...
I am good @ staying calm under stressful situations.
I am good @ getting myself out of trouble... I can get out of any speeding ticket simply by talking my way out of it.


I am a good kisser .. been told by all I have kissed * shy smile*
 
What am I good at?

I'm very good at math, something that people have envied since I was in the 4th grade.

I'm good with kids. I know how to keep them in line, and I know how to keep them happy when doing it.

I'm good with other people. I'm a natural conversationalist(if that's a word).

I'm also a very good kisser(at least that's what everyone I've kissed has told me). And after the reactions of my boyfriend, apparently, I give great head, too ;).

But what I'm most proud of is the fact I'm good at winning an argument, even when I know I'm completely wrong. As long as I have some grasp on what I'm talking about, I will always win the argument. People don't even try me.
 
I'm an excellent shot. I won marksmanship contests two years running beating out over ninety other competitors and was recruited for the the U.S. Army shooting team.

I can drink a 16 oz. Coors in 3.2 seconds.

I won the State FFA Agronomy contest in 1979.

I'm an outstanding welder and machinist.

My dogs worship me.

I'm nice to my chickens.

I help old ladies cross the street.

I don't have toe fungus anymore.
 
I'm good with pessimism. That and gloomy thoughts. If someone is having a good day, the sun's out, everyone's smiling, etc..., I can have that person depressed in less than a minute.

Of course, the problem is I'm chronically depressed myself, but when your as good as I am, well, you expect less? :)
 
What am I good at...

Well, I have a flair for music; especially the violin. I've played since I was in like third grade. I'm can really perform well under pressure or when I'm rushed (which is all the time, I am the epitome of a procrastinator) and I've been told I can draw pretty good too.
 
I am good at keeping my word, believing in people and one other thing that hornygirl says I am good at (but not really sure about that). Thanks horny:p
 
goods

People have complimented me on many different things, but personally, I only claim to have two talents: Hugs and Massages.

I'm great at both ("You should be a masseuse" during every massage I've ever given), but you won't hear me claim to be good at anything else.

I figure those two are good enough to have ;) and I wouldn't want to be proven wrong about anything else!
