Any talent you have that you wish you didn't?
Edited on Tue Jan-25-05 12:36 PM by Wat_Tyler
I just wish I wasn't so brilliant at everything. It really is such a drag. Why can't I suck at something?

8. No, I'm terribly humble.
If I wasn't, I'd be spamming the board advertising my genius. Which I don't, because I'm so humble.

29. I'm too fair minded
I've been told this by a couple of friends. We'll be sitting there bitching about somebody for half an hour, and then I'll interject some ameliorating fact which will start to guilt trip everybody else. Problem is, I never notice it just sort of happens.
