    Find a job I like - every knick-knack paddy wack jack-ass with piercings all over their face and tats literally everywhere and can't even fill out a job application will get hired with NO EXPERIENCE, and I'll be told - don't call me, I'll call you. I can only get a job where I clean up behind every dirty ass in the world while I'm supposed to SMILE AND LIKE IT. :D
    AND in that same vein...I've been to stores where ppl are rude, arrogant (I'm talking Dollar General here now) and just plain lazy sorry asses and when I've asked nicely if they have any apps, they say...we're not hiring now.

    I can play the piano (and sing) well - as long as NOBODY (but my deaf mother) is around - or my son or brother can be here, but must be in another room where I can't see them. Then you have pretty little Taylor Swift worth a gazillion dollars that can't sing on key for the world. No stage fright there. LOL Did anybody hear her (TRY to) sing the duet with Stevie Nicks?...the look Nicks gave her was priceless.

    I ALWAYS get the absolute worse letters in doubles and triples when I play scrabble when everybody else gets the best letters.

    I loathe and despise housework, and can always find at least a billion things I need to do instead...and then I'm terribly embarrassed when ppl "drop by".

    I hate for ppl to just drop by.

    do shots (just CANNOT swallow a shot of liquor, i'm a fairly good drinker otherwise. i'll do a shot, but i have to hold it in my mouth and swallow it over time)

    START a conversation with a stranger or lesser-known acquaintance (continuing a conversation is fine, so long as someone else starts it, once the preliminaries are out the way, i just have no idea what to say, but if the other person gets things rolling, we're all good.)

    i forget people's names literally before the end of the sentence in which they told me their name

    Care.

    Seriously, I don't care. People around me are so nice and caring, but I fake it mostly. I act like I love people and their babies and their families and them in general, but honestly, if they walked outta my life tomorrow or fell off a cliff, I wouldn't give a shit.

    I also can't get excited. I have small spurts of excitement, but there is really nothing I TRULY look forward to at all.

    Oh, and the embarrassing one...due to the dyslexia, I have a hard time reading analog clocks. I can read them, but it takes me longer, thus making me look like a total tard.

    "Things you can't do but everyone else seems to have no problem with."


    Math... It's not that everybody is great at mathematics, but I go brain dead when people start asking me to solve even the simplest equations. I can figure out things if I can relate them to visual geometry though. Otherwise I'm needing a calculator.

    you people that remember faces but not names, or names but not faces are lucky. i can't remember either.

    it really sucks when someone starts talking to you about the old days and you don't remember ever seeing them or even having heard their name before.

    I am the WORST liar, I just can't help but smile. I better for it, whatever.
    I can't tie shoes without using bunny ears very well, they always come out too loose.

    Pretty sure I have everything else under control, I just wish I could be THE BEST at SOMETHING.

    I am the same way. I spend the rest of the conversation trying to think of a way to ask the name again, so I miss the conversation too. :eek:

    i agree with autophobe2e and Spectacles, it's impossible for me to remember names too... :D
    i also can't fall asleep in a car or any other moving vehicle...
    i can't keep my room tidy.
    i can't start studying or writing essays until i absolutely have to... which sucks..

    I'm bad at telling the truth. I can lie, but I act so nervous when falsely accused

    I can't be super sugary sweet to people that don't deserve it. Makes life tough when you're in customer service. I wish I could be fake, but I just CAN"T!

    Oh, for the people that forget names easily, I find that repeating their name right away after they tell you helps a lot.

    I can't not wear down my shoes. I mean I can buy a really expensive pair and after a couple of months they'll be worn through. No-one I know seems to get that. They've been wearing the same shoes for years. What am I doing wrong?
