That's hilarious to me because, partly because I suck at brevity,
I excel at list-making.

Indeed, I am obsessive-compulsive about listing.

I could probably win a contest.

I have literally found myself buried in drifts of paper, that are lists I have made.

It's very sad.

Recognizing a POE, troll, fake, fraud. I can't believe how gullible I am sometimes.

Making first impressions. People politely tell me I'm an acquired taste. Arrogant, asshole, diva, untrustworthy, intimidating, I get these a lot in the beginning.

you do a great job.

I do not suck at being gullible, either.  I excel at being gullible.

And all my life people have thought that I think I'm better than everyone else,
when it's usually the opposite.  I always think other people's opinions are worth more than my own,
simply because they belong to other people.  But I get the "arrogant" label, too.  Undecided

You follow the recipe and it doesn't work.
You ask an expert and they say, maybe the self-raising flour had a different amount of bicarbonate.
Maybe the oven was a little too high or low.
Maybe human error?
Like fuck!
I say, throw those fancy fucking stupid biscuit recipes in the bin.
Waste of time and product.
It drives me fucking crazy.
Anyone mentions gluten-free and I'm pulling the trigger.

Put the gun down, Lunch.

Tea biscuits are not worth it.

As a writer, I'm pretty embarrassed about this, which is why I try to work to improve my vocabulary constantly.

Which is the exact opposite of most of society is doing.  So kudos to you.

Funny you should mention that. There's a garden supply store here that recently put a sign out front: 'Cement Garden Curbing - Guaranteed Gluten-Free.'

Shyness. Fortunately the Internet plays on many of my Thought Proccesses, giving me the ability to revise every word I say. It also makes sure I speak at the same volume everyone else does, so no embarrassment after being asked "What did you Say?"

Sing or draw.

I suck dramatically at both.

Singing, spelling, and proofing.  I'm really good at getting absorbed and losing track of time though.   Tongue
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

Chatting up the opposite sex...if there happens to be anything beyond platonic/professional interest at play. The absolute best I can do is mumble incoherently or give one word responses. This leads interested males to  to conclude that I have no interest in them...or that I'm a lunatic.
