Haha Same. I mentioned this elsewhere on here.
Her: Hello! Nice to meet you.
Me: Ihum inglom, too...
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."
For context, this is the previous verse:
"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

JK about the latter one.
Hmm, I dunno, feels like we're gonna need some proof of that.

Math
Talking to people
Relationships of any kind
Anything esthetic, charts, tabels, shit like that
Not being awkward. And backwards somersault, strangely enough, I'm the best at the front one.

Singing, drawing.
One thing I'm personally glad I suck at is social etiquette. Stupidly ritualized social interaction passed down from the morally reprehensible medieval nobility.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Which seems it would be a test for both listed reasons.

I'm really bad at estimating how long ago things happened. I'm also aware that I can feel an event happened both recently and a long time ago at the same time. This is disconcerting!
Drawing freehand. Absolutely useless. I'm worse than some young children at this. Both my brothers are good at this, one astoundingly so.
I'm bad at observation of details. I'm often in my own world and focused entirely on a train of thought, so I only vague notice what's going on around me. I've lived in houses for years and then realized I can't even tell someone what colour the walls are when I'm not in it.
I'm bad at disconnecting my thoughts from things. I get them going round in my head, and they can affect my concentration while doing other things.
I'm god awful at cooking. I'm not even safe to do it on my own now due to the risk of me leaving the oven on or something.
I'm bad at applying my own advice to myself, but I think that's kind of true of everyone. My recent therapy has turned out to actually be taking my own advice a lot of the time.

Everything math related and the logic that comes with it. I can wrap my mind around formulas. And, as Boru said, I suck at chess.

As I notice a lot of people mentioning maths, I'm happy to offer a little coaching on any particular area as this is my expertise
I used to teach and tutor in maths.
