Depends on who you ask. In some circles that may be considered a useless talent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quantus Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 In the topic of hobbies, I have a lot of skills that are useless now but are one zombie-outbreak away from being awesome. This is everything from metalwrok (smithing, casting etc) to small scale livestock farming and from scratch bread-making to energy beam weapons out of junkyard parts (as soon as they start to rise, get your hands on as many microwave ovens as you can, thank me later...) Im working on getting usable metal from Ore right now. There are tons of these Primative Technology youtube channels, they are awesome 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rask Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 I can whistle, this could be a useful skill if not for its incredible annoyance for those around me. Perhaps it can be weaponized. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quantus Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 Likely that means you both have above average amounts of "Brown Fat" which converts stored energy directly to heat at the cell (rather than normal shiver-based heating). Some genomes that are adapted to cold climates see that trait (Siberian natives being the topic of the documentary I saw). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SingingMosaic Posted February 28, 2020 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 I can map sound. I'm nowhere near as sensitive as a computer, but before I knew much about waves and the shapes they made when drawn by programs, people used to toss different noises at me to see if I could describe them. According to them I've been pretty accurate. I still don't know much about them, but I know some now. Used to listen to Orcasound's hydrophone streams all the time. Anyway I digress. Who knows how something like this comes about? Sadly the information is rusty, but the skill never seems to be, I use it to echolocate now, so it's not wholly useless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snakenaps Posted February 29, 2020 Report Share Posted February 29, 2020 My friend is truly the one with all of the weird talents (jack-of-all-trades kinda fellow), and one of the most useless but wonderful skills he taught me is how to punch out a candle. Makes me feel like a firebender. I can also draw 30 horse heads in 5 minutes. A talent I developed in high school as a TA while grading. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truthless of Shinovar Posted March 1, 2020 Report Share Posted March 1, 2020 (edited) On the subject of fire, I can stick a match in my mouth and put it out, and stick a lighter in a closed fist and create a mini explosion out of the opening at the top.
