being able to inspect/ appraise any item and get comprehensive details about it.
it would be great to spot antiques and famous works from garage/ lawn sales.
Ha! I'm imagining a DC comic book about "appraisal man"!!
Math, specifically gambling.
My first thought was also languages, but all the classes for a bachelors in nuclear engineering would be nice. Huge passion of mine and I can't really pursue a degree at this point in my life
How to speak Japanese. I'd move there in a heartbeat.
How to fluently speak a foreign language. I'm A2 with French but I could live with Spanish or German as well.
Auto maintenance and repair
OR
household maintenance and repair; handyman stuff
Ability to fold a fitted sheet.
Poke your hand until you hit the corner of a seam. Do the same with the other hand on an adjacent corner.
Bring hands together so both corners touch.
Now unfold the corner in one hand onto the other hand.
Smooth it out. Repeat with the untouched corners.
You can do it one more time or just fold from there
Playing the piano and other instruments like a master. Music conveys feelings we can’t convey otherwise.
How to people.
I have great ideas and am horrible at explaining them.
Rizz download complete
I wanted to say how to happy, but I think how to people would fix that as well.
The ability to upload any ability into my mind that I can think of and be amazing at it.
Shashahshaaa!
Runs away and throws pocket sand
I'd love to know how to dance, I mean really properly dance for every situation, not just a generic two foot shuffle. I've seen some people who can dance properly and they looked cool as fuck.
You can dance if you want to!
we can leave your friends behind!
I do, and I love it! But I also need to face the fact that I'm not very good at it 😁
Polyglotism. Being able to speak every language would be practically a superpower.
I'd make tens of dollars as the scholar to decode the Harrapan/Indus Valley script!
Or I make makes millions as a YouTuber decoding the Voynich manuscript...
Our society is broken:(
This is a neat idea until you're in a situation where you remember 38 different words for a thing, just not the one in the language you need
I only speak one language fluently and one language extremely poorly.
The number of times I’ve been able to come up with the word I want in my second language and completely blanked on it in my native language baffles my mind.
If I could 'cheat' and say 'I know every language in the world', and that included programming languages and things like scientific notation as a language, I'd take that in a heartbeat. If not, I'd take programming, as at least then I can create things and make money.
If speaking every language included dead and forgotten languages too though, then it would be a very tough choice.
This sounds very useful until you realize you still don't want to talk to people in any language.
If it was just one language and writing system as a choice, I might say Japanese.
There are so many different characters in their writing as symbols instead of phonetic sounds, that bookstores in Japan are divided into sections, in which one has books that use... say 500 characters, then another section with books that use 1200 characters, or 5000, or 10,000, or more!
To read Japanese or Chinese with a mastery of over 10,000 symbols might be my choice. The richness and depth of those writings must be something incredible.
My second choice, for shits 'n' giggles, might be something like Sumerian or Akkadian, in the original Cuneiform!
I can't even imagine how powerful I would be if I could be ignored in every language.
The rpg munchkin in me hopes polyglot misleading includes computer languages.
I did Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for a while untill after the 3rd injury I realised this isn't going to be good on the long run and I stopped doing it. However, it was long enough to see what a magical power that is so I'd say that being able to posses the skills of a black belt without going thru the training would be quite nice.
People don't realise how helpless you'll feel trying to wrestle with someone who knows what they're doing. Being bigger and stronger will not save you unless you get really lucky.
Tell me it doesn't use alien DNA like In Prey (2017)
Musical ability — perfect pitch, great rhythm. I'm an okay musician after years working at it, but I'd love to be better.
"I know how to make myself do the thing I planned to do."
Kung Fu
Sex probably
Psychotherapy
"he's been going all night, he's a machine!"
"....I know healthy emotion regulation"
"...show me"
maths.
I never had enough brains to not suck at maths.
Skateboarding. Looks so fun
The ability not to forget all things when I grow older.
Deduction, at superhuman speed of course just like neos kung fu speed.
Deduce the optimal stock market traction to gain a big chunk of capital so I can than deduce the best proper services to provide, or find the proper projects
Mind control.
The ability to sew anything. I love to binge sewing vids so being able to take some scraps and make cool shit would be amazing.
"I know how to understand and speak every language with the proper accent. Wöáh."
Psychology.
I assume psychology is very useful for social interaction, but complicated and mid-impact enough that I personally wouldn't bother to analog-learn it.
Knowing every tree, plant, insect, ...
Yeah, Billy 780164 as I like to call him, is an ant living in the basement in a swedish suburb near the sea, just besides the grass Gras9534795.
That ability is known as Dave😁
:) not what I intended, but that would be cool too
