Re: Your secret talent
I have an almost photographic knowledge of the thousands of hours of crap TV I have watched!Loud&Clear wrote:So everyone can do at least one thing better than anyone else. So what is it that you do better than anyone else in the world?
I'll start: I'm a great whistler (lol). I can whistle the x-files theme song, one of "the good the bad and the ugly" songs, that song about "the bright side of life", "don't worry, be happy" and many others. My friends are constantly asking me to whistle these songs.
So what about you?
Its kind of freaky, in that this super memory only applies to stuff I watch on tv (if only it worked for everything else). At one point, in college, I could tell what show was on by a simple half second snippet. It used to drive my flatmates mental as I could channel surf incredibly quickly.
One of the most notable instances of my useless super power occurred when a friend of mine was channel hopping and saw the Airwolf helicopter flying around and got all excited. Unfortunately I had to rain on his parade by pointing out to him that it wasn't the real Airwolf but the crap Canadian version of Airwolf, which starred one of Dick Van Dyke's sons!
The weird thing is that to this day, I still don't remember every actually watching an episode of "Crap Canadian Airwolf".
