I can bend my thumbs and pinkies FORWARD until they touch the wrist.

I can squeeze together the base of my thumb and the opposing pinkie until my hand is sort of cylindrical.

I'm very flexible -- I'm a musician.

My hair is thick. I can brush it forward over my face and then put my glasses on over my hair, like Cousin Itt.

These moves were great hits with the other kids in junior high.

[LynneSin]

32. Are you coming to my party - you better!

We want you there - nuff said!

[BeachBaby]

45. I'm trying, girl....I'm trying.

All dependent on the XH and whether he's taking our children that weekend (he would normally have them that weekend, but his job has a major deadline he has to meet).

I REALLY want to, and besides....Lost-in-NJ and I are already commiserating about contributing Coronas and limes to your soiree; so I'm planning it in hopes that I'm actually going.

FWIW, I love Delaware. Cheap cigarettes and one helluva senator. He's my hero. :)

[LynneSin]

55. There's only one problem - I don't do Coronas

You're in Delaware - gotta serve the local beer. But if you don't like it we'll run around the corner and get some Coronas

[TZ]

33. lol!

I was also thinking about the cherry stem thing (which sadly I cannot do)! I see all the naughty girls have all been attracted to this thread....:D

[Debi]

38. I thought my tying a cherry stem in a knot with my tongue was unique

until I came to DU and found out 1/2 the Loungers can also do it x(

Must cultivate new talent.....

[IntravenousDemilo]

39. I can bend my fingers back past 90 degrees. n/m

53. I sometimes dream the future.

No joke.

[blockhead]

56. I can lick my eyebrows.

[Cabcere]

58. I can wiggle my eyes back and forth really fast

I don't really know how to describe it here - you really have to see it, but maybe some DUers can do it too and know what I am talking about. :shrug: My band director in middle & high school could do it too, and he said his eye doctor told him that people who can do that just have control of some muscles that most people do not. :crazy: It's good for freaking people out sometimes, though.

Also, I used to be able to spit water from in between my two front teeth like a fountain...but unfortunately, years of orthodontic work have had a negative impact on my ability to do that. :( So sad - that was an awesome talent! (Especially in middle school, which was when I was at my peak.) ;)

I can burp at will, and on occasion I have been known to belch words and phrases (a skill that would probably be a lot more impressive/socially acceptable if I were a guy). One of my female friends can do it, too, and one night when we were out drinking with two of our male friends, we discovered that we (the girls) could do the whole belching-on-command thing, whereas the guys could not. :P Good times.

When I was younger and my parents would try to hide chocolate so my brother and I couldn't get at it, I would always, always find it, which made them mad. It's like I have a built-in chocolate sensor, or something, because no matter where they tried to hide it, I would find it. Every time.

I'm pretty sure there are other bizarre talents I could think of that I possess, but I'm going to stop for now. ;) :hi:
