If you could be great at any one thing, what would it be? - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Grondar · 04-21-2003, 06:21 AM

If you could have exceptional talent/ability at any one thing, what would it be?

By exceptional I mean you are one of the best at it, and your ability performing "it" is above almost all others.

That being said, what would you like your "gifted ability/talent" to be, and why?

laughter · 04-21-2003, 06:36 AM

To be able to sing like a motherfucker.

The volume of Pavarotti, with a range between Thom Yorke and Barry White.

CSflim · 04-21-2003, 06:40 AM

I wish, simply to be able to expess myself. In any form. Unfortunatly, I am not talented in writing, painting, song-writing....etc.
I would wish for some talent that would allow me to express what is inside of me.

Fly · 04-21-2003, 06:44 AM

whatta ya' mean "IF" i could be great.

I "AM" great

hehehehe

i just wanna be a decent dad to my kids.

Somenosuke · 04-21-2003, 06:50 AM

Healing. I like to be helpful to people, and make them feel better. That's just part of who I am. But that's what I wish I could be exceptional at.

b e n t · 04-21-2003, 06:59 AM

If I could be great any anything I would want to be the highest drug dealer possible, so high in the world that all I do is sit on my fat ass while the lower cartels battle out for competition of who runs what. Meanwhile, I run all of the cartels and noone knows I exist, I just collect the money.

Jesus Pimp · 04-21-2003, 07:04 AM

I always wish I had the ability to turn invisible and walk through walls.

Ciall · 04-21-2003, 07:22 AM

i would like to be able to get laid better than anyone else in the world.

Troublebot · 04-21-2003, 07:27 AM

I wish I was one of those people who have no problem staying awake on the road, but I think this is 'cause I'm driving across the state for a business meeting later on today.

I wouldn't mind being the world's best drummer.

Bob Biter · 04-21-2003, 07:45 AM

Best skateboarder, mostly because I can't skateboard for shit.

nine · 04-21-2003, 08:00 AM

When I was a kid I always wanted to do that thing that IceMan does in TopGun where he twirls the pen round in one hand through his fiingers.

I practiced and practiced and learnt to do it.

So now I'm content

Nad Adam · 04-21-2003, 08:05 AM

Speak, I'd like to be great at speaking.

phunktastic · 04-21-2003, 08:09 AM

I'd like to be great at manipulating people. It'd be fun, and if I was the best at it, nobody would notice. Actually thats kinda creepy. I'd just like to be great at playing music

zf0enix · 04-21-2003, 08:34 AM

Fantasy life: Telekinesis, or the Jedi mind trick. Either one would be the shit!

Real life: I'd like to be great at strategy/decision making. To be able to analyze choices and choose the best one, on the fly. Cool.

degrawj · 04-21-2003, 08:41 AM

Well, since I'm trying to make a career out of it, I'd have to say singing. But hopfully I'm already 'great' at that.

oane · 04-21-2003, 09:33 AM

Grondar..If there is one thing I wish I was bestest at, it would be at mind-control.

Control of my own mind, that is. To be able to do anything, with total immersion.

Maybe be able to attrack woman better.
