What is something you enjoy doing but suck at?
Vidya games!
Specifically, any games requiring “twitch” reflexes. I love ‘em, but I do not have the genetic material to master them.
I was the opposite, hated games that required patience, now I'm like you, I used to full focus play games, now I multitask and watch tv, wonder if that changed it
Video games. I play a lot of them, and I suck at all of them, but I’ll be damned if I don’t enjoy them.
no shame in switching to easy. I personally don't have the time to "git good" but I do enjoy me a good story
Singing & drawing. I do also try to do things I am not naturally good at on purpose, because I am not good at them, though I wouldn't say I enjoy those things. Ended up enjoying gardening that way, cooking, dancing, and am good at those now, and enjoy them. Spanish, any language except English I suck but keep trying.
Sleeping. Being happy.
Dancing. I did go to a party last week with a DJ and danced my ass off anyway.
Running. I'm slow and can't run particularly far for how long I've been doing it.
singing. i don't really suck at it that much; I'm not tone deaf. but i just have an annoying voice.
Chess. It's taken me a few years to climb from 400 to 800 elo (1100 on lichess). Then I see comments from people who say "I got to 1000 after I learned how the pieces move" and it's so demoralizing
Drawing. I like doing it, but my stick figures look rather ill.
Sewing, mending, repairing clothes. I am really bad at it. Also knitting. I will never be able to understand wtf I am seeing.
Playing guitar. Strum (no, wait), strum (no, wait), etc.
RTS games.
Same. I don't like playing RTS games the good way. I just like building a cozy little camp and defending it, slowly exploring the map and just building whatever units I feel like building. I enjoy games like Age of Empires and Beyond All Reason because the maps tend to be quite large and random. It usually takes a while before I get overwhelmed if I'm losing I those games, and if I'm winning I can spend a lot of time just messing around without the game being over.
Games like Starcraft or Warcraft seem to be built too much for quick games where you have to be constantly moving. Expansion locations are very determined and scarce and resources run out way too fast to just turtle in my little corner.
Snooker
Snooker is so ridiculously difficult. If I knock in a 9 break (red, black, red) I am so proud of myself. And yet I have played against guys who will knock in a 60 or 70 like it's nothing.
Yeah... 60/70 like it's nothing? That's nearly pro level. I play with a friend, he sucks just a tiny bit less than I do 🤣
Music.
I'm a shitty musician, but I love it. Guitar, keyboard, clarinet, I love playing.
