Walking into an argument between two (or more) other people and saying something that feels totally measured and rational that ends up pissing off both sides and making them all come together in being pissed at me instead.
I market it as "I'm a uniter!", but 85% of the time I have no idea how it happened and it's completely on accident.
Only a double handful of people have ever heard it (and known it was me), but I do a passable kargyra, the deep version of tuvan throat singing. Watched Genghis Blues many years ago and tried to do it. Surprisingly, I got it after maybe ten minutes of trying. I can do the other forms as well, but not quite as reliably.
It's strangely satisfying to do. But it's some I really only do for my own pleasure, so it's rare for me to do it when other people are around because they get all curious about it, which ends up as an interruption.
However! I did do a song with a band where I did it on a self written verse. Local band, they do their own records and such. But I did two songs with them, that one where I did the kargyra and the chorus in metal growl, then another with just the growl.
So, people have heard it, but don't realize that it's me. I'm credited as "background vocals" (under my real name, so I can't/don't disclose the band lol). They've sold maybe a thousand discs and downloads of that album total.
They usually play my part as a recorded track at shows (the one with the kargyra is a highly requested track among their tiny fan base), but they did a local show a little while ago and my buddy that fronts the band called in a favor I owed him to get me to do both at the show. So I got all dressed up in black, braided my beard, did corpse paint, and wore a fucking cowl and did it!
I hate crowds. PTSD and such. But it was almost fun okay, the performing was fun, but I was kinda shaking by the end of the night from too many people. I dunno if anyone was fooled (im kinda distinctive looking overall), but nobody has said anything if they weren't.
It's so hidden I'm still trying to find it.
I can do a fairly convincing Wookie call.
Learning probably. my parents and everyone always thought i studied hard on my room for school to have such good grades and now later at work. actually I just seem to learn pretty fast i guess. 99% of the time it only takes one explaining or showing me one time how it is done and i basicly never forget it.
I used to be really good at balancing while leaning backwards on a chair, I could go for minutes at a time.
Related talent, I can infinite wheelie a wheelchair, spin, move around quickly with ease, etc ... both my legs work well at the moment so most people will never find that out about me!
I can genuinely point to Jupiter, any time, day or night. I may need to get my bearings for NSEW but assuming I have any point of reference I can just point at Jupiter. It is my favourite planet and since I was a kid I was a little obsessed and figured it out, now it just runs in the background like a little JPS (Jupiter Positioning System) all the time.
I'm strangely good at wiggling my nostrils, way better than anyone else I've met. No luck wiggling my ears though.
I can usually figure out North pretty quickly and I will retain that knowledge for the given area for a long time.
Not too sure how special that is, but here we go.
I can always tell when someone needs to poop.
…not really, but that would have been one hell of a hidden talent.
