A user asked the forum, “What are you better at than 99% of people?”. Here are some responses he got!
FORGETTING NAMES ON CONTACT

TOP AT PLAYING BASS GUITAR

SLEEPING

PLAYING THE PIANO
“Playing the piano. I’m dead average, but I’m sure 80 million different people can’t play better than me.”
BEING OVERLY BLUNT
“Being overly blunt when people want real harsh advice instead of validation. My friends are legit. They tell me they come to me because I am honest and will call them back to earth when they are delusionally stupid or making a problem out of nothing. To this day, I don’t know if I should take it as a compliment or not.”
