I can also fold my tongue into crazy shapes, including a three-leaf-clover shape (and I can touch my nose with it too). And I can raise one eyebrow and wiggle my ears. Not all at the same time |
You made me try, to one-up the "not at the same time"part, but sure enough... Can only wiggle the opposite ear while raising one eyebrow. Cool. Though I wonder if practice could fix that.

Bli Ayin Hara I can walk into a party or wedding, having spent max $200, on my clothing and shoes, head to toe (not including Sheitel), and have people telling me over and over that I look like I bought expensive couture clothing.

I walk into Simchas, having spent almost $0!!!
I wear outfits from thrift shops. Shoes from 2 years ago (so technically it's free at this point), sheitel was cheap, and is old. It is redone by yours truly- myself. No real jewelry (as a Matter of fact, no jewelry, besides for fake earrings and a watch).
Sorry, I do wear my wedding band.
Though my wardrobe cost nearly zilch, (for lack of means to buy new stuff), but...
Am I worth 0 because of that???
Absolutely not. I look like queen Esther!
My sheitel is done pretty by myself. I put on (cheap) makeup.
My smile is always on and radiates the hall. I seem to always be upbeat and positive (that's what I'm being told)... I love to compliment, where it's due.
People constantly say, regardless of what you're going through, you always look happy and light up people's hearts.

I speak fluent Academese. Between that and my google-fu, I can turn any half-baked opinion into something that would earn at least a B+ in just minutes.
(Proponents of the neural network theory may hesitate to refer to academic English as a distinct language. In this work, we will follow the boundary construction theory, and focus on the locus of language acquisition rather than historical linguistic development. In this corpus, academic English (henceforth "academese"), due to its unique vocabulary and grammatical style, is considered not merely a written form of an existing language, but rather, an entirely separate dialect.)

I have yet to find someone who doesn't have something likable in them. I can find out what is good in them, even if it is really deeply hidden. The trick is to believe it's there in the first place.
I can taste something once, and replicate it perfectly. Maybe not with the exact same ingredients, but so close that you wouldn't know in a taste test. This has ruined restaurants for me, because every time I eat out and order something new, I can go home and make it for much cheaper. I'm always on the lookout for new foods.
I design Steampunk jewelry, and I have won awards for some of my designs.

I live in a popular vacation destination. If you bring me one of each I will happily host you for shabbos meals if you come here on vacation. And I'm a pretty great cook too, but baking is not my thing (besides my amazing challah)

I can adjust the pressure inside my ears by clicking my ears which seems to control some kind of valve. (not sure how to explain it). I use it whenever I'm in a car, airplane, or if it's just getting too loud around me and I need a bit of a break (while the valve is open I hear a little less). It's not as good as earplugs but still helps.
