Simple things you fail at

Parallel parking when the space is on the passengers-side. On the drivers side...no problem...I can zip into a spot real quick and with supreme precision.

But when its on the other side.... :(
 
Walking down stairs.

Or more specifically, walking down stairs whilst holding things. I have to support myself with the rail/bannister otherwise I just can't do it. I'd just fall down the stairs.
 
Opening packets of Neurofen / Anadin / generic headache tables without opening the end with the 'instructions' in it.

You would have thought with a 50% chance of success I'd get it right at least once but it never happens.

I hate the instructions that come with headache tablets.

I believe I have the answer for you, choose the side without the expiry date on ;)
 
Giving directions to other people. I don't mentally note road names, location names or anything. I just 'know' where to go.

I'm the same... I have no idea what the roads are called around here.

Oh and my short term memory is rubbish.
 
Peeling oranges dont know why but i always mess it up or ruin the orange and get the juice every were or in my eye which isnt very nice.

I also suck at typing/spelling/grammer :(
 
I tend to write the wrong word or something on a piece of paper, then look stupidly at it thinking "control zee. Control zee". Sometimes I make the Ctrl+Z finger movement too :(
 
Sneezing without my arse letting go at the same time :D I put that down to old age though :o


Oh .... I nearly forgot ...

I tend to say the stupidist things at the wrong time ...

Me, "Hi, how are you?"
Them, "Terrible, my dad just died".
Me, "You're joking?"

Seriously, I've done this a couple of times and each time I just want to punch a hole in my own face for being such a knob!

I was a massive failure at talking to women for many many years.

Then something really strange happened, I hit 30 years old and all the fail just drained out of me.

I've struck up more decent conversations with attractive women-folk (the kind that used to make me wither away to a melting nothingness of 'meh' just a few years ago) in the last 7 or 8 months than I have in the last 10 years.

And with it comes the confidence, which self-perpetuates the whole thing.

I'm liking getting old :D

Anyway, I used to fail, but now don't. So I'm failing at failing at simple things.

Hah.
