Simple things you fail at

I fail at ALL sport type activities that invole some form of ball.

I can't throw, kick, or hit a ball.

My attempt at swimming is pretty comical too.

But i'm pretty handy with a mountain bike oddly.
 
2 things spring to mind for me:

I can not (and I have tried countless times) 'tread water'. I just sink like a stone. I'm not the best swimmer but can get from A to B in a pool, river, etc, but trading water, just can't grasp the concepts at all.

English Language: Just can't grasp the full concept of "Been" and "Being". I type/write words as I say them in my head, my accent says it as "I've bin to the shop", "I've bin really busy today", "There's bin a delay on the Northern Line", "You're bin too noisy"

Just can't grasp it!
 
Baking sweet things, I always end up picking the wrong kind of sugar or unbalancing the mix enough to leave a curiously chewy layer over the top of brownies, or unexpected lumpy bits in butter icing.

USB ports big time, and plastic wrapping - games & cigarettes get me, especially since about one time in three I discard the finally-defeated wrapping on the carpet and end up nearly slipping and cracking my skull open. Moreso the packaging around small electronics and other things the manufacturers clearly don't want you to get in to. Normally I resort to scissors, but that just paves the way for plastic cuts.

Oh, and even though I'm pretty in to my games, I kinda suck at them. Not too good with figuring out puzzles, easily lost in anywhere that isn't a straight line, terrible coordination for rhythm games and paranoid, panicky & prone to fits in anything that requires accuracy - even moreso when it's coop and people are depending on me being even a little bit competent. I still have a lot of fun, though.
 
i fail at everything the first time now. :(
the 2nd time i can see the obvious mistake and sort it but i always have to look and then come back to it in 10 minutes. i spend so much of my current life being 'considerate' i would be a perfect bf but i take too long to decide its never gonna happen lol.

Catching. But I have a medical excuse (one eye).

Yeah I have 1 eye as well, so I'm a lost cause for playing pool as I can't see depth. We both also miss out on stereography vision (3D glasses). Having said that though, I know someone who saw the new Toy Story in 3D and he said that we aren't missing much.

A simple thing I also fail in is short term memory (or lack of it). To compensate, I have a good long term memory. Then again, you either have one or the other but rarely both.
 
Saying the word 'multiplication', no matter how I try it always comes out multiclipation, if I sound out each vowel slowly I can say it but never the whole word in one go :(
