I fail at controlling my forehead sweat. Seriously, as soon as I get on a train/public transport I get profuse forehead sweat. I realise this maybe psychological, but explain that to my forehead. My forehead is a stupid idiot.

OMG, I'm exactly the same and when I leave in the mornings to catch the train, it gets worse. I blame it on having a shower just before I leave the house though.

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.

3D films will become the norm' soon though

Lots of water ftw .

(Well, I just peel them under running water, and have no issues).

I do this, but always end up removing chunks of egg white. Maybe I'm just too heavy handed.

The alphabet, if I practice for a couple of days I'm fine for a while but other wise I'll forget, and also spelling, grammar, basically me and words/letters just gel very well and it isn't through lack of trying.

Oddly enough I can do the BSL alphabet fine.

Saying parallelogram (infact most Scots do), purple curly wurly and a million. Or so am told.

It did take me over two weeks to say parallelogram, to much hilarity of my work mates.

typing as most people in the pc game section can attest to.

It annoys me far more that people complain about other peoples use of spelling than the spellers themselves; I mean come on, get off your high horse.

I generally fail at life.

The thread title is 'Simple things you fail at'

, trust me, I was temped to put that also, but life imo is not simple.

Ooh, just recalled - I fail at political correctness. I couldn't tell you the amount of times I've said something I consider hilarious, only to realise a few seconds later that it could be extremely offensive to somewhat of my present company. I blame the mates I grew up with, personally, they're no better now.

Pronouncing 's'. thhhhhhhhhhhhh

I had to go to speech therapy for quite a bit when I was a nipper cause I couldn't pronounce 'S' or 'R' sounds. They sorted it right out.

Not talking too fast and then having to repeat myself.

Mahnsikir · 24 Jul 2010 at 14:15

Ironing, just can't do it properly.

One of the best things to fail at really.

Oh and I tend to mumble in casual conversations until my brain kicks in and tells me to speak properly.

buying things on things I dont really need. Need to think about some savings...
