Theres more but its easy to think of things you haven't done, of all those, i'd definitely like to learn to drive, not so i can spend all my time travelling stuck in traffic jams, no, i'd like to take one out for a spin on a real race/rally track.

Manskills. lol....


I dont think tatoos are a manskill, unless it's one you got from being in a biker gang or the military. Like in Sons of Anarchy when they burned that guy's tattoo off lol.

I've only been in a casino once and I only played on the machines with the old ladies. They are creepy places IMO.

Thats the other major manskill I'm lacking, I dont know how to play poker :(
