What's a skill you've always wanted to have? Nothing out of the realm of possibility, of course, just something that any person could ever reasonably acquire with enough practice and/or talent.

I've always wanted to be able to properly make origami. Try as I might, I can't seem to really get it down. I've also always wanted to paint and draw, but I am, unfortunately, better at those than origami.

Krav Maga and lockpicking, though mostly because deep down I really want to be Sam Fisher.

I can neither draw nor origami, though I've never really tried the latter.

I wish I could play the saxophone, or something along those lines.

Draw, play the piano.

The skills to pay the bills.

Maybe anything musical.

Programming! And studying lol

Maintaining a healthy diet and drawing.

Speaking fluent Spanish is my goal right now.

I would like to lockpick.
I would also like to be able to pick up women.

It's difficult to pick up women when you don't have arms, buddy.

lockpicking women is actually pretty easy
finger in

Bahaha! Donfuy wins.

I think skydiving like a boss would be pretty bitchin.

I would like to be able to regenerate limbs, too. But I don't think this is classified as a "talent", more of a "power".

Another talent I would like is being able to write good, in-depth novels.

Animating.

do a backflip

I've always looked at parkour/freerunning videos on youtube and thought, o shiz I wish I could do that. Nothing useful in real life, but hey, at least I'd get some heads to turn.

CoffeeFreak, I'd say your own head would be turning enough as it is doing that stuff, never mind other people's!

I have to say some kind of musical instrument would be great... preferably guitar/bass or piano. Or maybe the saxophone! Other than that, meh. Maybe being able to maintain a proper diet and exercise? I may be much more confident with myself, my personality, and being around people than I was a few years ago, but I'm still chubbers and that's always ingrained into my psyche...

Skateboarding. I spent a lot of time trying to learn and never got anywhere. I managed an ollie, once.

I also used to wish I were normal, that I had been born -without- any particular mathematical ability -- but I got over it eventually.

Being able to completely humiliate someone on the chessboard.
I mean, like instant Scholar's Mate.
