Some folks just don’t like to toot their own horn.
And I get it!
But still…it’s nice for people to brag every once in a while so we can get to know them better, don’t you think?
What are you good at but you don’t brag about very often?
AskReddit users spoke up.
1. Nice work!
“I got substitute teacher of the month out of the whole county.
Does that count?”
2. Southern cooking.
“I make a mean pot of beans, melt in your mouth greens, and kick-a** cornbread.
Bring your sweets, Supper and heart-blessing at my house, 6 PM, Southern standard time. “
3. I’m impressed.
“A game called Geometry Dash.
Second best in my country although that is not really impressive, which is why I don’t brag about it that much.”
4. Workin’ hard!
“I am consistently one of the two top loaders in the warehouse I currently work at.
I would also scan 10 percent of the daily volume at the last place I worked, and also won employee of the month in the first month of the first facility I worked for.
I like boxes.”
5. Good memory.
“It’s really stupid, but if you ever want anyone to remember your birthday, I’m your girl.
I get such a joy from wishing people a happy birthday. It’s like crack to me. I dunno.”
6. Good ear.
“I have a very well-developed musical ear.
I can point out just about any detail you can ask about if I hear it, and I can replicate most songs I hear on the piano.
Can’t really brag about it since I feel like it just comes out sounding pretentious.”
7. Baby whisperer.
“I’m really really good at soothing babies.
Getting them to calm down. Most of my friends don’t have kids.
But my wife remarks on it any time I get the chance. “
8. Wow.
“I am blind, and I’ve gotten really good at faking like I can see.
My eyes don’t look blind, and I can make eye contact and have great spacial orientation.
Can’t brag about it, because a lot of people think I’m faking.”
9. You’re a genius.
“I never have a watch on me and don’t really look at my phone much… but I can always tell the exact time of day within about five minutes every single time.
In all my years of people asking what time it is not even my close friends have noticed that I can do it without looking at a phone/clock/watch, I just know it in my head.
Other than that I’m helplessly stupid.”
10. Yes!
“I’ve vomited (from sickness) in 5 out of the 7 continents.
It’s my proudest achievement.
I’m not sure if that makes my life uneventful or my accomplishment is amazing… Probably the former”
11. Hero.
“Saved an old lady’s life who was standing at the train tracks paralysed like a deer in headlights. Threw my bag off, ran across the bridge and pulled her off.
Felt pretty good that entire week and my friends were super proud of me, even though a few family members (whom I later narrated the incident to) felt I risked my life for it.
Can promise this never comes up in conversations.”
12. Just like Steve McQueen.
“I’m a really skilled driver, of pretty much anything on four wheels.
Race track, drifting, snow, mud, quads, race cars, trucks, buggies, jeeps, I’m just good at it.
None of my friends like cars or spirited driving, so it doesn’t come up.”
13. Multi-talented.
“I’m pretty good at making random edible things such as mozzarella cheese, apple butter, and chive blossom vinegar.
I have some other kinda notable achievements so if I’m ever introduced to others it’s always about how I cycled across Canada or a few other things like that. I’m equally proud of my apple butter making though!
Also my sense of direction, I can’t remember ever being truly lost.”
