What's your useless skill?

I know we’re all here for the LOLs, but just a quick reminder: it’s ok to enjoy things without being able to monetize them.
Very wise.

My SO identifies people by their teeth. Scary as f for me. Like a Zorro would have caught if he opened his mouth.

I did that for a while, and I’ll be exaggerating my uselessness but here goes.
“No, that can’t be him. See, the man who did the robbery was wearing a pair of pantyhose on his face. This guy has no such article of clothing on his face. His friend had on a ski mask, I don’t see a ski mask on this man’s face. Yeah, they’re wearing the same shoes but what about the face coverings, hmmmmm?”

Northernlion build his entire career of bering the good of trivia, so it is viable. But not as easy as some other careers to get started in
His general knowledge is insane. But what drew me in was his whit.

I can say the alphabet backwards, really fast. I also know all the digits of pi in ascending order

Ascending order? So like, 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9?

Don't give me the remote when watching a show on Prime. That X-Ray feature is dope.

I think recognizing a person by hearing them once would be useful as:
- spy
- bouncer
- detective
- headhunter
- diplomat
Also just for any kind of sales, honestly. I’m always surprised that regular customers at my bakery like being recognized, but they generally do. I was once in the Taco Bell drive through and the cashier asked me how I get my hair to grow so quickly (I grow it out until it’s long enough to donate, then chop it off and start anew), which implied a very long term recognition, so I stopped going to tb for a few months, because I hated the idea of being observed. I’m autistic and not especially social, though, so I can understand that I’m the outlier here.

My skill? Boring, I wanna talk about people with between zero and one lines on a show ages ago.
Teri Hatcher played a slut on the sitcom Night Court in the late eighties. That's unfair, she was a sex worker and sex work should not be illegal but I remember her as playing a slut.

That is the joke, yes.

Clearly you don't know how I clearly know this clearly isn't true? Well, it's simple, you didn't use the word clearly nearly enough.
Seriously, go to IMDb and look at any big TV series or movie then go to the goofs section and look for all the very smug 'clearly' remarks.
"The stunt man was clearly wearing a wig to make him look like a woman"..."watch the background to see that George Clooney was clearly not driving the car" etc etc.
And every single time the word brings nothing to the point being made. Nothing. It's just out there by the person to show how clever they are for spotting it.
'clearly' is IMDb's version of "well, ackchualllyyyy"You’re clearly overthinking this

Also the new Dad in Will Trent is Bob the Street Tough from Seinfeld.

I have facial blindness but I'm a super recognizer of voices.

I would be proud of being recognized at a local bakery, and similarly uncomfortable being recognized at a Taco Bell.

I think it's very context dependent.
Pharmacists often recognize me and I'd rather they didn't. But I get it. I'm there almost every week for something.
My favorite bubble tea place now recognizes the car I drive so they will prepare my tea as I'm parking and it's ready by the time I get to the counter. I did tell them that on occasion I'll order something different but I appreciated it nonetheless.

I kinda have both. I have to know if that cardassian holographic doctor was someone in scrubs. And why do I recognize the chicken from the chicken ad in Bojack horseman and how is it not Terry Crews?
Wasn't the cardassian holographic doctor on Doogie Howser?

IMDB used to have an amazing cross-search. You could put any combination of actor, crew, movie/show title and it would bring out common movies/shows.
