    What are some ridiculously common things that you aren't able to do?

    For example, I cannot ride a bike. Why? I never learnt how. I didn't spend the time to or ever use bikes. :( It's kinda embarrassing when I tell people.

    What about you guys?

    I can't swim. There's a reason for this, though. I suffered a lot of ear infections as a child, and the littlest amount of water that entered my ears caused irritation, which made me paranoid enough to opt out of my swimming lessons.

    I could probably learn how to now, since I grew out of said problems, but now I'm more embarrassed because of my age.

    I can't snap or whistle. I have no clue how you even begin to do those things.

    I can't do push-ups. At all. It isn't due to a lack of arm strength, I've proven that time and time again. We think it's due to some sort of problem with my right elbow joint, but we don't know anything for certain. I just look really stupid when I try and fail to do even one push-up.

    Well, I can't ride a bike well... This is because when I was younger I got lost in Singpore - some park - on a bicycle and my mum was furious (because she was scared for my safety) at me for getting lost and only managing to find my way back once it was dark. She placed a ban on my sister and I - a life ban that was eventually lifted - to never be able to ride a bicycle until she's dead.

    That's the reason why I can't cycle very well...

    I can't ride a bike either~I've tried for years, and years, but somehow, I'm still as good as a kid on training wheels! One of these days, I'll learn. Hopefully.

    Since the only way to get around in my hometown was water-travel, I never learned how to ride a bike.

    Also snapping & whistling are ridiculously easy, dunno what you guys are on about.

    I've always felt weird not being able to ride a bike, because it seemed like such a simple thing that most of my friends could do, but seems like quite a number of people in this thread can't do it either. Kind of surprised.

    Other than that.. I think that's the only common thing that I can't really do.

    I can't whistle. I can do all the other things y'all listed, but for some strange reason, whistling is beyond me xD

    Not really..? I can't whistle, but I'm working on it! I can make a sound that's like a kettle
    steaming XD A high pitched one... ha..ha..haha..

    As for snapping fingers, maybe it just wasn't meant to be ( ಠ益ಠ)
    Don't think there's anything else tbh. I did struggle with shoelaces when I was kid. VELCRO STRAPS FOREEVERRR!

    Exactly the same for me, for both of those things. </3 Yikes maybe I just have terrible hands or something.

    I can't swim well. I know how to float but as for doing the motions of swimming I look to obscure and look like I'm in need of help.

    I love riding bikes but when I first learned how to ride one, my father let me go down hill on my own and forgot how to use the breaks and literally landed head first on the back of his truck that was out on the side of the road. I was 11 when this happened.

    Hops on the "can't ride a bike" wagon and falls off.

    But yeah. Never really had any interest in riding a bike honestly, though it's embarrassing to tell people I don't know how.

    I can't snap either. </3 Oh well.

    To this day, I could never whistle. And I feel bad when I see other people do it all the time.

    I can't snap my fingers (Without breaking them), despite trying my oh-so-best to do so.

    I'm awesome at whistling though. My Dad taught me when I was very young. :P

    I can't ride a bike either. Unlike most of these reasons, I was just too lazy to learn. Still am. Probably never going to. Ever. EVER.

    But I am really bad at keeping my balance. Period. I could stand still, and I would probably find a way to fall over.
