50 sats \ 2 replies \ @kepford 10h \ on: What is the obscure skill at which you are ridiculously talented? AskSN
I am absurdly good at not watching whatever new show "everyone" is obsessed with. Granted, this actually doesn't happen much anymore but still. I think social pressure doesn't affect me in the ways it does others. Or maybe I just don't care.
I remember blowing people's minds when they found out I hadn't seen Breaking Bad. I have now, but no one cares now. Still haven't seen the Wire or The Sopranos. I'm sure they are fine shows. Just missed them and had no time or interest when they were coming out.
Talk about a useless talent.

I would get "You haven't seen x" so often that I started remembering to do this back to these people. I would mention some obscure show that I like that was cancelled after one season and act shocked that they hadn't seen it.

I remember going out to dinner with clients and our consulting team and they were all talking about some show. One of them asked what show I was into right now. This was around 2016 and my honest answer was Russian Dashcam footage on YouTube. That got some reactions and I immediately knew the people I would click with.
