Well I think I shock a few people when i tell them I can’t ride a bike or swim.
For me it’s something that I manage to do with out.
I was wondering if anyone else has something that they can’t do that shocks people
(For those that wondering I had symptoms similar to displaxia as a kid so anything that has balance and coordination I don’t find to easy)

"I can't lick my elbow Apparently most can, but try as I might it's just out of reach! "
Most people can do this? Really? I can't.... And why would you want to be able to lick your own elbow anyway. These folk are missing out on so much ![](/icons/s/mrgreen.gif) |

"I can’t or won’t eat broken biscuits
Once you've had the first bite, they become broken. Do you only have one bite per biscuit, or ram them in whole? "
I know but the thought of eating a broken biscuit just does not sit right, I’ll give the first couple out of a pack to someone else because they are usually broken
Once I’ve broken them by dipping them in my coffee that’s fine because I’ve done it I think something happened to me in childhood involving biscuits or something associated but it’s a bit of a phobia ![](/icons/s/rolleyes.gif) |

"Roll my tongue
That's genetic.
I can't ride a bike (balance problems), whistle or cut properly (it's always wonky).

It is genetic. I didn't realise why I was younger and thought if I practised hard enough I'd be able to do it! |

No it is genetic. People that can't do it are in the minority, so I guess it's a dominant gene that causes the characteristic. All my family can do it apart from me so as a kid I thought I could learn to do it. Hours wasted! ![](/icons/s/rolleyes.gif) |
