Observing weird talents is my weird talent.

I work at a grocery store, and we have codes we have to type in for produce/bakery/deli etc, and I have over a hundred committed to memory. More than anyone else who works at the store.
... I have, however, forgotten the lyrics and and how to play the opening to Misty Mountain Hop -_-

A weird talent? Dude I have no idea. I don't think I have any. Unless you count being a weirdly quiet person who unintentionally scares people, or how I have a talent for making chain maille. I'm really good with patterns and organizing though I feel like that could be more from being a perfectionist than anything lol.
Oh and I guess you could count my level of social awkwardness and inability to carry a conversation a talent. XD

i'm double-jointed, and one of my weirdest tricks is being able to turn my thumb around

Being almost completely quiet, most times to the point of people right next to me forgetting I exist.

What do you derive your sense of identity from?
Mod
my identity is a mashup of a lot of stuff but it mainly comes from my nationality and culture, my hogwarts house and MBTI type, and my gender and sexuality.
edit: IN THAT ORDER 😂😂😂
My identity is derived from me, my name, age, date of birth, sex, gender, sexuality orientation, nationality, ethnicity, religion, diet, hobbies and interests, career, education, personality, MBTI, Enneagram Types, Socionics, Jungian Archetype, Instinctual Type, and Zodiac Sign
My identity is derived from gender identity, name, sexuality, my personalityI guess that way? IDK
Well... mine is likely to have been derived from the depths of my mind and soul, incl. from intellect, meditations, culture, ancestry (genetic and the soul-type), religion (in which I think I'm not exactly traditional but rather a mix of traditions), historical and archetypal influences. Add to that professional deformation, hormonal status, psychosomatics, all kinds of informational exposure and that's quite a mix. Of course, any kind and any number of other unknown factors could be affecting me in this and I probably could not be aware of it.
My identity is that I like snakes and waffles
Devastate Lasting wrote: "Um...I guess from my faith, my personality, my race, my friends, my hobbies, and what I like in general..."Do you like snakes and waffles?
:D what kind of snakes do you like?
jay wrote: "What do you derive your sense of identity from?

Hard to say. I'm still discovering that myself since I don't feel like I have a solidly understood identity atm. I suppose it would be from religion (which I don't think I believe in anymore), my homeschooled and isolated upbringing (hence my social awkwardness), my Disney princess aptitude, my marriage, my job, my nearly achieved environmental studies degree, my shitty past experiences, the locations I've lived in the US, and largely from genetics.
A lot of things. I have things that people label on me and I try my hardest to be the opposite of those things. I mainly derive my sense of self from my girly nature, my love of geeky things like history and anime, as well as the general aura around me about not getting involved with other peoples' business
jay wrote: "What do you derive your sense of identity from?

i want to say my religion, but that's not quite true...it's important to me, but it's not the end-all, be-all of my life anymore?
so instead, i'd have to say my newfound gender identity (as in, i just figured it out this week). and my social anxiety, although i don't exactly want it to define me forever!!

it’s jayson, which is just a fancy “jason”, which is greek. jason was the guy who got the golden fleece and lead the argonauts. it’s also mentioned in the bible i think? i haven’t gotten to that part yet, but something about a dude named jason giving shelter to some prophets or something like that.
according to urban dictionary, “Jayson kind of shy person at first. once you get to know him is a very funny, goofy person. His personality can make a girl fall for him right away. Just his smile alone can make you happy. A great person to be around. Makes you want to learn more about him, be friends and maybe more than friends. A great person awesome just being himself.” — which is horribly inaccurate because i promise, i am a piece of shit that you definitely do not want to be around.
There are so many different stories behind my name, but this was what I learnt about Hallie. It means "Praise the Lord" because it is said to have been derived from the word hallelujah. Pretty ironic because I'm an atheist, but I love it nevertheless. Some say it is the diminutive of the name Harriet. I looked around and found different meaning for it, so I suppose it differs in different countries and languages. In Greek, I believe it means "Thinking Of The Sea". Ultimately, it's "cute" and does not suit me that much.

my deadname/birth name was just a misspelling of a bird. lol. I never liked it, even before i decided to go by something else
but according to one site i found, Cal means devotion. :D
My first name means 'an abundance of God'

Rumell is an Arabic name meaning 'Sleep of'. Khan means 'Prince'.
I don't like my name. I don't think the letter 'E' suits in my name. I don't like that I have 2 'Ls''. I don't like that people misspell it even when it is directly in front of them.
Devastate Lasting wrote: "Rumell wrote: "At least they probably don't pronounce it wrong every single time "They do. All the time. I bet many people in this site pronounced the 'e' as 'uh' instead of 'eh'. It's Rumell not Rumull.
Not really Rumell, been pronouncing it in my head correctly

Shush. You're more awesome than you realize.

My name is Helena, which means light/bright/shining and is derived from Helen, as in Helen of Troy. That said, my mother fell in love with the name Helena when she was reading Shakespeare, though it is pronounced differently.
Urban dictionary defines it as: "The most beautiful girl in the world. Her undenying beauty cannot go unnoticed. She is caring,kind,strong,pretty, and has a thin figure. She has something royal and higher class about her. She is smart and knowledgeable. She is every guy’s( and girl’s) dream girl. But the most amazing thing about her is, that she is totally unaware of her beauty and her effect on others. She is shy but her soul and beauty shines, so that everybody can see it.Like she is a goddess"
Funny enough my middle name has the same meaning as Helena - light - and with its scottish roots is a variant of Helen as well. With scottish roots it also means "from the green meadow" or something like that. With Irish roots it simply means light and is adapted from a different name.
As for Lynx - an actual nickname I go by, though my family often changes it to Lynxy - it characterizes my quiet, cat-like personality while playing with one of my favorite hobbies. I make chain maille where I use metal rings/links. Additionally I feel it is appropriate because in some Native American mythology the Lynx is known as the "keeper of secrets" and is believed to have supernatural eyesight that lets it unravel hidden truths. At the time this nickname was accepted the majority of my human interaction was online where I had a wide social network and people had this strange habit of coming to me with their problems, asking for advice, or sharing secrets. Over time I also developed my own. But they were always kept.
My name is Hebrew (I'm not Jewish) and means weary (opposite of my personality, ask anyone)
My name is Alyssum...but this is close enough ;
Alyssa is a variation of the name Alicia. The spelling of the name may be influenced by the alyssum flower. The name of the flower comes from the Greek negative prefix combined with lyssa, which means madness and rabies. ... The origin is also said to come from a Greek word, meaning logical or rational.

It's funny how it was both meant madness and logical or rational.
sarah means princess. in the Bible, sarah was the wife of abraham and mother of isaac.
maisie is a scottish name (lol my ethnicity is so not scottish so this is quite finny) and it means pearl, child of light
angelina (my full name) means messenger of g-d/ angel. Which like, makes sense lol
And then my middle name is just a transliteration of beautiful from cantonese. but guess who is out here ugly af! 🤩🥰🤪 mmm love that for me

there is no single right answer to this. there simply is no meaning to life unless you give life meaning because, in reality, our lives don't really matter outside ourselves and the people we interact with, and we will all one day be forgotten because immortality is impossible and oblivion is inevitable and when you think about it we're all just a product of coincidences made of matter coexisting with one another waiting for the day that death comes for us so we're asking questions like this instead of going out and finding the our purpose so our life can have meaning
