I’m Batman.
I am a MASTER knitter. I do fabulously complicated Aran pattern (Irish) sweaters, regular sweaters, hats, mittens, scarves, SOCKS (yes, socks!), stuffed animals…I even once made a tea set! (obviously, for looks and novelty value, not use).
I am also a damn find jewelry maker.
Hmm…maybe my thing is that I’m good with my hands!
My IQ is 142.
And I’m stronger than you… and you and you and you…

Four of my last five girlfriends left THEIR girlfriends to date me.
Cricket guy just reminded me. (Apologies if you are a gal)
I’ve thrown a perfect game of cricket and 301 in darts in a tourney.
I belong to the Straight Dope.
Booyah!
I can turn a dollar bill into a flapping origami crane without tearing it.
Back in the day, I could do a backflip and stick the landing when I was so drunk I could barely walk. I could also hold a handstand under any circumstance. Sadly, I’m too fat now, but better times are coming.
I can drink really well. I never need babysitting, 98% of the time people say they didn’t even know I was drinking a lot, and I’ve never thrown up from it. A few months ago I had 20 beers in six hours after not eating once all day and still ran out two out of three racks of 9-ball. I’ve never been even one minute late for anything because of drinking. Sadly, though, I am saddled with a superpower I hope not to pass on to my offspring. The humanity. Oh the humanity [of it all].
Wait, you think the fact that you’re a really expensive date is a GOOD thing?
Hmm…maybe it is in a way. You can pick up rich chicks!
I can identify most movies I’ve seen within only a few seconds of video and/or audio.
I also notice sound effect and score reuse… which is just about everywhere. I don’t think anybody has made original music for a film preview in years.
You are SO my idol.
My old job was naming things. Two of my names were Sony Aibo and Lego Mindstorm.
I perform weddings as a part-time job on the weekends. I started in 2000 and have married almost 800 couples since then.
Yeah? Well what you have in quality I make up for in quantity. So there.
I free-soloed this.

What, flunked of out Ohio State? That’s supposedly not that easy!
I got the highest mark in my high school’s history when I took the PSAT – 99s in Math and Verbal skills.
Couldn’t be bothered to take the SAT though – knew I had no idea what I wanted to do, so why spend thousands on university in the States?
I have had my driver’s license revoked for drunk driving – in a province I have never even visited. O_o
I’ve had my hands on Jane Goodall’s shirt… to put on a microphone.
I’ve been on TV for running 5 km on the sand. Naked. (And nobody I worked with recognized me because they were too distracted. Phew!)
I can juggle Mills Mess and Rubenstein’s Revenge. My 4-shower needs some work.
Me too! I can even distinguish foley work from a totally different film. I think the theme from Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story is probably the top three most used score for trailers. I can also identify almost all actor’s voices from commercials. most people would be shocked to know how many famous actors are doing voice overs.
Oh, and I have a big pee hole.
I’m really good with recognizing babies.
For one thing, most people I’ve talked to can’t tell a boy baby from a girl baby until the kid’s about five. I can usually tell with newborns, even without the aid of blue or pink clothing.
And I can tell which baby was which. When my mother looks at old baby pictures of my sisters and me, she can’t tell which is which without clues like a date or location. I always can. I’m also very good at the “guess whose baby picture this is!” game.
As an added bonus, when I actually get to have contact with a little baby, I tend to have some kind of… like… aura or something that makes them comfortable. I babysit for a lot of kids who normally won’t let anyone but their moms hold them.
