Arts in general like drawing, sculpting, creating. Also I suck at keeping in touch with others and hear about it a lot.

Connecting with people on an emotional level unless it's talking with someone specifically to hate on other people.

Music, specifically making it. I can appreciate it, but don't ask me to make up my own.

EDIT: Oh, and on the video game side of things, I eally suck at Star Control 2 and similar games. I'm already pretty terrible at Asteroids-style controls, but then you add in stuff like gravity and other ships to fight against, and I usually end up acclerating way too much.

Socially, respecting other people's feelings. I'm very blunt. I just can't do the whole "My condolence" kinda shit. I'm much too pragmatic about such things and often feel I come off as rude but still can't care about it.
People are way too prissy for my taste. They take shit to heart I don't even think about as a big deal. I have a very easy time to just ditch people and think hurt feelings is shit for faggots. I'm very insensitive when I don't meant to be that way. I just don't see that faggot shit as relevant as most people seem to think.
Every single grading paper from school highlights that I'm smart but don't take care of other people's feelings enough. Every single last one of them from first grade on.
It had already gotten to a point where I thought something is wrong with me. But no, it's just bitches being overly sensitive.

In vidya it's RTS and shoot'em ups I'm just plain terrible at.

Seeing other people as actual people. Over two decades I've grown into mostly faking interest in people. I believe I am severely social retarded.

I'm good with electronics, but they hate me. Everything I touch makes something negative happen.

I suck at life. I¨'m a walking Murphy's Law. My fuse is so short nowadays.

Sleeping. Have had a bad case of insomnia for years that comes and goes seemingly at random. Can't seem to find out what causes it.

I'm this except I actually have strong empathetic skills.

It's very weird. I was raised specifically to be blunt and logical rather than emotional yet I can connect with how people are feeling. In the same breath that I tell you that I think you're destroying your own body I can also say, "but I understand why you're doing it."

Not sure if that makes me normal and you abnormal or if that makes both of us some special kind of freak, or something, but it's incredibly annoying to look at someone you work with and empathize with them while, at the same time, making them feel like crap about what you're empathizing with and getting the reputation of being, "that dick that everyone talks to anyway because there's something interesting about someone telling you point blank to stop overeating."

Handyman type shit, mostly. I dealt with a fair amount of bullshit growing up and didn't learn much about DIY stuff. Nor did I have an interest in it or any affinity for it.

As far as I'm concerned my life was a cruel joke that I'm forced to live, so I try to underhandedly bring others down to my level while pretending to give a shit.

So I'm bad at being a genuine, or an objectively good person, because people always see it eventually and the facade starts to unravel the longer I'm around them.

If you want to use people, just keep your time with them short so you can reap the benefits of your charade as long as possible.
