    I'm really good at reading people. I can always tell if someone is lying, upset, like me, don't like me, you name it.

    grammar correction..........almost to the point of being obnoxious.....
    Grammar would be capitalized and an ellipsis only has three "dots."

    Grammar correction...almost to the point of being obnoxious.
    While being an incomplete sentence syntactically, it carries the understood subject and verb of:
    [I would win] grammar correction...almost to the the point of being obnoxious.

    With this in mind, an em dash would carry heavier interpolation than an ellipsis. But aposiopesis is aposiopesis.

    Of course, this little exercise has likely confirmed that I have, in fact, taken the gold in both grammar correction and being a smart *kitten*.

    Cheers.

    Napping! But as for sleeping at night, I'd have to take the bronze.

    Actually, I am also really good at centering things and telling if they are level. Maybe that's just my OCD?

    Geography! ... I've spent many hours of many days in my life staring quietly at maps, I love it!

    me too!!

    Me too, but this is important. You need to know where things are!

    The other night I astounded a friend by knowing almost every lyric on The Best of The Carpenters. I don't even like The Carpenters.

    Telling my SO " I told you so!" 9 times out of 10 I am correct. And I am a Grammar Nazi too, especially when people misspell words. And another is road rage. I scream and yell in my car at the offender who is either cutting me off, speeding up so I can't pass by when I have had my blinker on for the last 1/4 mile, or the driver who is blowing through a stop sign as if they didn't see it. Take the gold for all 3.

    When I need a certain number of something (envelopes, rubber bands, paper, etc.) and just grab a handful, I almost always grab the exact number that I needed. It actually is pretty freaky.

    I have no gag reflex.

    That's probably not Olympic medal worthy, though. Hmm...

    I could probably give margieward82 a run for her money in the "turning a clean kitchen into a giant mess in no time flat" event.

    Pretty sure that earns you two!

    I am the master of having zero sense of direction. I could get lost in my own bath tub.

    I'd get the gold for have the best immune system ever. I NEVER get sick and I am a peds nurse so I see little germ infested humans daily. I tell my boss that its because I don't wash my hands near as much as I should. After nuclear war breaks out its gonna be me and the **** roaches, that is if they don't kidnap me and try to reproduce my immune response :laugh: :laugh:

    Oh and I'd get the Gold in ability to pin kids down and give them shots/draw blood too. Its harder than it looks, those little effers are pretty strong to be so small
