Being calm is true. You get in a car crash? Climb out of the flipped car with some injuries and not complain, just chill and wait for 911.
Phantom Aviator is that a robin?
The curse of being a true Chaotic Neutral.
The thing is this is always you should do as you can get carried away with your emotions and make yourself worse. Bleeding can speed up when crying because of the fast breathing.
We were having finals and had to wait, everyone was nervous except me, despite only being average in class. Here we are, waiting to take the test, before the door to the classroom.
I've already done everything to prepare and there was nothing I could do at the moment, so getting nervous would have no effect on the grade, except maybe a negative one.
I made it worse for everyone else, by being completely unmoved. People were complaining to me, because here was the most important test and here I am being calm, relaxed and almost bored.
I told them, we wouldn't get the results any time soon and couldn't ifluence the results in the last minute.
And wether we failed or succeeded, we would go from there and do things only after the fact. ... They didn't react well.
THIS THOUGH!
I had a pretty bad carcrash 1 year ago, the car was totaled and 25 meters from the road. I just cursed and did a quick damage check to see if I was alright, which I was. Since everything was alright I just grabbed my things and left the car.
The first few cars that passed freaked out and ran over to ask what happened. I just calmly said I was alright and that I was alone. I had lost my phone in the crash so I borrowed one from one of the first cars to stop.
First I called my mom to come get me, and a quick call to work because I couldn't get to work in time. The last call was to the ambulanse/police, to just inform them of it.
After all was said and done, I just left, kinda pissed because I was gonna sell the car.
Turns out that knowing very basic German, having a passing interest in military history and occasionally talking about politics makes people jump to conclusions.
xD that got me way more than it should have
Are we the same person?
In no way would anyone suspect this face lol
Hey are you me
You just need that Iconic moustache, unite all of Germany, turn it into the Greatest land power, humiliate France and everyone will think of you as the next Otto Von Bismarck
"You're so calm under pressure"
"Thanks its the trauma"

Legit had a door salesman get so personal with my dad for 45min, that he literally almost made my dad change religion just by kindness.
Edit: my dad is an incredibly insistent catholic, and the salesperson was a jehovahs witness, but he was selling another product, successfully.
Second edit: Holy shit I didn’t expect this to lead towards a moral debate!
tf
Haha. The reactions I got from wives when I expertly handled their difficult husbands without them knowing it as a door to door salesman. The skills I learned in that job...
ಠ_ಠ
My dad is a salesman. It made him rich. I could never do it. I couldn't in good conscience. Your dad almost changing religion because of a salesman is ironic. It also says something about religious people. One of my dad's favorite topics with marks when he smells it. Then sports. If you talk to him more than once, you have a nickname. He's been in the pharma and home oxygen business for years. Basically he has gotten rich off the sick and dying. The American dream.. I love him but if I believed in such things, I'd wager whatever inheritance I would have gotten if he didn't piss it all away there's a special place in hell for him.
@@NoNo-dq4mc Jesus Christ was a salesman. So was Hitler. Only 1% of the population can do the type of sales your father did. Everybody gets sick and dies and doctors make lots of $$$ from it but are highly respected. I am sure many people benefitted from having home oxygen. Every profession has good and bad people in it. Jehova's Witnesses try to change your religion. As do all missionaries. The persuasive skills of sales can always be used for good or bad. Perhaps you should ask your dad the percentage of people he genuinely helps vs fleeces. I hope you find some peace with your father, and also come to understand and find peace with the second oldest profession in the world.
That “walking silently” thing is legit. I’ve had the ability for as long as I can remember and I unintentionally scare people all the time.
I have that skill
like seriously I live quietly as in quietly, sleep eat walk like most of the time I'm quiet
pretty cool and suspicious at the same time tbh
lowlychrismarks same.
Lol I walk very quietly too, I'm very calm and quiet in general because of my abusive parents.
The fun about being quiet is walking normally behind someone, them not noticing/only the ones facing you that are talking to the person in front of you noticing and not revealing me, and scaring someone.
It's funny :v
same here 😂 i just dont like making other ppl feel anoying so i just scare the sh** out of them when they know im right behind them from the very start 😂 some of them not even know even when I leave, and that is the moment i hear the dark secret story from their mouth, like bad mouth me or my family or something that i shouldnt hear 😂
Nowadays i use my silent walking to scare my buddies
"walking silently"
yes. also being able to shift your weight in such a way so that nothing you step on makes a sound, like leaves. i can appear behind you literally anywhere
Ya same
And Idk about you, but I can also jump silently, or in way that if I do it on water, it doesn't splash
Same here. Even on dry leaves. I have to have at least slight focus, so i sometimes make noise but i dont really have to concentrate too much
I can do this unless my stupid poppy bones crack every three seconds
I have a godly ability to scare people without trying, like a scared my brother when I was going to brush my teeth.😐 yup.
It's always very fun to scare someone who "is good at hearing" because they claim you can't scare them. It always annoys them when I prove them wrong. I'm also incredibly clumsy, but just silent when I fall or trip.
The one about telling people by their walk reminded me of a story I saw on 60 minutes. It was about a blind architect. He designed a building for a blind foundation. In the office he put concrete floors instead of carpet because it is easier to use a blind cane on it. One of the blind people who worked in the office said he also liked the floor because you can hear people comming down the hall. He said he could tell who was comming down the hall based on how they tapped their cane. If someone came by that he wanted to talk to, all he needed to do was call out to them.
This reminds me of something, i remember that, when i was younger, i knew how to recognize who was coming into my room/walking around the hallway just by the way they walked
Being to tell how many people are in a room just by feeling the room's humidity..
I too am disgusted of how I can accurately estimate those numbers.
You wouldn't be able to pull this trick in the Philippines

I'm a 6ft tall, heavyset, black man with a loud voice. Despite that, my walk is completely silent. I sneak up on my friends all the time to freak them out, though it does lead to strangers trying to stop me if I do it in public
ok black man
You being black has no relevance to this particular "skill" at all.
Why does you being black matter though
Some people tend to believe that tall muscular black men are more scary than other races.
I talk alot but everybody says I sneak up on them. And I mean EVERYBODY except my family
Being quiet in general, sometimes my brother doesn’t notice I’m there and freak him out sometimes and I’m just like “dude I’ve been here for like an hour”
Same, my sister and I share a room so she always duoble checks my bed when she goes inside because ive scared her before
Thats me.
I'm so quiet and spend so much time locked away in my room, my family forgot about my existence and remembered once I went to get snacks from the kitchen
Looks like you’ve mastered the ability of being so incredibly still that you’re invisible to the naked eye.
@@david_laranjeira is that a Drax reference? 😂
I relate to the walking quietly one. My dad got really annoyed at how "loud" I was walking through the house one day (I wasn't walking that loudly, but according to him I was fucking stomping around). He had a temper and ended up snapping at me about it, so I started basically sneaking around the house. I eventually got so good at it that walking quietly was a natural thing and I would sneak up on my friends a lot by accident. Now the real problem is, I'm 6 feet tall and pretty large, so I can tell people actually get freaked out a bit by this large man just appearing out of nowhere and I've started intentionally walking loudly if I'm around people (especially strangers) and don't want to scare them.
Sneak 100
same i also have to intentionally be loud so i dont spook people
how i got so sneaky is because 6 year old me wanted to sneak devices so i could play until id get caught
Lmao same, my favorite thing to do is get so close I can whisper in their ear without them ever seeing it coming. Freaks out my gf every time for years now 😂
My great sense of hearing... It's freaky and I freak my family out, I can hear what people say from rooms away even if they're not loud. Heard a family member gossipping about me in my sleep and manually woke up to confront them..
I magically wake up if my name mentioned lol idk dont ask
or if any juicy stuff is up ,my mind knows me well ig
I'll forget their name but remember something they said like 3 years ago before I knew them
Same I think its cool that I remember weird shit but people find it annoying and creepy

I don't think this counts but one time I woke up before my parents and started making breakfast in the kitchen. It was dark when I woke up and I don't like light in my eyes suddenly, so I was making breakfast in the dark with ease being able to see around me.
I'm nearly the tallest person in the house so when my mum who I'm much taller than walked out to the kitchen, you can imagine the shock of this tall shadowy figure standing in the kitchen.
She actually got scared when it happened.
I have often scared my mom simply by walking quietly.
If you have blue eyes then that is normal. People with blue eyes see their entire world brighter than people with brown eyes. And its also why I have 3 pairs of polarized sunglasses

Sounds so much like me. I'm also pretty tall, 6'4".
I have really good night vision even though I have dark brown eyes... (I don't know what that other reply was about..)
But the difference is my mom walks around the corner and flips the lights on and I get scared about how suddenly bright it gets.
I feel like the footsteps one is just a given skill when you have strict parents
Relatable
Same
Really? I do have semi-strict parents, but I thought I got that skill because I like reading action books
Same applies to lying and bypassing locks.
Mine was just from staying up late and my parents coming to check up sometimes
Walking silently, for me it started out as a joke by playing tio many stealth games now i cant walk loudly anymore, my muscle memory tells my body to walk silently, pair it with the fact that i can open locks and im pretty good at pickpocketing and you got one hell of a combo

The "being to calm" hitted to close to home.
I get very calm and collected in stressfull situatioms. So hardly anything truely scares me or stresses me (except the fear of failuer)
So ive been accused many times of being cold or, not getting into the scares or feels of a movie or game or such.
Actually... the "maintain composure during a crisis" one is more fitting i think...
Either way
you failed to correctly spell failure lol
My emotions seem to work like a gas tank. They can only go so far before they stop working, i.e., run out of gas. I remember being at a relative's funeral, wondering how badly I'd be crying and spent a lot of time at the service crying. But at the cemetery where the actual burial took place, my eyes were dry and itchy. I guess I literally did use up all my tears. I have no idea why this affects me but at least it doesn't have any bad impact on my health.
i have no fear apart from Reagan from the exorcist and death
Honestly same, when my grandad died I loved him so much and I missed him but it didn’t really affect me like I thought it would, I didn’t cry at all I just didn’t see it as a sad thing.
My nose bleeds like a faucet for no reason sometimes, so naturally, I have gotten good at stopping them and cleaning up some blood. When I said like a faucet, I meant very viscous and fast.
Could be a lack of a specific vitamin (can't remember which one). Try eating an orange or two. Had a friend that was having the same problem, and my mother told her the same thing. Her nosebleeds cleared up, and she made oranges a regular part of her diet after that.

and also murderers

Not so much a skill, but being a silent type of person makes people think you are plotting something or a serial killer.
Try being silent while also not showing emotions. I swear Im not mad, this is just my neutral face 😐

That's terrible. Silence is a relief
People think I have superiority complex 😂😂
I have several of these
-Walking unnaturally fast
-Walking almost completely silently
-Reading people scarily accurate if I can see in person or over a video chat.
-picking locks
-knowing how to use several weapons that people love (swords, staffs, three section staffs.) this isn’t so much everyday thing but when I was younger we’d play swords and I’d actually know how and demolish people.
-speed reading, I casually read over 700 wpm and reading quickly if I’m trying to get something done I can read over 1000, I retain almost perfect comprehension as well.
-memorizing chemical formulas and how to make them, this is of all kinds from something harmless to something that could level buildings.
-being unnaturally strong, this is a generic condition I have which leads to decreased fat and increased muscle size and strength and general muscle however I still look relatively slender so when somebody sees a 160 5’11” Asian guy bench 400 pounds it scares them or makes them think I’m doing roids. Anyway I’be said enough even though I have more.
So you’re basically overpowered
tips on how to read faster please i feel like i can do it but when i realize i'm reading "fast" i get to overwhelmed so i slow down
Walking silently and unusually fast are ones of mine too, mostly due to my paranoia. I used to live in a really awful neighborhood so I would stalk around silently and quickly because I was worried I'd get gunned down. Even once I moved out of the ghetto, the habit persists to this day.

The ability to learn things without doing anything, it seems normal until you know a lot about someone you only spoke to twice. Plus being able to run on grass without making a sound, I thought it was normal until I scared 9 people

"Opening beers without a proper bottle opener."
Entire Balkan region: "WTF you guys don't know that?"
Not only balkans. I think all of Eastern Europe does that.
I know how to do that, and I've never drunk a beer in my life. Comes from canning and needing to open the jars without damaging the lids. Once a lid is bent even the tiniest bit, you can't reuse it as a sealing lid anymore. You can still use it for other things, you just can't use it as a canning lid.
@@warriormaiden9829 So you can open a jar with another jar?
@@jozokrstanovic9040 ...if I did it right, possibly? Never tried. Though now that you mention it, you have me curious... XD
No, I just use a piece of silverware, usually a butter knife. With the right pressure and angle, it pops the lid right off, easy as you please. :)

the line between being awake and asleep is very blurred for me. often times i may be physically awake but completely unconscious. but what bothers people is the inverse of this; i'm typically semi to fully aware of my surroundings when sleeping. i can tell myself to wake up after a certain amount of time and then automatically do so, no alarms or anything. i usually hear conversations while i'm asleep and my parents get really confused when they tell me about something they discussed while i was asleep and i already know about it. i also tend to wake up immediately if anyone approaches me or even looks at me for longer than a quick glance.
another one is i pick up the smallest details in things almost right away. i can be watching a show and predict half the plot based off of something in the background or a short, seemingly insignificant interaction between characters. i can tell exactly how most people feel through their voice, i remember what different little cues mean for different people (ex. not everyone uses the same emoji or phrase to mean the same thing), and in general i'm just good at observing people and learning how they function.
yep. plot from a needless insert.
and people used to be obvious to me.
sleep thing is quite different..
Prefect hearing:
Happens on a daily basis, for instance, my cat can come from the backyard and gently tap the door making a very quiet subtle sound. I turn around to my parents and just say "Cat is here".
They look at me like wtf, open the door, and behold... 😅
"Being calm. People accuse you of being cold if you are not as agitated as they are." Can relate 🤣
I've always done this but in my early 20s I worked as an operator in a call centre for emergency medical services. Ever since then I just tell people I was trained to be calm in stressful situations. That's been rather helpful to get people to stop seeing me as cold. Even though it's not true at all, I was like that as a teenager lol. In fact when I first started working as an operator, I was praised by management for my ability to stay calm lol.
yes i find it kinda hard to express my emotions well but i’m not a cold hearted human lmao

A funny story was when I was with my cousin on the road (she was driving) and a giant truck almost mowed us down as they were speeding along the road, not caring about the traffic light. She went pale, and her whole body was shaking. She stepped so hard on the brake she almost broke it. Thing is, after a few seconds, I hear this extremely loud shout "WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU!?" She was asking me how I had remained unfazed by what just happened. I simply answered "worst case scenario we would've died, so it's not that big of a deal". I felt bad for a while because my sarcastic comment actually hurt her feelings. Another one was when some kid ran down the street from god knows where and she hit him. She, along with my aunt as well as my other, very young cousin, all started crying. So I was the one who went to check up on the kid, completely unaffected by what had just happened (they were totally fine). Sometimes I actually have to make a concious effort and fake being shaken by things to make me seem a bit more" normal", by acting surprised when someone tries to scare me, or start panicking when somerhing bad happens, or even try to look sad when someone's death is announced.
L story of my life lol. But also ironically gettin super randomly pissed over the most random things. Like sometimes at work I’ll be told shit that should make me angry and be like...eh. But the smallest little minor thing happens and I blow up bigger than an atom bomb lol
I have an unnaturally strong connection with animals. If you bring me to your house and have a shy pet, within 10 minutes I'm playing and snuggling with them. Animals just seem to trust me extraordinarily fast.
Auden The Ice Dragon same
i have that with dogs and snakes for some reason
My neighbor has 2 pit bulls and they are insane while she tries to bring them inside but when they escape I can bring them calmly out of my yard 😂
I’m that way with cats 😂the amount of times I’ve been playing with someone’s cat and had the owner walk in and say something like “wow they don’t normally like people”
Usually animals like dogs (they say) that can sense people if they're good or bad. I guess you're a very good person, not to the point that you don't do some bad things but most likely you are more gold or very genuine.
Recognizing footfalls is so true! I memorized the footfalls of my family, some teachers, a few kids I have a lot of classes with, so sometimes I ask someone a question even though I’m not facing them.
I know a lot of people who can recognize their family’s foot patterns, they just don’t realize they’re doing it, I guess.
The being calm one and walking silently ones are me. Also I have like the opposite of colaustrophobia, like I do really well with tight spaces. Recognizing people’s footsteps too. Also after all the traumatic stuff I had happen I rarely get scared or show much emotion. Hiding stuff in places where no one can see it on my person. No, I mean like concealing my phone and wallet if I have no pockets or bag. Lying? You won’t be able to tell the truth from the lie. Reading fast. Spanish teacher got mad I would read slow, started reading faster than everyone. I carry a pocket knife with me at all times. Creeps some people out.
I'm good at staring at people with an emotionless expression, with direct eye contact at all times.
I do that 24/7 at school. They probably think I am a psychopath.
When I’m ticked, I just stare at the person with slightly bigger eyes than usual. And, I Brett blink if I focus on something. (Like sometimes I’m like “oh wait I have to blink.”)
My friend did this when we played a game of chicken... we got to the point noses touched and it genuinely freaked me out.
For some reason I suck at eye contact, but people always think that I’m not paying attention, so I have to focus on making eye contact, but I focus on it so much that I end up not paying attention to what the other person is saying
@@janzlr6028 I'm good at this to but at school since I'd always do this it would just turn into a contest of who could keep a blank face the longest

step 1: *strict parents*
Well of u are born asian the chance of learing this skill is pretty common
Or just the other people you live with have very distinctive footsteps. For example, my dad often walks in a slow, shuffling manner, while my mom has a much faster and lighter walk.

I relate to this
I read a lot of books on psychology as a kid and I got so used to this new knowledge I was basically a superhuman, who had a photographic memory, could persuade people, make people hallucinate, could tell what people were thinking, feeling, and about to say as well as almost perfectly predict the outcomes of situations.
Bottomline it is apparently creepy to be able to read people like books.
Much like Sherlock Holmes.. Being able to tell certain things about certain people from just a glance.
Not AS in depth, not at all.
But being able to tell if someone who just walked into the room had been to a bakery/bank/used to be a surgeon really creeps people out. I don't talk about it as much anymore, even though I find it genuinely fun.

My cousin is super observant and probably has super hearing and super night vision.
Once he was pulled over at night by a cop (Russia) while he was driving around with his friends. He apparently noticed a civil car with 2 cops in, in their uniform hiding in a dark spot while he was passing them. When he was stopped a little ahead and the cop was done with his questioning, my cousin started to point out that the guys in the car with their uniform a little behind are visible, as to point out their flaw. He also pointed out something about their numberplates while being observant and the cop got creeped and asked where my cousin worked cuz he thought my cousin was some kinda special federal agent to be that observant. Idk how he is like that but he isn't any agent, in fact, he works with metal, making fences and gates and such since he is 13 orso. The thing in Russia is that the federal agents(fsb) use mundane jobs as coverup to not be caught, especially "construction" is the one most used. So when my cousin said he worked with metal he obviously didn't believe him and probably was even more concerned that he stopped the infamous fsb agents.
I relate to the walking quietly. In highschool, I kept scaring my friends because I'm quiet and would walk up behind them without them noticing. I ended up putting my keys and a bunch of key/phone charms on a lanyard to wear so people can hear me when I walk around. Still wear it after high school and my favorite thing to do is to randomly go to work without it. I love walking up to my co-workers' desks and scaring them. I just go up to their desk and when they don't noticed I'm there I knock on the desk. Gets them every time 😆
The best liars are the ones that you think are bad liars.
You couldn't be more right.
The secret is hiding smaller more obvious lies inside a bigger lie so that when people realise the smaller lie they think they've found them all and let their guard down, also being consistent about your lies

@@ZoeBateman or just being extremely chill all the time and make things up, there is a 40% chance this made up things will blow up, but if your skilled enough it's even easier to turn that to your advantage, the problem is that this work if people know that your chill all the time, or else it get suspicious pretty quickly.
@@ledocteur7701 being chill is definitely another good tip, as people will typically think that a chill person wouldn't need to lie, added bonus being if you do lose the chill it can make the lie more believable too as people will think "oh its getting serious"

So true about genuine kindness. I'm told I'm an extremely nice person but its also why I can keep friends or relationships, they are always suspicious I'm up to something and it freaks them out too much. Sorry i was bullied growing up, realized how much that feeling hurts and do what I can to make sure no one else feels that pain.
I definitely relate to the one that said if you’re too calm in a crisis, people think you’re a sociopath. Add to that, not freaking out at the sight of blood/injuries and then my personal best: I can both move quietly AND move through rooms easily in the dark and I’ve alarmed more than a few people.
I have Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (cpstd) the doctor told me in the event of an emergency he wants someone with PTSD around him because they can switch off their emotions, put their big girl pants on and do what is necessary. PTSD is a superpower

@Xavier Yeetus Pretty much
@@AhidepociereMartynov nice. The only people keeping me sane are my friends at school (like ten of them in a small group. We play football every day and that’s pretty much the entire reason why I like school), and my cousins. Unfortunately, one of my cousins, the only guy in my life that I felt like was my real brother even though I have an actual brother (he’s really weird) went to the marines and I haven’t seen him for months. And I won’t see him until around June, and then after that, for another six months or so
Being silent. Remaining calm. Those things scare some people. Those people are mostly extroverts.
Ikr, it's a perk
as an extrovert some people question why i seem so calm when something "crazy" happens when it's actually a common occurrence, to the people that keep themselves locked in all day, please go outside sometimes. The world is crazy and you'll be shocked at what you see/can get yourself into
Which is weird because in any normal situation, I'm super extroverted and am loud and jokey, but in a serious conversation or when I'm focused and spacing out at the same time, I'm unnaturally calm quiet and people think I'm weird lol
people often ask how chill I am, even about small things like at school right before a science final exam I was just sitting while everyone else was freaking out and cram studying. they were amazed at my calmness
Oh yea, I have sat In my room all day only going out twice to get food, my mom thought I was sick or super mad
A lot of these are less than everyday but that "Converting oz to grams" got me
I don’t know if this goes for everyone but, Every time my mom calls me I immediately know what she’s gonna say🧐🤭
Knowing how to lockpick, walk really quietly and knowing random facts that a lot of people don't usually know is concerning to some people. Especially when you have all three.
I never learned lockpicking but I learned about key bumping and while I guess technically it is the same thing it works a bit differently and if done correctly is so much faster. Had a friend call me saying he was locked out of his house and wanted to know if I knew any locksmiths and I said “no worries, I got you.” And then afterwards he was very uncomfortable knowing I knew how to do that.
👁👁
I have a good memory for random stuff and have rather silent steps. Only person I don't scare is my dad dude just isn't very scarible
I have this problem lol.
I naturally know where all main nerves are in the body, I don't do doctor work or even take classes for any fighting or anything.
And no it's not like the eyes or actual KNOWN nerves. I mean ones that alot of people don't know about, like one in a particular part of vertibre which can cause someone to completely shiver for no reason (mostly when people feel a 'shiver' on their back it's the fabric of their clothes or the wind rubbing that one nerve)
can confirm.
Identifying people by their voices. When I was a teen we had some neighbor boys who were twins and one day I was playing some game on my own while they were fucking around behind me. One asked a question and I answered with his name, and they were both thrown off by this. Apparently their own mother had not developed that skill, and they had never realised it was possible. Strange to me, since that had always been the easiest way for me to tell them apart.
So many terrifying incidents because my friend is like this. One words from around the corner, even if I'm trying to sound like someone else tips them off to me
I have twins as friends, and since i dont think they look alike anymore, ive grown the ability to know a pair of twins for one day and be able to tell them apart.
When I was younger I thought everyone could recognize the others by their voices... Then I met a pair of twins and in 1 day I was able to recognise them. My father took weeks. People who know them for years have to ask them who they are first. I always know who they are because of their voices.
Also, I had two girls in my class once that looked completely different, but sounded almost the same. I had never seen something like that and it made me so confused haha
Edit: typos
Bruh I swear I can sometimes tell a person by the way they breath or cough/sneeze etc. For example, I was home alone and in the bathroom, and I heard someone come home, and I didn’t know who it was (it was either my mom or my brother), but as I heard them exhale, I could immediately tell that it was my brother.
I think in general it's easy to recognize peoples footsteps, voices, etc. but it's much harder when they are both related and in the same age group, on average. Me and my mother have the same voice - kids usually pick up vocal patterns from their parents.
I lived all my life inside an abusive household and always got bullied in school and I have so many weird abilities because of that;
I can recognize people by footsteps, I have a really good hearing, I can read people and know if someone is mad, I know how to treat serious wounds, I'm really good at pick pocketing, breaking into pleases, finding quite, lonely places, remembering small details, memorizing people's schedules, having better reflexes, knowing when things are about to go down, being able to change emotions really quickly, being good at faking smiles, laughter, etc...
Definitely walking silently. I started clipping my keys to my belt loop just to make some kind of a noise signaling I’m in the area because too many times I’ve “appeared as if from nowhere” near my friends and I’ve made so little noise it didn’t even trigger their peripheral. Just “showed up”. Doesn’t also help that, if they’re in a convo, I wait until they’re finished (I don’t like interrupting) so I’ll be there for like 3-5 minutes, totally silent, then they turn and proceed to have multiple heart attacks.
To answer the burning question, no, usually the other people in the convo don’t notice I’m around as well. Gotta admit, got some laughs out of it a few times~
It's interesting to me how emotional management is largely considered an indication of psychopathy.
while most psychopath are otherwise.....
I guess im a psycho then I don’t really ‘feel’ emotions per-say I feel sad and happy and that stuff but I don’t go to a funeral and burst out in tears I go for a funeral and say ‘well I might miss this person’ and then im done with it.

I just sat there sarcastically saying oh no.. no don’t do that.. no. I was annoyed but logical but never even shown a hint of panic.
My mom complains that I walk too loud, and I should stop walking like an elephant in the house. Meanwhile, on field trips and at school, my friends actually look around for me when I'm right behind them because I'm extremely quiet somehow.

You only walk quietly and carry a big stick when following your friends in the woods. Hmm. ;-) I'm constantly surprising people by suddenly appearing behind them. It's not just stepping softly, it's keeping your energy within quiet as well...and probably not wearing a lot of leather, which creaks.

From what I learned online, bleach, baking powder and club soda are amazingly effective at cleaning up stains on carpet, clothes, etc. And those Mr. Clean Magic Erasers are no joke. They really work. Of course, remember to take them seriously about that warning on the package that says "Test in a small inconspicuous area first!" No kidding. It can do damage if you're not careful with it.
Not having the need to show emotion, never being serious in serious moments, cleaning blood, not showing pain, and ( I’m confused at this one) being able to do relatively hard math in my head with enough time.
hiding in plain sight. i honestly can't even count how many times people have gotten genuinely scared when i talk suddenly from a room they glanced over.
I've been mistaken twice for a manikin because I was staying so still. I just don't like shopping and I focus on things too easily.

This was the last comment I expected to see
The being calm or not being as reactive thing is absolutely true. I've had people be borderline abusive to me when I didn't freak out at something shocking like they did because I'm still processing where to go from there and how to solve the issue. They'd then cite that I had other somewhat exaggerated reactions to comparatively minor things, when I'm confused as to how something minor ended up as a problem. I'm just far less focused on how to react to something than I am on the thing itself. And I get shit for it. Then when I actually am genuinely pissed at something and have the right to be, they act like they're suddenly all hyper calm and logical and can't let me have 1 thing to be angry at. It really makes me hate people and actually want to be cold to them.
Similar problem here! I have a very good poker face and I usually don't react to anything. I've had to teach myself to be expressive so I wouldn't get shit from others, but now I'm starting to not care about that. Fuck people
Same here and they think it's weird, they somethimes stay away from me. So I observe the people around me on how they react into certain things and practice it. So like when they show me something that's shocking (to them, not to me) I'll act shock.
holy shit you need to get yourself better friends (but if its family im sorry,, better friends will help with coping with that too)
this happens to me too, the problem is that it is my family that pisses me off. im always calm and kind then everybody feel like they can talk shit to me. i never say anything but people keep trashtalking and its fucking annoying
Yeah, that's very true.
Ok walking silently is cool and all but...
What about walking silently with flip-flops on?
I share the walking silently ability.
Once It was nighttime and I was walking right behind my mom because I needed to ask her a question, but I didn’t speak up.
She didn’t realize I was behind her, and entered her room and closed the door in my face on accident.
._. Never got to ask her
Why is it that I can accidentally memorize things but I can't memorize my notes for a test?
The same reason you remembered how to use a fork without realizing it but not how to learn to juggle. Basically focusing too much on something can ultimately make you forget it in the long term or not understanding it at all. Also remembering has a lot to do with preconceived views. Like if I say I accidentally microwaved my phone you would remember that because you already understand what a microwave does and that putting your phone in it is stupid but if I said something like the standard model of physics is quite elegant but incomplete you may not remember it because you dont have an interest in physics or have a lack of understanding with it. Either way it was your preconceived views that allowed or prohibited you from remembering.
Sorry if this was a hypothetical question lol
@@TicuTK how the hell do you accidentally microwave your phone?
@@Person-wd9dl I didn't but I know I've seen trolls say it charges your phone so there has to be someone out there who has microwaved their phone.

When you have to lie about things so people don't actually know how much you know
Scarlet Strawberry Sorry but I despise people who lie every other sentence- you just learn to don’t trust them and you can’t tell what’s true and what’s not. Like lying sometimes when in certain situations, I understand that- but when your with close friends just hanging out. It’s not cool in my opinion
In kindergarten they had us count as high as we could to evaluate our progress. Since I practiced at home I could probably get to like 1000, but the girl in front of me only counted to 109 or something. I then just counted a couple numbers higher to not seem like a show off haha
have you considered a government/CIA/spy job?
@@blaydenwebb3856 Most friends despise being cooler than them. People prefer normal attitudes over perfect ones. Wanna try? Do this: become a lot better than your friend in any hobbie and show off in front of him / group. See what happens next.
Sometimes its way better to play dumb. Being a nice and dumb friend isn't as much of a menace to self esteem than being ''fuckin Simon who makes me feel sad around him''.
I'm not smart. But I do like learning countries and some cultures. Whenever a friend mention a culture and their people in a well-known country (for me atleast), I'm holding myself so hard to not spill out that they are wrong so I don't get claim as a "nerd/smartass".
In the end, I only said "oh. Really? Huh." Most of the times or just complete silent. I don't want to act like I'm bragging about my knowledge because in other subjects like maths and science, I failed badly.

If I really commit to it, I’m fantastic at hiding. I hid for like, four hours once in a game of hide and seek as a kid, and last week I was playing with some new friends. They gave up and just texted me saying “you win, we’re at McDonald’s, we gave up like a minute ago.”
Same.
Then there’s me enjoying a massage cause I hid in the massage chair. Hid there for a good hour till I decided to go find everyone else.
Hiding behind the door then jumpscaring the ever loving crap out of the seeker is fun. One time, I dropped from a 15 foot tree branch, and followed the seeker around for a while. They never turned around.
Oh yeah. I forgot about the time I was wearing super high visibility clother and just hid under a desk that if you use the printer you could see under, and apparently I bent my body innsuch a way that I was completely in shadow and was functionally invisible. This was one time that someone said something bad and I got blamed for it so was in detention. The detention monitor actually sent out someone to try to find me and I could see a very high level of genuine fear in their eyes when I stood up in front of their desk because to absolutely everyone I was completely invisible.
Ok so I am really good at hiding and I occasionally hide in the tall grass on the golf course by my house in hide and seek, Jesus Christ I've scared so many people and sometimes my friends who also know a little to much about history, like me, walk by and I scream "WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE" or "WELCOME TO THE RICE FIELDS".
Another weird thing is Knowing too much about history, especially grizzly shit or how people died (Playwright Aeschylus was killed by an Eagle who dropped a turtle shell on his head). People look at me in history class like I'm a psychopath like how the fuck do you know this shit. I just say "Reading" cause I have no fucking clue either
I've always been able to spin things on my fingers without it ever flying away, it doesn't exactly creep them out but it does terrify them of the chances that it might get flung to them, especially when i start spinning scissors without ever realizing it until they start begging me to put the scissor down
Most of these are just perks of being a quiet person. Accidentally listening to others conversations, walking quietly, knowing where other people's things are, knowing certain peoples footsteps etc. You just sit and observe
The card shuffle thing rings TRUE. My cousin can shuffle a deck like it’s nothing and even though I know we are only playing for fun, for some reason I feel like I am in that Sopranos poker episode.
