Are you great at anything? You know, other than staring at boobs and pleasuring yourself?

I'm pretty good at just about everything I've ever done or tried but I can't say I'm great at anything.

As they say, good is the enemy of great. I'm 42, is it too late for me?

Yes. Yes I am. I am great at my job (title exam/land law). I've shut down $400 an hour power bitch attorneys with a single statute reference. It's a niche field, and I'm in the top ten percent.

Locally.

I was a great fullback at my level many years ago.
I was a great high school sprinter.
I am still great at my job, even after almost 30 years.

I’m really great in bed.

To me, while I like that, it’s also a bit of a curse. I’ve put much thought and effort into gaining all the experience, and have a plethora of women to choose from — however at the end of the day my overall social life sucks.

I'm no heart surgeon. Can't solve Quantum Physics. I'll never write the great American novel.

But I'm pretty good at drinking beer.

I am great at my job. The problem is it's very niche, if I ever get canned, my immediate options are pretty limited.

No. It's not too late. I felt the same way my whole adult life. Then at 46 I discovered not only was I pretty good at something I'd always enjoyed, but I was really good. And with effort I had the ability to become great at it. Keep looking. You'll find it. It might be right under your nose.

I have ADD, so I'm a jack of all trades, master of nothing. I get bored and move on before I get great at anything.

I'm amazed by people who can be passionate about something their entire life.

I was great at something
I loved it, to the point that I was was willing to sacrifice my health and 2 marriages in order to be able to do it.
In the end I was so damaged I could no longer walk on my own or lift my kids up to hug them. Multiple concussions left me with occasional seizures and re occurring optical fade outs.
I was forced to retire.

In the 3 years since then I have tried to make up for years of being a long distance father and husband, recovered some of my mobility, and the most serious of the neurological damage seems to be slowly fixing itself.

But when I’m alone with my thoughts I miss it terribly.

I was great at golf, for one summer day, for about 4 hours back in 1975 when I set a course record. After that it was all downhill.

Before shoulder surgery, I was great at Carnival games. Won a bedroom full of stuffed animals from amusement parks, mostly Busch Gardens Tampa.
All have been given away except for two giant tigers, and a large bear.

Mrs Rabinowitz thinks I’m a great guy. That’s what matters.

I sucked as a father. Have one failed marriage. Been fired from most of my past jobs. Despised by my daughter and my ex. Never made much money. My picture is not hanging in any offices or schools in tribute to my accomplishments.

But amazingly Mrs R loves me. I still have family that thinks highly of me. I have a few friends who like me and one best friend who is also my shovel buddy. I have a son who will talk to me. And Jesus loves me.

I am very good at dry fly fishing for selective trout in slow water. I ran into some unique circumstances that allowed me to practice it a lot and closely study what was going on under repeatable, testable conditions. I developed some unorthodox techniques and my own fly pattern that outfishes everything I've ever seen. I also seem to just have a knack for it. On rivers I know, I outfish everyone on the river, every time in these conditions.

I'm not great at anything, don't know any magic tricks and I'm not an expert on any subject. I'm just intelligent enough to recognize that I don't even breathe the same air as smart people. I'm the definition of mediocrity.

I was great during the summer of '15 when I had the most famous stand of corn in the world and had my HOA curled up in the fetal position crying out for me not to hit them again.

World War II history

I could teach college classes on it.

I won the school spelling bee in 5th grade. Also won several awards for poetry.

Since those days, it seems I've only been great at pissing people off and fucking things up.
