People Break Down Which Activities They Wish They Were Really Good At
The list of what I wish I was better at is long and arduous.
I've tried many things, but sticking it out is my issue.
I know I'm not alone there, though.
That is a universal theme.
We all have the desire to be great at everything.
But let's take them one by one.
Then we can do it all.
Maybe with more practice.
Redditor DecentIllustrator439 wanted to know what things we all crave to be accomplished at.
"What do you wish you were really good at?"
Sports. Even a simple sport would be nice to be decent at.
Say Hello
Valentines Day Love GIF by Super SimpleGiphy"Making friends."
rocky_iwata
"Damn I feel you. Realized a few years ago that I haven't made a friend in years and also had trouble keeping the ones I had due to neglecting. Worst feeling."
JoinAThang
$$$$
"Making money."
Jalo141
"Saving money!"
me0tch
"My answer was simplifying, articulating, and solving complex problems or ideas. I think it’s the most incredible thing listening to people at work or in life that confidently frame up complex ideas and just 'get it' and the money usually follows. I’m with you."
slugvegas
Play On
"Playing the piano or a guitar. I am 56 there is no reason for me not to try but instead I waste an hour on Reddit."
PlantationCane
"I've been playing guitar for about 25 years and still not very good at it. But I enjoy it, even if nobody else enjoys hearing it. Would have been nice to have been good though."
TLMoss
"Guitar teacher here. I have students ranging in age from 7 to 73. It's never too late."
ApollosBrassNuggets
"I started playing piano for 10 months now am 29 and i always keep reminding people that it's never too late just go for it we live one life so don't have any regrets!"
Lothric_21
quality of life...
"Finding work that both satisfies my soul and pays handsomely. The quality of life is just so poor when you hate your work. And life sucks so bad when you are just scraping by money-wise. I've been seeking this holy grail my whole life. Still haven't found it."
mom_with_an_attitude
"May I suggest manufacturing, I just got into this field after working in food/retail my whole life and I love it. I assemble medical devices, and mainly I cut the tubing. I love it, no customers I just sit and listen to music and chill."

Speak On
Episode 17 Language GIF by The SimpsonsGiphy"Languages."
Effective_Mention_29
"People don’t realize how helpful it is to know more than one language. It does nothing but benefit you."
twiride
Language is essential. Like why do we even have PE? More languages.
Success
Meme Reaction GIF by Robert E BlackmonGiphy"Stop procrastinating. 🙃"
BeamR265
"To be honest, I wouldn’t mind being really good at procrastination. I feel like it would make me a genius level multi-tasking person capable of completing any assignment the day its due."
CheekclappinSSJ
Louder
"Singing. Love to do it, but sound like a dying cat."
GeezerEbaneezer
"I’ll second that. I started dating an avid karaoke fan a few years ago. Between lots of repetition and her coaching, I improved from abjectly miserable to almost mediocre. I think I’ve hit my ceiling though, LoL. Basically, I still suck."
DWright_5
"I’m an avid karaoke person (though not your avid karaoke person) and I just wanna make sure this message has made it to you. Karaoke is 90% about having fun, and 10% about vocals. If you’re having fun, you’re doing karaoke right."
Battle_Me_1v1_IRL
No Cares
"Not caring what others think."
Smooth-History1916
"I think it will come with age, when you realize not many really actually care about you, you stop caring too!"
Sepined
"Once you master this life gets a LOT more fun. I love being the middle aged man at the light with the windows down singing along to Brittney. And once you can own it, most actually stop judging."
Lazerith22
100,000% a muscle
"Remembering things about other people. I always forget birthdays or anniversaries and stuff so when it comes to doing anything meaningful for the people I love it’s often too late or half-a**ed."
stoned_kitty
"There are stories of famous people who would write down anything they learned about a person and keep a rolladex of cards with the info on it. When they go to see them again, they pull their cards out… it’s kinda creepy but it works."
descendency
"As someone who never once memorized a thing in his life until he got to college, memory is 100,000% a muscle. The more that you intentionally remember things, the easier it becomes."
LoftySmalls
All of it...
life GIFGiphy"Life. I'm bad at life."
moreoddermatt
"No one's good at it.🤷 We are all trying to figure it out while being a decent human being."
fluffycumulusclouds
The pursuit of knowledge is an admirable one, even if it's something really specific or something just for fun.
What would you add to this list? Let us know in the comments below.
Nudity. Naked bodies. Birthday suits.
It's all a part of life.
So why are so uptight?
Redditor BolognaAnt wanted to hear about the times we've all shown a little skin amongst friends.
"Have you ever gone nude in front of your friends? What was it like?"
I've only been naked at the gym and with my initmates. So I guess I'm bland.
Who Cares?
Atlanta Braves Win GIF by MLBGiphy"Yes weekly for football and occasionally swimming. No one cares."
HowtoUninstallSkype
Numb
"Play hockey, shower after the game. People are hanging out everywhere. All different sizes. Nobody cares."
BassGuy11
"Woman, played mens hockey my whole life. I’ve seen too many naked men that I never wanted to see. Hockey boys really don’t care."
jjeenniiffeerr
"Yep grew up playing hockey, kind of get desensitized, eyes front or high and you got no issues, but no one likes the guy who got his head down in the showers."
KittenLOVER999
In the Army
"Yeah, being in the military its kind of unavoidable, and you get used to it."
specterthebatpone
"The military taught me 2 things."
"1) how to be comfortable with my sexuality to an unnerving degree..."
"2) how to make dudes not comfortable with their sexuality extremely uncomfortable. Number 2 provided endless amounts of entertainment. I regret nothing."
jhagen13
"Yeah even having conversations and making eye contact in the showers was normal. LOL."

People are weird with nudity options.
Naked Everywhere
Family Guy Dolphin GIFGiphy"I live in Finland, a country where nudity isn't a big thing. Whenever we go to the sauna together, if we are not going swimming, we are always butt naked. It's really not a big thing here."
More-Mixture1453
In the Scene
"I was in a play in college and had to do a nude scene. All my friends, my parents, my GF at the time and her parents/family. The scene took place in a doctor's office, so it wasn't anything sexual, but def a strange experience greeting everyone after the show."
Perfect-Distance9
"Same - I used to do a lot of theatre in my younger days. Got naked every night for 2 weeks in front of friends and family in a relatively small city where you know everyone. It was awkward, but my co-star was HOT, so I thought 'no one’s looking at me anyway.'"
andyinmelbourne
RUN!!
"Junior year summer. Me and my 5 friends 3 guys 2 girls went skinny dipping. I chased my friend down the street a** naked running as wide-legged as I could."
"Edit: told my buddy about this comment and he wants you all to know, he has seen me chasing him like that in his dreams throughout the years on occasion."
37BiscutsInMyAn*s
Downhill
"Went to boot camp, got naked in front 60 other grown men every day. The first week was super awkward y'know we were all getting used to each other. But then one day someone just ran in there and started spinning his member like a helicopter and it all went downhill from there."
Careless-Review-3375
Towels ON
"When I was in high school we had a mandatory swimming class, so for the first time unlike regular gym class we had to fully replace our clothing. I had no idea what conditions would be like at first, so going in I did the smart thing: wore my swimsuit under my clothes. But getting out of the pool I was freezing and panicking and realized I still had no idea what the expected protocol was."
"So I just stood at my locker for a while and eventually got the nerve to pull my suit off, with half the class standing there Apparently my friend figured out something was wrong and just as my trunks came down, he wrapped a towel around me and pulled me to a stall, that I hadn't noticed existed."

Dream on...
Game Show Dancing GIF by NBCGiphy"I had a dream that there was a game show I was on and I was nude and people took a vote on how much they liked it and at the end whoever wanted to would be picked by me to be my friend."

So, how comfortable are you in your own skin?
Do you have similar experiences to share? Let us know in the comments below.
Usain Bolt's 9.58 second 100-meter dash at the 2009 IAAF World Championships.
2,019 people performing "mattress dominoes" in Rio De Janeiro in 2019.
Audra McDonald's six Tony award wins and being the only actor to win in all four acting categories.
These are only a few of the most notable, and unusual world records that have yet to be beaten.
Records some even think might never be beaten.
Redditor badblackguy7 was curious to hear what other world records people think will never be broken, leading them to ask:
"What is a record, sports or otherwise, that will likely never be broken?"
Let's hope so!
"FDR being elected US president 4 times."- holyhellnothingworks
Unbroken thanks to modern technology
"The Lion King as the highest VHS sales of all time."- Fawqueue

Do NOT try this at home
"Oh I know this one."
"When I was a kid, we had a Guinness book of records lying around that we liked to browse in while bored."
"There was this one guy in it who held a record for most bikes eaten."
"No, you did read that right."
"He ground up a bike and slowly consumed it over I don't know how long a time."
"The record was accompanied by a note that no further records of bike eating would be accepted, as it was deemed too dangerous."- Picajosan
GiphyThey made sure this will never happen again
"The longest professional tennis match of all time."
"John Isner vs Nicolas Mahut at Wimbledon 2010."
"It lasted 11 hours 5 minutes, spanning 3 days of play, with a final score of 6-4, 3-6, 6-7, 7-6, 70-68"
"It was already nearly twice as long as the previous record holder."
"The reason it will likely never be broken is that every professional tournament except for one, Roland-Garros, now has tiebreaker rules that limit the number of games that can be played in final sets."
"Although it’s hypothetically possible at RG, clay court tennis is not at all conducive to the serve-and-volley style of play that led to the insanely long 5th set of Isner-Mahut."- MSims2992
"California here I come..."
"The current record for the Cannonball Run, a drive from NY to LA, is about 25.5 hours."
"It was set in May of 2020, and the drivers were able to make use of the lack of traffic due to the pandemic to break the record."
"Barring another similar world changing event, traffic conditions will probably never be what they were when that record was set."- SexyNeanderthal
Any other challengers?
"Aleksandr Karelin."
"Greco-Roman wrestler."
"887 wins to 2 losses."
"Entered 9 world championships and never lost a bout in them."- minorboozer
Loop Spinning GIF by WWEGiphyWinning is just showing up.
"Glenn Hall played 502 consecutive games as an NHL goalie."
"Zero chance that will ever be broken, goalies these days rarely play more than 3/4 of an 82-game season, let alone numerous seasons without a night off."- ButtholeQuiver
Whoosh!
"Surprised no one mentioned the unlimited water speed record."
"The current unlimited record is 511.11 km/h (317.59 mph)."
"Achieved by Australian Ken Warby in the Spirit of Australia in 1978."
"It hasn’t been broken to this day due to how dangerous it is to go at those sort of speeds on the surface and plenty of people have passed away trying."- Sliiated
"I'll be waiting, waiting for you..."
"The longest non consecutive billboard 200 album streak belongs to none other than, The Dark Side Of the Moon by Pink Floyd."
"It currently has been on the chart for 962 weeks."
"Second in line is Legend, by Bob Marley and the Wailers, at 733 weeks, meaning Marley and the wailers would need almost 4.5 years of time on the charts, with Floyd being absent, in order to take the number one spot."- Floyd-Van-Zeppelin
moving pink floyd GIFGiphyLess Than Glorious Distinction..
"Boy do I have some!"
"I don't know if this was posted before, but the record fastest penalty ever received in F1is held by Sebastian Vettel."
"He got a penalty just 6 seconds after his debut in F1 for speeding in the pit lane."
"After his FP3 problems, the team then reverted back to the FP1 unit but changed to a new turbocharger, control electronics and MGU-H, resulting in him getting a 70 place penalty."
"Only 22 cars on the grid."
"Out of the 24 cars that started, all 24 were running at the chequered flag."
"The 'honour' of bringing up the rear fell to Narain Karthikeyan, whose 24th place remains the lowest finish in F1 history."- thatoneF1fan

"That one flip by the Russian gymnast."- TerpQueenLA
Bullseye!
"Phil Taylor's 16 world championship wins."- Ziri97
Nothing But Net!
"Bill Russell's 11 NBA championships."
"Only his teammates are close because of his dominance with a few at 10."
"The man they crown the GOAT only had six."
" LeBron and Curry are still miles away with their best years in the rear view."
"Even more impressive is Russell's championship winning efficiency."
"84.6% of his career he was a champion(11/13)."
"The highest efficiency and a near impossibility to beat unless they sneak a cyborg in there at some point."- Emergency-War7360
GOAL!!!!
"Largest winning margin in a legitimate and contested professional football match."
"Arbroath 36-0 Bon Accord."
"This took place in a Scottish Cup first round tie in 1885."
"Some interesting facts about the game:"
"Arbroath keeper Jim Milne did not touch the ball then entire game and 'spent most of the match sheltering from the rain under a supporter's umbrella'."
"
Arbroath had 5 goals disallowed."
"Arbroath player John Petrie, 18 at the time, holds the joint record for most goals scored in a legitimate, professional football match with 13."
"Not so much to do with the record but while this game was being played another Tayside team was playing an Aberdeen side in the form of Dundee Harp vs Aberdeen Rovers."
"That match ended 37-0 according to the referee who was thought to have lost count and was corrected by the Dundee Harp secretary who had only counted 35 goals go in for his team."
"The Lower total was submitted to the SFA and so the record was set by Arbroath that day and not the Harp."- andrewtaskerr
"Football."
"5 goals in 9 minutes by Robert lewandowski."-
The Dawn Of Influencers...
"Most YouTube channels with 100k subs by an individual."- Ziad21Al
There is a likely chance that these records will never, in fact, never be broken.
But one has little doubt that people will continue to try.
And power to anyone attempting to sell more video cassettes than The Lion King.
Getting older is inevitable.
Like everything else on the planet, over time the human body suffers the effects of wear and tear.
Joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons, teeth, etc... are put through the ringer and eventually it begins to show.
Things we used to do with ease suddenly aren't so simple.
Redditor iamalsopizza asked:
"What did your body tell you that you had to absolutely stop doing?"

"Pulling all nighters for any reason. My body will not tolerate it anymore."
- Eccentric_Mermaid
"I used to do it every weekend as a teenager, with help from Monster, my PC, and some of the fine programming on Adult Swim."
"Last time I tried as an early 20s adult, I passed out sitting straight up. I'm pretty sure now Monster just puts me to sleep."
"Last successful all-nighter I survived until 6 AM. I still woke up at 8:00 on the dot, on my day off. Thanks work."

"I had diarrhea so bad, I was almost in starvation mode when I got to the ER. Turns out, there's a tiny hole in my something and it was leaking waste into my body which gave me an infection."
"Been here 5 days, now. I have a straw in my belly which is draining the infection so the antibiotics can work better."
"Every time I look at it, I'm grossed out and wanna slap myself. I'm never touching a drink again in my life. F'k that."

- IreallEwannasay
"I use to take pills all the time to get high when I was going through some sh*t in my early 20's that I didn't really know how to handle at the time."
"Well one day while doing the pills, my body just said 'no more' and I projectile vomited everywhere in my room and bathroom. It got on the walls and floor. I was living with my parents at the time and blamed it on food poisoning or something like that."
"I tried again every day for like a week and each time I just threw them back up."
"And that's how I got clean off these pills. Drug free to this day!"

GiphyEnergy With A Side Of Palpitations
"Drinking Bang energy drinks, last one I had turned me into a panicking rage monster, whole time I thought I was going to die my heart was beating so fast and irregular."
- CaptnRiggen
"I used to work a day job till 6p M-F then work security at bars Thur-Sat from 10p-3am."
"One night I drank two of those 4-Hour Energy drinks. The second one was more of a 'Wonder what would happen?' more than I needed it."

"I never touched that stuff again. That was before I really looked closely at the nutrition labels. Now I always look at them."
‐ lipp79
"I had this with Redbull—my first time drinking it and I never touched it again."

- QuendaQuoll
"I used to work overnights at a store that sold 4-Hour Energy at the counter. My coworkers and I would guzzle them to get through the night shift."
"I always felt that same sensation of irregular heartbeat for hours and the crash afterward was unbelievable."
- jellyrat24
Calm Down
"Being stressed."
"I'm at the age now where I realize that controlling my stress level is an actual physical health issue."

"I finally broke down and went to the Dr about it this year. He said, 'You take anything for that?' I said, no. He said 'You probably should'."
"I was hoping maybe he was gonna fix me. Refer me to a joint specialist. Possibly see about surgery."
"Apparently after a certain age they dont really do that anymore and I now see why Aleve commercials are mostly targeted toward older people. Cause some disinterested Dr said 'You should probably start taking something for that'."

People Explain Which Activities They Hate That Everyone Else Seems To Love
There are some events and pastimes in life that everyone can't get enough of, and I wish they would just go away.
For the life of me I sometimes cannot understand the things that make people satisfied.
I swear there are people who like newborns, could just stare at sparkly objects.
And for them that could be a full day.
We have to agree that there are some activities that have outlasted their prime.
Let's investigate...
RedditorWinstonChurchillinwanted to hear all the popular things that need to come to end soon, but too many people won't let them die. They asked:
"What do others enjoy that you find painfully boring?"
Sports. All sports. Not my tea. And after all the controversies and injuries, haven't we seen enough?
Going Places
Happy Jennifer Coolidge GIF by HBOGiphy"Going on vacation and not exploring the area. So many people I know just want to sit at the beach or pool or just shop all the time. If I'm going somewhere new, or even slightly familiar, I'm going to places I can't at home."
thatsaSagittarius
Who Cares?
"Anything that has to do with celebrities outside of what projects they are currently working on. Oh god, my friend's wife is the worst. We were watching the Superbowl and she's more excited about which players wife is sitting next to who than we are about the game."
"The whole damn game she's rambling on about whatever the f**k it was the girlfriend or wives or kids of the players were up to over the last year. And it isn't just football, its always about what famous person's kids went to the school her dad's friend teaches at or what local restaurant her friend saw some famous person's girlfriend's brother at. WHO THE F**K CARES!?"
hotrock3
I've Stopped Listening
"Talking about someone I will never meet or get to know well. When the story doesn't even involve the speaker or anyone I know, I most likely will not be able to remember any of the information. I'm just so absolutely not interested in strangers."
Agonist28
"Yes! Especially the minute they start going 'so and so talked to such and such who met him…' You bet by the time they mention the third person, I’ve tuned out."
Delta_Eridani
Same Game
"Sport games like FiFa."
Dark_Angel45
"Same crap different year at its best. yeah how about you guys hype it up for 2 months before the game launches and preorder it then cry how bad the game is giving us more publicity and also pay 10 bucks if you wanna play this new mode."
salt_pizza9491
"I basically play sports games only when there's company around. For me they are for casual playing with the group of friends on the couch. They are not bad (ok few last EA games are like shi*) but i cant play them alone. Thats whats story games are for."

"I only go fishing if I’m gonna be eating it for dinner."
CrispyMilk69
I like Fiction
"Reality tv, especially talent shows. You have the out-of-touch, famous judges trying to look relative and at least one that overdoes the whole angry person schtick, the less talented contestants that try to use tear jerk background stories (with the obligatory sad background music) to win over viewers and some occurrence later on that is supposed to make us feel all uplifted. And for some reason, they all seem to be hosted by presenters with the most punchable faces imaginable."
BudovicLagman
Buy a house!
"Weddings."
Tasty-Bee-8339
"God yes. I am a 50 year old happily married middle class woman and I hate weddings. Boring! What a waste of money. Have a small service of your choice and then a party. And all of the stupid trends with favors and photo booths and the crappy DJs (I live in Oklahoma — they’re all crappy). Feh. Spend it on the honeymoon! Buy a house!"
Mouse-Direct
All of it!!
"Everything pretty much. I've got ADHD. Even most video games are boring to me. The only thing I love is learning new stuff. But sadly, not in the depth. The result is that I know A LOT, but I don't know anything that could be used as a tool to make money, sadly. For example i know basic orbital mechanics, and at the same time how cyber criminals work."
"Also i know history, mathematics, basic chemistry, biomechanics of human body, dietary stuff. A bit of programming and CS. Psychology. Know quite a bit about politics, geography etc. I just wish i could concentrate more on one thing, so I can actually monetize my talents."

Chat it Up
Mean Girls Gossip GIF by Paramount MoviesGiphy"Small talk, Gossip, or constant social interaction."
"To me there is a huge difference between small talk and social interaction. Social interaction between me and a friend is almost never small talk. And I freaking hate small talk, though I like to socialize with friends."
Comfortable_Novel_89
Immaturity
"Fart jokes... even from middle school, the whole class will crack up if someone does the armpit fart thing, never made me laugh... and its not like I'm too uptight or sophisticated or anything, I'll laugh and have laughed for way more childish and immature jokes, guess I'm just immune to them particularly."
Not_Titan_Ananth
Silence is Golden
"Workplace small talk. 'Hey, it's Wednesday.' 'Yep, two more days until Friday.' 'Haha, yeah. I have coffee.' 'Me too.' So relieved I work from home now and don't have to listen to that inane prattle anymore."
HawaiianShirtsOR
"Same. I find it very hard to strike up a conversation but I can keep one going as long as everyone has something to talk about. I love talking to new people but I'm awful at starting up the chat."
Northerleyfire
We're Sort of Listening...
"Podcasts. So often it's just people chatting who have an opinion. Yes, the creators read something about the topic they want to talk about, but it often is dumbed down/an interpretation by them. And it often becomes just a stream of thoughts. I'd much rather hear a good audiobook (and I do that a lot). And yes I realise there are podcasts that are well structured and sourced, but then they are so close to an audiobook again, that I don't really see the purpose of a podcast."

Out of Attendance
"Church services. Specifically, catholic mass. My family LOVES attending mass, not just on Sundays, but on obscure high holy days, on weekdays, on vacation weekdays - I find mass incredibly dull, snd boring, snd slightly gross ( coughing lady giving out communion, having to shake hands with people who just sneezed or were scratching, ewww)."
Appropriate-Access88
LOL - NOT!
"Sitcoms."
Tremor_Sense
"There was a sitcom that looked really funny to me. Watched half of the first episode with laugh tracks. And it just made me feel nothing over jokes I would normally be laughing my ass off at. They ruin the show I don’t get why they used to be so common."
Kye_ThePie

"Chess. I'm an avid board flipper with my son. I make 6 moves, then flip the board and pieces in the air, and say 'Jesus Sam! You win! I can't f**king stand it anymore!'"
