Ram Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 I can solve Rubik's Cube in under 4 minutes. I hope to bring it down to one minute one day. :P Big deal, I can solve a rubik's cube in 15 secs Provided it started out being already solved. :D Actually, this post of reddy gaaru must be in the confessions thread under the title 'Nikred confesses to being a nerd.' :D

So, no I IZ not a nerd. :icflove:
Texy Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 I can eat a fish with hundreds of bones and clean it within 4 mins (common talent shared amongst bongs :D)
akshayxyz Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 - Once I set out to memorize 1000 digits of Pi. Got bored after 400, because it started consuming too much time , besides it wouldn't even get me in top-50 list :((. Also, it required daily repetition (even at work I would practice after every 2-3 hours) because I don't have any prodigious memorization natural gift. In fact I forget things easily. - Was top AoE (Conquerors edition) player in India...yes you can say "frog in well"/"one eyed king", as I was a nobody on world ladder. Testimony - even 2 years after I quit playing, I came back to win second place in sponsored tourney with handsome amount of money (70K INR). that is it for now, apart from few other crazy things I have done :).

Guest Gunner Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 I can drink a pint of beer in under 20 secs.
Sachinism Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 I can eat a fish with hundreds of bones and clean it within 4 mins (common talent shared amongst bongs :D) Yes I've noticed this among bongs and am extremely jealous. Love fish, hate bones
akshayxyz Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 ^ same here. It takes me 3-4 times more than my normal timing, if there is some fish with small bones. And still I manage to make a mess of it, leaving behind lot of meat on the bones.

You could have easily got your name in this list.
akshayxyz Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 You could have easily got your name in this list. This is just one online list. I am sure there are many more lurking in the wild. e.g. bottom-most in the list just 20 digits, which is equivalent to just two 10-digit telephone numbers.. Besides, as I said - it started consuming too much time (as I have no natural gift of memorization) and even with 1000 digits it does not get even top-50.

I can't even imagine how difficult it would be to memorize such a long sequence. :hmmm:
