Friday OT - Are you an expert?

[3TrueFans]

I'm an expert at pointing out people's inadequacies.

Oh Janny....I'm so sorry.

While at ISU, my wife's sister was an AO-Pi member and always had computer problems. Word got out around the house that I was good with fixing computers (mainly software) and wound up helping out others. Therefore, I was granted the title "AO-Pi's Computer Guy."

Outside of that, i'm also the "fajita master" for both sides of the family.

 

[CloneHead]

I am an expert in Excel and have written a lot of VBA code and have done some custom functions.

I am also an expert in learning curves and understanding the mathematics of learning curves.

smoking pork ribs (typically St. Louis ribs)

Actually I just said that to get in on the competition and taste of bunch of ribs.


My true talent is drinking a beer (held by my left hand) while mowing my yard, steering the mower with my right hand! Pretty bad ***, I know!

On what topic do you feel like you're an expert, an aficionado? Anything from cars to making quesadillas, it doesn't matter - what's your "thing" on which you feel like you can speak as an authority?

I, for one, can make toast better than just about anyone on Earth. You should all be jealous. Also, I know a lot about car seat safety.

I am not jealous since I have the greatest toaster ever made, the 1949 Toastmaster 1B14! It was a wedding present to my parents (sold for over $20 back then, not cheap) and shipped off to college with me when they got a newer looking piece of modern crap. Today it sits on the counter of my very contemporary kitchen as an everyday working heirloom that will give your toaster a run for its money!

I can fall asleep pretty much anywhere, any time.

I spent a few summers touring with Colts Drum and Bugle Corps. If you can sleep in a cramped bus seat, or a gym floor, you can sleep anywhere.

Can you fall asleep standing up?

 

[ISUCyclones2015]

I'm also a beast at Madden. But I suck donkey balls at NCAA but I enjoy NCAA more. I've even beaten a friend using a NFL Europe team vs the All Time Steelers. I beat him by 70. He turns around and beats me by like 40 in NCAA.

 

[CycloneYoda]

Tecmo Super Bowl and rum.

 

[HoopsTournament]

Are you single or is she a deaf mute?

Happily married for 20 years. And she can talk. She just chooses not to.

 

[CyArob]

I'm an expert in making and remembering keyboard hotkeys for various programs. Also, minesweeper. I can beat anyones times in minesweeper.

Okay, that does look pretty sweet, but it's all about technique. I smell a toast-off.

Seriously, though, I bet that looked fly in your dorm.

Data. Dang, now everyone will want to hang out with me.

 

[wxman1]

Expert is a relative term. On here the only thing I am an expert at is aviation related topics.

Can you fall asleep standing up?

My co-worker had an employee who was an expert at falling asleep, but the standing up thing was his huckleberry. He fell asleep standing up, running a machine, and someone happened to witness it...said it was like a tree being fell (if that tree happened to be an Iowa fan with an enormous gut)...just straight over backwards. Funniest thing is my co-worker had to fill out a safety incident report about it because he bumped his head on the way down. (nothing serious...I mean, that wouldn't be funny)
