Chess. Probably because I just don't give a fuck.
Not having ADD even though "there's a pill for that"
Fighting games, playing any instruments, not pissing people off, having any chill
Tactical RPGs. I try every now and then to play a fire emblem game and I just straight suck ass.
Getting the seeds out of a pomegranate, I've tried literally every method and I'm convinced every video that shows people doing it is fake.
I also cannot sing and clap at the same time.

Eyeballing the amount of liquid I've poured out
For some things I can do it okay, like "measuring" vanilla extract or how much oatmilk or water for my tea but I work in a lab and regularly waste reagents/media because I think I'll need way more than I do
I'm a cook and an absolute eyeball champ, labs seem like they'd need much more precise measuring.
Oh yeah for most things they are extremely precise and I don't eyeball that but for less precise things I am completely lost
Like I'll actually need maybe 20 mLs of something and pour like 50 or more and have to dispose of the excess because I can't eyeball for shit
Volume is hard to eyeball
Geography. Just awful
You're probably better than you think at it. It's not just maps, it's kind of an umbrella subject, it's also how people interact with different places differently throughout history and currently, most social sciences fall under the broader geography lense.
Compassion for others where it isn't useful as a bludgeon against the right.
Almost everything.
