Can anyone do something funny or a little out of the ordinary?
Something that could be called a special talent. Please list any here.

I'm quite good at imitating dialects and particular voices. And I practice pen spinning when I'm bored.

nothing too interesting - I am good at whistling tunes, I can rub my eyeballs without blinking and I can fool people into thinking I'm not ticklish (I am but I'm just really good at controlling my reactions)
- and I do that pen spinning thing as well.

freakishly high pain thresh hold
dont know where i get it from, brother is a whimp

Continuing the pain theme:
I have the ability to withstand music at rhino-stun volumes for long periods of time with few ill effects.
Does that count ??
BTW, I've always fancied doing the pen-spinny thing, but can't master it at all.

My special talent/ability, which i'm not sure i should even reveal, is that i have X-ray vision. I don't mean that in a geeky or facetious way, its a metaphor, and its true. It is partly why i'm not dead!

You have my attention...
Please elaborate.

@ Tiggi! To clarify what i mean, in the best way i can, its simply that i can see through people/read people. Some people have suggested it is a gift, but i decline that on the grounds of religious connotation. However, it has been pointed out to me that it is a bit odd as i can not only determine someone's character, but can also sometimes predict their actions and see some of their past actions. I am not some kind of cultist or "devil worshipper", its just something i can do, which i have narrowed down to my being able to do it is down to my intelligence. As for why it has kept me alive, simple! When i get stressed or need to prepare to deal with enemies at work, it helps to be able to see them for what they are, not what they would like to be seen as or try to be seen as. That is as far as i can elaborate for now as i can't think of any other ways to explain it. Hope thats good enough!!
