    I can't drive. Not legally anyway. I think I can drive just fine though.

    I can't serve in tennis. Just can't do it. I'm totally competent once the ball is in play, but the best I can do is a half-hearted lob over the net.

    Me too

    I used to play in tournaments and it'd always fuck me over. Instead of my serve being the game that I'd usually win, it'd be other way around and I'd win more of the other ones.

    Can't drive either. Never needed to learn and pointless in London at the moment.

    I find it difficult to praise something as more than pretty good. It's either a northern or a British thing.

    Another non-driver here. I failed my test about a year ago, but was only learning so I could help out with the driving when we were travelling across the US. I much prefer a combination of walking and trains.

    Yeah I can't drive either. Get scolded as a weirdo for it by friends, so nice to see I'm not alone. It's pointless if you live in a city as Kiko has said, but it's pretty limiting in terms of seeing nice bits of Scotland.

    I can't drink juice slowly. If I have a glass it's usually gone in a minute.

    I'm the same with every drink I have. It's a really bad habit I can't get out of. If I have a drink, I see finishing it as a job that needs to be done, so I'll just drink it as quickly as possible. Doesn't matter if it's water, milk, cola or beer.

    For the past 12 years I've lived less than 1 mile from a decent city train station (Birmingham and now Southampton). The only time the car is ever really used is for the big shop.

    These are just things that you haven't attempted or learned to do properly ('I can't play the violin'), rather than normal things you ought to be capable of doing.

    Can't drive either.

    I'm expecting to have my car drive for me in 10 years, so I can't be bothered when I don't need it at the moment anyway.

    I've got a mental block when it comes to the parts of speech, I have to keep reminding myself which is an adjective, verb and noun. Anything past that is completely beyond me, adverbs and prepositions and pronouns 'n' shit.

    I can't drink slowly, which makes going out with another person etc really awkward.

    I can't use a treadmill.

    I've tried but I start jogging like I've got one leg shorter than the other because I'm scared I'll fall off.

    I can't play cricket. Like, at all. Most sports I can at least cover the basics but with cricket I'm just a shambles and I don't know why.

    Likewise but with Squash. Played for 15 minutes but it felt like forever as I didn't actually connect with the ball once. Meanwhile, I'm a boss at badminton.

    I can never do anything early, always have to leave it until the last minute, not so much that I'm late or miss deadlines just won't start until it's absolutely necessary.

    I can also piss wherever you like, use an airport, drive a car, a forklift, and have a coastal/river navigation license. None of things leaves me incapable and while a treadmill might kill me it's because I'm terribly unfit. Come at me bitches.

    I can't do keep-ups (I think that's what they're called.) I am not too horrible at football but I simply can't do those. I look like a proper mong every time I try.

    I also have a pathetic sprint.

    Can't drive, although it's looking increasingly likely that I'll never actually need to (being in London, Uber + autonomous driving becoming a thing).

    I'm shite at reading maps. I get lost and turned around easy to the point of utter frustration.

    +1 for driving, though I might get a license this fall (only because it might be useful if/when we have kids).

    I can'r ski or ice skate either so I'm a bit shit at being Finnish.

    Swimming seems to be a big one that people say you just HAVE to be able to do. I'd no opportunity to learn when I was younger but I'd be interested in getting in a pool some day to see what it's like, though I assume a man on his tod in a swimming pool not swimming is automatically seen as a kiddy fiddler.

    +1 for cycling and ice skating.

    When I was 8 I was given a 60 CC quad bike so I threw my bike away, although I was rolling round Centre Parks when I last went on a tricycle which was fucking awesome. With skating I went once, after 30 minutes of my friends holding my hands around the rink they got annoyed and placed me in a little hut type thing in the middle and left me there until they were done.

    Ice skating is hardly all that common a thing.

    Not being able to ride a bike though. What the fuck did you do as a child?

    How was everyone else taught to ride a bike? I remember my uncle through marriage (now doing time for selling heroin to minors) putting me on a bike on top of a massive hill and just letting me go. Thinking back, it doesn't seem to be the most effective technique.
