/jp/ - Otaku Culture

I am an expert bbcoder

Tech related computer stuff like, hardware modding and programming, working with software, etc.

Other than that (and masturbating), I'm pretty talentless at anything else.

MATH

I know a lot of you guys who go to the flockmod draw threads are really good artists.

>>7141887
Help me with my homework...

Masturbating.

>>7141889
Make it quick. I'm trying to study for a dynamics class.

Nothing. I am literally good at nothing. I am average at best at anything, while being completely awful at worst.

I'm pretty good at complaining over the internet.

>>7141891
It's nice just to know your willing, it's fine. I don't want to bother you.

>>7141890
As in you can last really long? Or you have really long/nice orgasms?

>>7141896
You can post it if you want. It won't take me long I don't think.

I think you can tell by the fact that I'm on /jp/ I'm not taking this studying thing very seriously

>>7141884
No...Wait...
Let me try this again

I am an Expert BBcoder

>>7141892
Good at being mediocre?

But honestly, I'm sure your really good at video games or really polite or something?

>>7141900

I play video games all day and I'm still not good. I tend to be rude without realizing it, although polite too. I guess you could say I'm good at being a failure, but that's not much of an accomplishment.

I don't care enough to actually apply myself. So nothing.

>>7141897
I can last for hours then force myself to cum when I want.

I'm good at avoiding romantic relationships at all costs and at being a pet in my imaginary world.

Caffeine consumption and shmupping.

>>7141898
http://www.mediafire.com/?rgk4dcr9r4mpbrl

It's a pdf, I wouldn't be completely useless and I'll tell you what I've got so far...

First, one you do difference of perfect squares, than l'hopital's rule? Not so sure really...

2. a) is 3 I think, lim x->0- f(x) and x->0+ are both 3...
b) not continuous, because f(0) isn't equal to the limit?

3. I proved it, but I don't know how to explain why it's positive.

4. z= +-root(i+-root(2)i)) in Cartesian... so if I plot it, it's like a straight vertical line?

Thanks anyway...

But I really am good at sleeping, just not good at sleeping at normal times of the day.

I suppose being good at common sense is something to be revered considering this day and age.

Oh, oh wait, i'm really good at platformers and TBS games.

>>7141902
Maybe you haven't found something you really enjoy yet?

I'm good at procrastinating and being paranoid. Do they count?

>>7141915
Maybe you should stream some platformers for /jp/, like touhouvania 2 when the English patch comes out.

I'm sure everyone on /jp/ has above average IQ.

>>7141917

Video games are all I enjoy on a grand scale. That and performing dramatic monologues for no reason. I am an idiot and a fool otherwise. Some people like my writing as well but I think it sucks and I hate writing.

There is nothing I'm good at. Anything I have skill in I have a laughable level of skill in compared to anyone with real experience. Yet for some reason, I think I am somehow intelligent and better than most people.

>>7141902
>I play video games all day and I'm still not good.
Story of my life. Why am I such a loser?

I am good at dropping things cold turkey. I don't know if that's a legitimate skill, but with all the support group bullshit you'd think it was. I'm also good at fasting.

>>7141934
Maybe you need to broaden the range of the video games you play? Try some other genres, maybe some rts or tbs

>>7141927
You definitely sound like you can write. Maybe you should try something artsy, like photography?

>>7141941
I play all genres. I don't think you can really play all day and not, unless you think spending all your day on an MMORPG counts. But RTS games clearly show how shit I am, despite wasting decades on this.

>>7141912

Your 2 looks fine.
For 3, you need to find out (choose) which domain you're using for the inverse function. If the values on the domain are the same sign as the sign you choose then that's your justification. (I didn't actually do the details so that might be wrong)

For 4), they want it in polar coordinates. If you have the solutions, just use a calculator to find out what it is in rectangular form (a+bi)
Then to convert to polar form write as r*exp(i*theta)
where r = sqrt(a^2+b^2) and theta=arctan(b/a) (be careful about choosing the right inverse tangent, there are two possible thetas)

Admittedly for 1), I'm stumped. I don't see how using l'hopital's rule will help

Don't know if that helped much. I gotta go.

>>7141934
Because you play games for fun, not to be good. It's like doing a bunch of meaningless scribbles and wonder you're not becoming awesome at drawing.

>>7141929
I think of think like that too, I got into med school but I definitely don't deserve my spot, I can't keep up with my peers at all and I even failed Calculus 2 last semester, I'm suppose to get an GPA of H2A, but I am no where near... I said I would take 2nd year seriously, but I already started skipping lectures and all I do is browse /jp/ at home. I keep telling myself if I tried, I could do anything, be a doctor, etc. But I really was just lying to myself.

I'm 21 and I can't get an A on a high school exam. Meanwhile people years younger than me are in college. I'm not even one of those meatheads who are good at physical things, I'm short and weak. Kill me.

>>7141943

I've failed every endeavor of attempting art that I've done. It seems as if the things I hate doing are the things I was praised for, yet the people that give praise don't see the flaws that someone with more discernment would.

>>7141947

Perhaps it's because you lack focus of some sort. I'm not really sure. I don't play RTS or FPS games often, so I suck at those, yet I do about average for most other games I do play.

>>7141954
You're basically me except one year older. We can be failures together anon.

What sucks is that no matter what you're good at and how good you are at it, you can go to youtube and find a video of some 5 year old Chinese kid doing it better than you.

>>7141949
That might be true. I like to play games to 100% completion but after that I move on and don't try to be better in a competitive sense.

>>7141947
You must have you standards too high, you just think others are better than you, when they aren't. You are better than probably 80% of the world, if that counts for anything.

Biology... and that's about it. ;_;

>>7141957
You should find yourself a partner, you would be a good at making them happy? Or a good parent?

>>7141962
Biology is a lot of memory work, so you probably have a really good memory.

Samefagging.

That's all that comes to mind.

>>7141954
Blame society for ostracizing those without intellect, sociability or muscle.

>>7141959
There has to be someone at the top, it's just only one. That said, everyone who isn't the best of the best can relate to that.

>>7141966
>You should find yourself a partner, you would be a good at making them happy?
Isn't that the quickest way to get yourself dumped for being creepy and clingy?

I am good in riling up people in /jp. Because their EQ is lower than that of monkeys.

>>7141966

I don't really like showing people my personality. I prefer to be cold yet helpful, I like keeping a distance from others as I tend to be overly dramatic and annoying when I let myself go.

>>7141973
If you find someone who as fond of you as you are of them, things like "clingy", etc would not exist.

I hate it when anyone is better than me at the things I try to excel at, but everyone is and so I hate everyone. I think I use this 'normals' /jp/ thing as an excuse to despise most people to cover my true motives.

>>7141976
It's like you stole the words right out my mind.

>>7141976
>I prefer to be cold yet helpful
Goddamnit this. I fucking hate people but I love helping.

>>7141975
My EQ is much higher than my IQ which is already above average. Considering that I'm a NEET shut-in with no friends and a distant relationship with family members, EQ seems to be bullshit.

>>7141976
Hello me.

I'm good at home security.

>>7141989
How can I make my home secure? All my stuff is inside my room, but I fear people will steal from it when I leave it so I rarely leave. I used to live with family members who would steal things from me, as would their friends who would break and enter.

>>7141983

I don't really hate people. It's just that I don't want to annoy them, plus I've always admired those stoic, yet caring guys that prefer to use their actions to prove something rather than their words.

>>7141984
Try to talk with someone that matters, child.

>>7141977
Oh yeah I totally forgot.
I'm good at making the person I love hate me by being really really really clingy.
Sometimes I think I'm a yandere.

Im good at lying, or not.
I dont think anyone believes what i say anymore.

>>7141996
Clingy girls are cute though, so maybe you should become a trap.

>>7141996
I also think I'm yandere, or maybe even yangire. Any close relationships I've had seem to be unhealthy due to my actions, which can also be sadistic.

>>7141992
>so I rarely leave
You're already a pro.

>>7141996
I am good with making all of my friends my enemies, and those that love me hate me.

>>7142001
Ya I know that feel.That's why I've decided to give up that whole relationship thing.I'm much more happy when I'm alone

>>7141996
I'm afraid that showing any kind of emotional attachment to someone will end up hurting me or making me look like a fool in the end, so I'm more of a tsundere.

I think I'm pretty good at shooting games and very good at programming (C mainly, but I'm learning functional programming and I know OpenGL very well).

>>7142008

I've been called that before. I dislike that since I generally find tsunderes to be difficult to deal with and they tend to annoy me.

>>7142017
>difficult to deal with and they tend to annoy me
Well, you're posting in this thread, so that probably describes you perfectly.

I'm good at lying, evading questions, and hiding in plain sight.

>>7142026

Perhaps so. They just annoy me in a different way than I annoy myself or others I'd say though.

I pretty much fail at everything I do. I don't really have any talents of any sort.

>>7142038
That's pretty much me.

Writing, drawing, programming, computer repairs/maintenance, gaming.

I'm pretty good at not giving a fuck about things and generally taking it easy/being an apathetic fuck.

I don't think this talent is very useful in society though, but who cares about that.

I can make a pretty decent lasagne.

Well, I guess I could say that I'm good at putting others at ease.

I'm usually understanding and patient, but I can arbitrarily get demeaning. I do also become very ironic/condescending at times when I'm unable to reach people who can't understand what I think. I think those are all feminine traits.

I'm also good at cooking, but I would like to get better at playing the violin.

I was using a machine translator so I might sound like a total fool

I'm good at programming, making levels and maps for games and quite good at writing stories.

Useless piece of shit here. The only talent I have is to fuck up everything I try to do in the most pathetic ways. Anything that involves handwork or any kind of physical work is hell, my movements are just so awkward and my body just doesn't seem to move the way I want to.

At least I have my waifu, she understands my hardships.

>>7142060
What is your first language?

Being lazy

When you say you're good at programming, please tell what is your main language, so we can distinguish between FIOC/Java/.NET noobs and C/Haskell primaryfags.

>>7142065
Turkmen.
I had to use my secondary language which is Swedish . . .

I'm good at being able to type coherently (judging by everything I've seen on the Internet, that's a pretty rare ability) and learning foreign languages. Well not really, the only foreign language I really know is English but that's still fairly impressive considering how far remove it is from my native tongue. I'm also good at masturbating and reporting non /jp/-related threads such as this one.

Ok, I'm good at writing stories, making maps and programming in general, as for coding itself, I mainly code in Python because it's fastest to write in, and i rarely need anything with higher performance.
Aside from python I often code in bash and sometimes in C++

I am okay at cooking, cleaning and trying my best. I am bad at meeting people for the first time and getting things done when I need to.

I'm good at giving up drugs cold turkey and collecting random interesting shit over the internet, I'm also good at finding out information about things, like scan reading to find shit that directly relates to the topic at hand rather than taking in all the garbage words that get muddled in with it. I'm also good at mowing the lawns and uhh, that's it really.

I also make friends really fucking easily but they take advantage of my dorkish nature and start taking advantage. I'm also good at being alone, I never feel lonely.

>>7142075
And what is your native language?

>>7142104

Wait, I said that twice because I smoked weed a couple of days ago and I have brain fog.

It kinda hurts to know that all talents you possess are either entirely worthless, disgusting, or will never ever help you in this society.

Remind me why do we all alive again?

I think I'm fairly good with languages, I'm working on moon right now, which will be my fourth.

Also masturbation and staying alive.

Drawing, a useless talent really but I love doing it anyway and sharpening my skill. It gives me the illusion of productivity and keeps up my confidence. Because, even though I have the social skill of a turnip, I find comfort in the fact that I at least have some control at what's at the end of my pen.

I've got fucking autistic talents. I'm good with art, character design and storytelling, and I'm an astronomy and quantum physics whiz. Meh.

I'm also good at modding the shit out of things.

And sewing.

I'm very good at strategy games

>>7142136
That's commendable, maybe you could get a SWAT job.

>>7142136
How do you become good at strategy games? Study military history? Read books by genius tacticians? Or just play a lot of strategy games until it becomes natural to you?

>>7142149
I'd say the third, pretty much like anything else.

Even if I say so myself, I am excelent in tactical shooters. Im also pretty good in making shitcore, quite rare pair of ears are left unraped.

>>7142118
This little anon is right though. So sad, BUT..

>>7142091
This is really really utmostly awesome. Trying your best and being good in household chores is prettymuch the best anyone can do! Never stop trying.

>>7142124
To enjoy living.

im really good at team fortress 2

I can wax fucking poetic about political theory and moral philosophy. I'm fairly decent at the logic games portion of the LSAT. Also, I'm a pretty good shot, but not nearly as good as my friend in the Navy.

>>7142127
What other languages do you speak?

I'm good at talking the cops down.

They came to my place and wanted a look at the files on my computer.

I managed to get them to accept the loli porn because I was 'from' Japan and it was part of 'my' culture.

They left and I haven't been bothered since.

im good at video games, sort of. i can build a computer with really neat cable management even in a shit case.

I can type pretty fast yet still maintain decent grammar and spelling.

>>7142236
Where are you currently?

I'm good at Yu-gi-oh TCG. Does that count?

>>7142247
The United Kingdom.

They actually came to see if I was a terrorist because I ordered some chemicals to clean my dolls... but they saw my desktop background and decided to scan through my files as well...

And that was after they told me to strip my dolls naked.

"We're the police. Remove your clothes and your dignity."

>I know you guys are talented and clever people.
Certainly not me. orz

>>7142254
Good God, every times I hear about the UK....

>>7142260
Did you know they were armed?

They had their guns out when they knocked on my door.

But anyway I made a decision to change my lifestyle a week back. Deleted every explicit that could be construed as 'illegal' on my computer. Apparently I need lots of glucose to exercise self-control so I'm eating lots of chocolate right now.

I'm good at logical thinking and activities where success depends on logical thinking.

>>7142057
I wish I could try it. I'd show you my fried rice, it's pretty epic and filling.

I'm not talented at anything particular, I just have a better overall talent at everything than most people.

>>7142163
You don't mean cod right? Tactical shooters?

I guess I'm good at finding faults and writing correctly, and that's it.
Other than that, I'm quite literally useless.

Physical labor ends up in things being broken.
I can't learn programming because the volume of code needed to build something from scratch puts me off.
I am not clinically ill but I'm useless as a living being.

I'm talented at heavy armor sword fighting.

I don't do it anymore though.

>>7142299
Hardcore.

I'm good at bringing misery to those around me.

>>7142163
> tactical shooters

Such as?

>>7142091
Yeah same, I live alone in my house my parents gave me, I've been meaning to get stayins for ages but I just can't seem to want to live with strangers. But my place is absolutely spotless and everything is clean, it's probably because I spend so much time sleeping and cooking for one person is pretty simple too. I kind of wished I had a /jp/ anon to keep me company and try all my foods and stuff. I also have a lot of nice frilly dresses and stuff I've bought but never worn outside, so it'd be nice if I could share that with someone too.

>>7142321
Wait, you have your own house which you can let anyone stay in, and you'll clean and make food for them while wearing frilly dresses? Where's the catch?

>>7142327
penis

>>7142327
They are probably ugly? Or a guy?

>>7142329
Um, you might want to look over the question again, or maybe look up the definition of catch if you don't get it.

>>7142338
Do you live in Australia?

>>7142338
ｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗ

>>7142341
No way, I have arachnophobia.

>>7142360
But... frilly dresses... ;_;

>>7142360
But... frilly dresses... ;_;

>>7142321
I'll move in with you.

>>7142383
But I'm not young anymore... I won't be able to satisfy your needs.

I'm one of the best in the world at Smash Bros. Melee.

>>7142383
I guess I could get my little sister to visit more.

>>7142384
Hey, we can be bros. I'm a pretty flexible person.

>>7142321

Ill move in with you, we can wear frilly dresses together and have tea parties.

>>7142389
This. We'll be the Trappy Three.

>>7142385
Mango, Lucky, Dr. PeePee, Armada, M2K, Hungrybox?
I'm one of the better smashers of Australia, though...

>>7142236
>I'm good at talking the cops down.

They came to my place and wanted a look at the files on my computer.

I managed to get them to accept the loli porn because I was 'from' Japan and it was part of 'my' culture.
When was this? Recently (as in, after the loli is criminal parts of the Coroners and Justice bill came into force last year), or longer ago? Are you at least asian, or did you completely bullshit on the 'from Japan' thing? And just how extreme was the loli porn? Light nudity, typical Inuboshi like stuff, or harder fetish material?
I'm guessing from the police with guns turning up on something that could be weakly construed as possibly being involved with terrorism means you live in London itself.

I'm good at sports, talking to girls, and convincing people to buy real estate.

I am a master of cynicism and critical analysis.

>>7142429
autism

>I know you guys are talented and clever people.
about that...

>>7142310
Dragon rising, arma II.

>>7141924
People with above average IQ know that generalizations aren't good.

Nothing.
I'm a fucking idiot.

I am good at Martial Arts. Useless skill for a /jp/er since I never have to use it, but its a fun thing to be able to do.

>Illusory superiority is a cognitive bias that causes people to overestimate their positive qualities and abilities and to underestimate their negative qualities, relative to others.

You all suck at everything. Everyone here is deluded beyond help, stuck in their own little worlds, cut off from reality. You've even deluded yourself into thinking you're better off this way. But you're not.

I love you all.

>>7142447

I already admitted to being good at nothing. To say something like that stings even more.

>>7142447
I think people here are more prone to underestimating themselves. That's why OP had to discourage people from saying that they're good at nothing, or to joke about being good at some useless skill, many people here have some thing they're good at but are too humble to actually claim that they're good at it, and pretend to be worthless instead. And this humility eventually turns into accepting a life of worthlessness.

Not good at anything.

Web programming I suppose since it's what I do for a living.

Please don't patronise us...

Jack of all trades, master of none. I know a bit of everything but not everything from anything. I quickly get bored of things, especially if it requires hard work.

>>7142254
What the hell do you clean your dolls with, nitric acid and hexane?

Piano, cooking, programming.

>>7142684
Well I'm a southern asian (Filipino) mixed with some southern arab roots. The arab roots give me more body hair but other than that I look pure asian.

This was quite recently (ie. less than 6 months ago) and it happened when I was staying at on-campus accommodation at a scottish university.

The loli material was nothing too hardcore... although I must say I'm into psuedo-lolis or young teenagers/adolescents as opposed to prepubescent children. Takaya Ki stuff etc.

>>7142420
Well I ordered a little neutral plastic cleaner for £5 and they sent me this massive....... HUGE TANK of the stuff.

And I tried a bit of it with negative results (some evidence of bleaching or staining)... so I've gone back to the alcohol. Reason I chose this chemical was because it's neutral to the paints and alcohol or other plastic solvents will strip the paint. Unfortunately they included a dye which absorbs into the resin.

I study pharmacology, so I'm pretty good at understanding nutrition, health, and drugs. My family comes to me with questions on those things.

>>7142696
I was hoping for a name but I guess I'll live without ever knowing :<

I know how to play the Violin. Piano, I guess I kinda do, only thing I have a hard time with is the proper hand position. Honestly, how do figure out what finger goes where?

Other than that, I do not know. Maybe making tea? I always find the tea I make better than the ones other people make, except for my cousin's.

>>7142696
>This was quite recently (ie. less than 6 months ago) and it happened when I was staying at on-campus accommodation at a scottish university.
Oh, Scotland, you were actually fine then, no need to bullshit them. The laws criminilizing drawn pornography only came into effect in England, Wales and (I think) NI, people up in Scotland are safe until they bring in their own rules.

>>7142720
Practice. A LOT.
if blind and deaf people can play it, so can you.

I guess I'm good with languages. I only know German and Japanese, though. Other than that, I've pretty much failed at everything I tried. I wish I had the intelligence to study programming, or some sort of science. Chemistry is really interesting to me, but I'm too stupid. I really admire people who could understand it.
I draw too, but I'm hopelessly terrible at that. It's still fun to do occasionally, though.
I help people a lot, but I don't think that's a skill.

>>7142701
Not about to release information like that.

Anyway it should be really easy to identify who I am through a simple chronological search... I've released a lot of information on my identity and if you follow the cookie crumbs over the past years (and links are easily made between these seemingly random crumbs) you'll come to me.

But I'm absolutely clean now (except for my browsing history). Passed an enhanced disclosure check to meet HRH the Princess Royal... and I'm now employed by a child welfare agency working face-to-face with disadvantaged or vulnerable children and adolescents.

So not all /jp/ers become paedophiles you see.

>>7142720
Even concert pianists need to sit down and go through the fingering whenever they approach a new piece, experimenting until they find the most comfortable way, and writing down the fingerings for the parts that they needed to try out before figuring out. You'll get better at as you proceed, but it's at this stage it's most important to have a teacher, because there are so many mistakes you can teach yourself without realizing because you have no hint about how it's done.

>>7142738
I think he meant the name of the cleaner you used.

>>7142745
Brite Glass and Plastic cleaner.

>>7142750
bizarre they would hit you on that, I'd ask more questions but you seem uncomfortable so I'll just leave it at that.

Well, I seem to have a knack for sword based combat. Only held a foil twice, and my form and speed was better than that of someone I know with a similar build to me who has been fencing for 5 years. Similar things have happened with kendo and ARMA type stuff. Too poor to take up any of those things though outside of an amateur level though.
I also have some serious willpower and motivation when it comes to things I care even slightly about. Though, becoming more than apathetic about something is quite a task for me.

>>7142776
Ask away.

Like I said I'm clean (both on my computer and in my mind there's nothing I could be taken in for) and browsing logs are only kept for a period of two weeks.

Any exposure to incriminating evidence is purely from innocently taking part in places such as /jp/.

Touhou and IIDX, I guess.

Is fantasizing and daydreaming a talent?

>>7142918
I think so. A lot of people from the way they talk seem to have lost the power to control their imagination. I feel bad for anyone if that's really the case.

Fighting games, programming and math.

lurking

>>7142927
I'm probably one of those, just that I never had the ability in the first place. It was only recently that I realized that daydreaming is supposed to be something else than spacing out. I do envy people who can just get lost in their fantasies and have very vivid dreams regularly.

>>7142927

I feel that coming on with me. I used to be able to visualize things pretty well, but now it's starting to become foggy. I can still do it, but it's weakening. I might have emptied my head quite a bit and made room to memorize songs, because I can play many songs at will in my head. It's not perfect but it's pretty good.

I am godlike at all video games.

I didn't finish my pharmacy degree because I kept forgetting stuff I've already memorized all the time.
Dropped out and went for CompSci, about to fail again because obviously I suck even with math and abstract thinking. I have no idea what are you supposed to do when you're this stupid/worthless.
