I posted this question once when I was new here about a year ago when I had maybe 4 followers. Needless to say, I got no responses. The atmosphere is a bit different now, and I'll bet at least one person will answer. ;-)
What is something you admit - perhaps embarrassingly - that you don't know how to do, but should absolutely know by now?
I've met full-grown people who don't know how to do some of the following:
- Swim
- Change a tire
- Get their taxes done on their own
- Use a computer
- Balance a checkbook
- Jump a car battery
- Laundry
It's almost inexcusable, right?
Well, I'm certainly not one to talk because I've got one, too. For me, I can't cook if my life depended on it. Of all the adulty things I do, that is unfortunately not one of those things. If it wasn't for my better half, @jazzyfish, I'd starve.
Okay, so I'm not completely helpless, but if it doesn't come in a box or if it requires more than the microwave in most cases, I'm calling Domino's.
So let's see what you've got!

For me it's art. I took several art classes my last quarter in college. I needed to fill some electives. Not only did I find out I was really bad at it, I found out that it was way harder than I though. Literally one of my worst grades in college was a drawing class.

Me too... i see persons drawing by hand beautiful sketches and drawings, creating paintings, and all i can do are the same draws as when i was 5 years old.... :(

What's interesting about your comment is that I back when I used to want to be able to draw by hand, I did a lot of studying on it to try and learn techniques (I failed miserably at this, so it didn't last long). During that time one of the things I learned is that if you don't practice it constantly, you never get better than when you last did it. So if you haven't concentrated on improving your drawing abilities since the age of 5, then at the age of 35 you'll have the same skill level.

To build Robotics, as much as I love it and love the idea of it for some reason I never really got to learning it and doing it for myself. Perhaps a goal for years end and into 2018?

Considering I write (and have written content as an actual job), I surprisingly do not know English grammar outside of the bare minimum of noun, verb and adjective.
Conjunction, Predicate, Superlative, etc.....no idea.

I'll let you in on a little secret: most of the rest of us don't either. I couldn't tell you what the hell a past perfect tense is supposed to be. I know quite a bit about grammar because English was my second language growing up, but verb tenses? Articles? Subjunctives? Yeah, no idea at all. If it sounds about right, I'm going with it.

I don't know deposit on a ATM. Its easy to just follow the steps but my anxiety and paranoid for typing one number wrong makes me recheck 1000 times every step that I end up screwing the operation. Im the kind of person who always ask for a hand to the guy working in the security next to the door. lol.

I feel like I need another set of hands - preferably a set employed by my bank, lol - handling my money and then handing me a receipt so I can place blame on someone else if there's a problem. :D

I've never sent a text in my life. Can't type worth a crap, can't go in a chat room cause the cotton picking item I'm answering to is gone out of sight before I get three words done. Can't use one of the new phones, mines an old beam me up Scotty flip type, computers scare the ......out of me. The seven thousand digit secret code Steemit gave me took me three hours to get it right, near had a nervous breakdown. Hell even my Bic stick has to have spell check on it. Won't go to self check out for fear of making a mistake and getting arrested. Was on Facebook once, asked me if my son could be my friend, havn't been on it since, that was ten yrs ago. All this crypto stuff baffles me.
