Weakest points:
There's many.
I'm atrocious at sports and physical activities. I'm not handy at all. There's a lot of stuff, particularly in more advanced math and science, that I don't know much about. I don't watch much TV or many movies compared to most people, and end up with little to say when the topic comes up. I know nothing about cars.
Strongest points:
I'm modest enough not to mention them ๐
If someone is talking about stuff I just nod and then they go "oh you know about that" and I go "nah. No idea". Usually makes them laugh.
If it's a one-on-one conversation, I tend to ask questions about whatever it is.
Unfortunately, this sometimes leads to them thinking I'm actually far more interested in learning about their GX-Holden-whatever than I really am, and they decide to tell me all about it next time we meet as well... ๐
