Anything. The more unusual the better.
I can draw a picture with my left hand whilst simultaneously describing it in words with my right hand on a separate sheet of paper. I thought everyone could do it but they can't. I can't write different things with both hands and I can't draw different pictures with each hand and I can't draw a picture and write something unrelated. But I can write a description of what I'm drawing with my right hand while I'm drawing it with the left hand. Try it (you have to do it simultaneously though).

By the way, you need an assistant to hold the 2 sheets of paper down, otherwise it slides all over the place.

You can't do it with a paint brush in the left hand and a pen with the right, otherwise you can't get the pressure right. It has to be the same media. Pencils are best.
Not that there have been times in my life when I've had too much time on my hands, you understand.....

i can wiggle my ears independently of each other.

and raise each eyebrow in a spock-esque sign that my curiosity has been aroused.

and i'm very, very, good at minesweeper...

I'm not bad with a pair of nunchaku. Hardly a talent though, more a case of training a lot.

I'm not sure if I can do it now but I used to be able to take a punch in the stomach from anyone who fancied trying. Actually, I'm fairly confident I can't do it now. 😉

I can piss off countless people on at least 4 different forums simultaneously - without even trying.

I am hoping that [b]of[/b] is meant to be an [b]on[/b] rather than an [b]off[/b].

I can set my camera / flash up for any given situation without removing my eye from the viewfinder. Again - not so much a skill as lots of training.... I can also pick my nose, or touch the underside of my chin with my tongue.

I think I might be a bit sad.

I know how to mix a certain amount of a certain reddish blue into a certain amount of a certain amount of a blueish yellow to attain a certain type of blue, automatically.

jebus! my left side's only there for symmetry and holding-things-until-the-right-hand-needs-it (non-puerile).

But, I offer up "Autistic Spelling" (I like to think of it as "Japanese no-mind", but i can't remember which film/book/myth i've stolen it from.)Should someone ask how something's spelled, it's far quicker to roll my eyes back, go blank and rattle off whatever the brain dictates - it's pretty much always right. It's the only way I can do maths too, and though it's generally wrong, it's near enough that I can reverse engineer the real answer.

I've no idea how this special power will save the world, unless maybe one day the fate of humanity rests upon how many esses there are in "lose" (pointed look at the populous of the internet)

conversely, a blunderbuss approach to punctuation and disregard for capital letters does me fine (pre-emptive)

i didn't think Spasmic Tiny Cucumber would fit, Michael J Fox's Tiny Cucumber was the dream euphemism - iffy ethical territory though..
