8 things everybody thinks they're better than everyone else at

But they aren’t really. Sorry.

STAND BACK EVERYONE. The expert is here. You got this. Or do you?

Making an Excel spreadsheet/table

Photography

You’ve been developing an interest in photography over the last few months, and you think you might actually have a talent.

Getting a tan
