I just remembered another one:

Catching thrown M&M's in my mouth. If I can get to it, I can catch it.

I'm a bonafide master at Skee-ball (or whatever your local amusement park/Chuck-E-Cheese's/arcade calls it). Most plays give 9 balls. I make 7-9 of those in the highest point value ring (usually there are two, 100-pt. rings in each upper corner) every single game.

Not very practical, but fun to give a giant stack of tickets to give to a random child and watch their face light up.

I can distinguish different flocks of geese apart. I developed this skill back when I was herding geese in China at the age of 2. I figure, this skill is totally useless.

I've come to realize that I'm not ridiculously good at anything. Don't get me wrong, I can do a lot of things, but I don't excel at any of them. I take that back, the one thing I'm good at is when playing hockey I almost always can get his smack in the ass with a puck even though I'm 20 feet away from the goal. I don't know what it is, but I seem to have a puck magnet in my ass.

Tank Rushing in Yuris revenge has no real life application... but i am hella good at it.

Do you do it by throwing it really hard and having the top net shoot it into the hole or do you do it by rolling the ball at just the right speed and direction?

Street Fighter 2. I was placed 1st in a "national" tourney. Unfortunately, I beat everyone at the local tourney, then they compare high scores between all the Sega Time-Out arcades. Manager left before I found out how I did... However, there were multiple prizes for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, fastest KO, and highest score. I got 3 of those 5.

On the SNES, I could play "One handed". I'd let ppl pick my character and which attack I could use on L1 trigger, and crank the damage all the way down for me and all the way up for anyone else. (Only medium punch? No problem!)

At college, some guys at another dorm advertised a SF2 tourney in the college newspaper. I showed up unknown, and beat everyone... I was afraid to walk home... They were pretty pissed.

Totally worthless!

Moving silently, deactivating motion detectors without setting them off, vanishing ninja-style from the area, scaling vertical surfaces or objects most consider unclimbable, excellent bullshitter, mimic speech patterns and intonation frighteningly well, deceptively quick and powerful given my gangly frame.

Oh, and I'm an epic neffer.

Edit - Hmm. I guess none of those really fit the "that will never actually benefit you in life" disclaimer ... even neffing has its perks, as it's how I met the dude that got me my current job.

[NissanGurl]

perma-chinking my parents log home, can curl my tongue both ways, I can start with my hands behind my back...link/lock my fingers...and rotate my arms over my head back to the front without ever separating my fingers (could be useful if I'm ever in handcuffs I guess)

The rotating arms thing used to really freak out one of my friends (he'd immediately leave the room). I think I can only due this because I'm very flexible.

All the useless "skills" I can think of at the moment

Honey, I'd hardly call those "useless."
