I can do vocal impressions pretty well. My top hits are Elmo from Sesame Street and an Essex Scouse.

Failure.
Learning names/ correctly guessing how foreign names/words are pronounced
I have a good musical ear, not in the way of perfect pitch but I can find nice chord progressions easily. Could call it musical visualization perhaps?
I'm good at fixing things. It's great for saving money but it's not that I don't like it, I just get tired of having to do it all the time.
I have really good hearing and I'm good at guessing pronunciation of people's names in certain languages.
I have fond memories of listening to conversations at the other end of the table at family gatherings. If we're out with a bunch if people, I'll listen to the various conversations.
I can get people to trust me really quickly, genuinely acceptance of others comes easily for me and they can feel it
I'm a quick learner paired with being stubborn enough to keep trying things until I gain success or I'm at least satisfied with my failure.
I can tell if it's not butter.

I don't believe you.
Self criticism
Mathematics, dance, and remembering song lyrics. I passed the first to all of my children and the last to two of them.
I'm ambidextrous and really good at tech support.
Getting wasted
My ability to whip a story up at the spot is pretty damn good. I run Dungeons and Dragons in a homebrewed world, and a good part of it is made up on the spot. While doing this, I always make sure to keep consistency.
The only thing I'm lacking is long monologues.... That is hard to just make up
