Easy things you suck at doing

Apparently, I can't sing. 
I also tie them up weird. I take both ends and make loops out of both of them, then I cross the two and tuck one under the other.
"Norms", apparently just make one loop and tie just the straight lace around it. Who are the real freaks?
Yeah, I don't tie my shoes like normal people. I basically make two loops and then tie them together like you would later do for doubleknotting. It's easier. I can tie it the other way, I just never figured out the point.
I can't whistle, and I have a hard time doing even basic math in my head.
I miss riding a bike. In the 80s I had a bike that my cousins built for me out of a bmx frame and schwinn handelbars with metal mags on the wheels. This was back when helmets were unheard of. Other kids made fun of you if you had so much as a chain guard on your bike. I'd be standing on the bar, "surfing" down the street with no regard for any kind of safety. Awesome times.
Skateboarding was never my thing, though. I had one, but I never mastered it. The first time I got on one I fell face first on the concrete and broke off a tooth.
No matter how hard i try i just can't spell my brain just rearranges the letters.
Which is probably the worst thing to suck at has it means you spend most of your life on the dole.

I'd suggest a splash of milk in the eggs instead of water. I've never thought to use water, though. I may have to try that if I find myself out of milk sometime when I'm making eggs.I prefer my eggs scrambled. I can't make them that way either. I always end up burning the damn things, and/or they stick to the $)(#*^ pan.
Coat your skillet with non-stick spray or butter before you begin cooking the eggs. If they're burning before they're done, you're setting the heat too high.
Also -- after you beat the eggs, but before you put them in the skillet, add a small amount of water to them and mix it in. This will make the eggs fluffier.
Also, I'd suggest immediately taking the eggs out of the pan when they're done cooking and running cold water into the pan, just enough to cover the bottom, while it's still hot, leaving it to soak. I've found this cuts down on scrubbing later on. The portion stuck to the pan will mostly peel up in one piece after it's soaked for a little while.
You can, of course, make things a whole lot easier by using a teflon pan, but a lot of people are wary of using those, and I understand that. I use them pretty sparingly myself. We bought a nice set of stainless steel cookware from bed bath and beyond, but sometimes I still break out the teflon for the convenience, or for certain items that stick worse.
I'm the same way with numbers.No matter how hard i try i just can't spell my brain just rearranges the letters.

LOL! Either I'm driving like an old lady or some numbskull is behind me tailgating me and I get road rage! 
I actually find the "bunny ears" approach (what you're doing) to be more difficult. I can't grab a hold of both loops at the same time.
Scrambled eggs are one of the few thing that I can cook. Non-stick spray or butter in the pan is a good idea. The only thing you need other than that is eggs. I've never used water or milk in them. If you want them fluffier, you just scramble them a little more before you put them in the pan.I'd suggest a splash of milk in the eggs instead of water. I've never thought to use water, though.

I have a problem with fine motor skills, particularly dealing with relations of things in three-dimensional space. For example I can tie shoes, but it takes a bit of effort. The first shoe might come out ok, but the second one will come loose quickly. I have trouble cutting things like fruit or meat, or peeling. I have trouble wrapping chords and wires.
Yeah, but even with the butter they still find a way to stick to the bottom of the pan. Even if you constantly stir them.
I am classified as a slower learner so,everything is hard for me .
I am awesome at baking potatoes
.HOWEVER!
"Easy things I suck at doing:"
- Directions. I am hopelessly GPS dependent.
- Basic mental math.
- 3D First-Person Shooters.
- Ironing.
- Cursive writing.
- Staying on topic.
Easier to untie. Just pull on the tip of either lace and the knot comes apart. When you actually tie two loops together it's more difficult.
Also, muscle memory. I doubt I could even describe in words how I tie a shoe without reaching down to actually do it; my hands just make the proper motions without conscious thought.
