I think they meant being able to hold a conversation. Not the shoe.
1) Score a baseball game - Coached Little League so I hope so.
2) Build a fire - Was a boy scout and a fledgling pyromaniac so check.
3) Tie a tie - Several ways. including the ways that require a safe word
4) Hold your own in any sport - other than the aforementioned round ball
5) Car maintenance - my father was a mechanic, could rebuild an engine before I lost my virginity (unfortunately)
6) Wingman - Bros before hoes
7) Converse - Once you learn to fake sincerity it's all downhill
8) Basic first aid - I know how to use my gunshot wound kit, Does that count?
9) Fix things - there is not anything I can't fix, I have every tool you can imagine and know how to properly use them even though I can never find what I need when I need it. But if it's on a house or a car I've got it covered.
10) Cook - Once you learn to properly cook a steak and make a sauce from scratch the rest is easy.
