I'm an expertI spent four years of my life acquiring a PhD. This makes me an expert in the use of transparency in computer interfaces. It's not a hugely useful or interesting expertise, but it's all mine. I'm pretty hot at sitting on the sofa, too.
What are you lot experts in?

Pulling the Wool Over Peoples EyesI'm an expert.
I somehow managed to convince a former employer that I should be hired as 2nd level support, in spite of about 3.5 minutes experience it IT. They put me through SQL admin courses, gave me Domain Admin privileges, and more. Fools.
People who've followed Aussie Rules footy all their lives reckon I'm a bit of an expert, despite only really having followed it for a bit over 3 years, and not being able to put the pill between the big sticks from 10 metres in front (I do go to pretty much every Collingwood game played in Melbourne, though).
I could go on, and I will...
I have inadvertantly convinced friends that I am a good listener in times of trouble. I am a fucking awful listener, and if there's a tele in the background showing the footy, I'm shown up as the fake I am.
There's more, but there's footy on tele, and I need to fix my laptop. With a hammer.
