Sit cross-legged. I can do it for maybe 10 seconds max, but it's just so uncomfortable. Never was able to even as a kid. I think I'm just not flexible at all.

Fall asleep.
Well, I guess it does technically eventually happen to me sometimes somehow. But not when it should.

Keeping my systems (laptop, smartphone,...) properly maintained and functional (software-wise).
They are always just a barely functioning mess hanging on a last thread. Getting around bugs instead of finding fixes, ignoring non-critical errors, using 50 simpler tools instead of 1 more complicated one because it feels easier at first, holding off-of updates because it absolutely will break something in my stupid setup, doing something in a simpler stupider alternative way instead of doing it properly,...
Basically a software equivalent to old beaten up laptop you got for free that has broken plastic fixed with duct tape, few broken keys, half of the screen's backlight not working and charging connector holding on velcro.

Allow my blood to be taken.
Funnily enough: I am a paramedic with special training in phlebotomy, worked in anaesthesia and did roughly 10.000 blood draws and iV lines in my life.
I am still having a hard time if someone else draws blood from me - I got accustomed to it due to chronic diseases that required a lot of blood being drawn. But: I can without any problem draw my own blood. It's a bit complicated with only one arm,but I can do that.
(And if you want to put a needle anywhere else beside a vein and a intramuscular vaccination and I need full sedation)
That's how the wizards get you.
Being social
Diving. Thousands blown along multiple failed exams. Still get made fun of in my family and work due to that.
