English, how to discuss and argue with people (constructively) and realizing that a lot of people are not nearly as smart as they think they are.
Something I noticed on the internet is people almost never letting go of their PoV no matter how good counter arguments you give, while in real life it's much less present. Intimidation because the encounter is RL I guess. Even the most blatant examples like why mining field POBs are bad for gameplay - I can give logical reasoning and explanations all day, but if someone decided they think they're nice and healthy they won't change their (stubborn) opinion.
