I was worried when I saw 153 unread posts on this thread and the maths conversation still seemed to be going strong, but I see we’ve progressed on from there quite nicely.

I used Trig once, maybe a year out of high school, and I was so jazzed to be able to use it to solve an actual real-world scenario (friend wanted to build a triangular table).
I do blame my mother for doing year round school for us to test the theory of you lose 60% of what you learned over the summer as by the time I entered high school I knew some trig and how to use a slide rule. But I found how they taught math was dreadfully so boring and dry. But her plan of teaching year round did sadly also have a side effect she lamented that the need to learn did not go away for us.
In short I don't disagree with people saying they hate math I just disagree with how it's taught
And I confused myself buying $4 of stuff yesterday with a $20 as I thought I could give them a dollar to get back 17 but I knew it was wrong then I looked mentally at other ways I could do this with the change I had and the 20 and dollar
A dark road of math quickly went though my head as the clerk took the bill and gave me my change
I wonder what stats I have pumped and what are my dump stats
Probably Wisdom is my dump stat actually
I just tried a DnD stats quiz and apparently I am fairly average at everything. http://www.kevinhaw.com/add_quiz.php
Dexterity and Charisma are slightly lower (10).
Also Jugs you are always pumping iron you must be more than strength 13
Some of the questions were like "have you ever pulled a train or recieved the adulation of your countrymen for feats of daring physical do?" Or like, "have you ever popped a football with a single karate chop?"

I've instantly run into a problem
I have no idea how much I can bench press.
Capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed if Labor had not first existed. Labor is superior to capital, and deserves much the higher consideration. - Lincoln

People who need a wheelchair? Able bodied people who play wheelchair sports?
rambling
Is there a better term than "able bodied"? Uh, I was gonna ramble with a list of names but I can't think of any. Normal would be one I guess. But that's the same issue as able bodied.

No who does those things?
What if I only received adulation from foreigners, does that not count?

That was the last time I ever had to use Trig.
THERE IS NO DEBATE THERE IS ONLY THE OXFORD COMMA OR FATUOUS IGNORANCE
CHOOSE YOUR SIDE
my side is sometimes it's good with it, sometimes it's good without it
come
at
me
Don’t move for like 16 hours.
done and done
I know this all to well it's harrowing to say the least
I'd pump everything into Intelligence, because 99% of the time INT builds are the most broken of them all
Probably Wisdom is my dump stat actually
Good day sir.

Dexterity and Charisma are slightly lower (10).
Either I have a very high opinion of myself or it's balls
STR:9
INT:15
WIS:15
DEX:10
CON:10
CHR:8
Intelligence: 11
Wisdom: 15
Dexterity: 12
Constitution: 13
Charisma: 12
So I'm a moderately functional, neutral good stable hand with lots of folksy wisdom I guess.
That sounds about right.
Int: 13
Wis: 14
Dex: 13
Con: 12
Cha:18

HA! HA!
WHOSE THE ARBITER OF SMARTINESS NOW, JERKTEST?
edit:
looks at the next few questions
oh...
Some of the questions were like "have you ever pulled a train or recieved the adulation of your countrymen for feats of daring physical do?" Or like, "have you ever popped a football with a single karate chop?"
No who does those things?
I have no idea how much I can bench press.
INT:11
WIS:14
DEX:8
CON:10
CHR:7
BUT if you take into account the 5th Edition stat modifiers for goblins, as is appropriate:
STR: 9
INT: 11
WIS: 13
DEX: 10
CON: 10
CHA: 6
Look-out, first level adventurers.
Int 12
Wis 15
Dex 12
Con 5
Charisma 11
Not too bad
I probably have like 1 hit point even if I were a martial class.
are puns a skill or part of chr/int?
I think they're an all encompassing negative modifier.
I don't understand the wheelchair question
Who's sitting in the wheelchair
rambling
INT: 15
WIS: 14
DEX: 10
CON: 6
CHR: 7
I've got shit for a constitution and charisma, but that just means I'm a cheap and easy date, I guess.
What if I only received adulation from foreigners, does that not count?
INT: 15
WIS: 15
DEX: 12
CON: 9
CHA: 12
Wouldn't mind rolling a character like this, quite frankly.
Annoyed by my low Con, though.
