Must be a big mouth too, if the foot fits.

It does the job.

Well, let's see...I am above average because...
1. I have 3 children (not 1.86 which is the average per 2000 census)
2. I have a house that is above average size at 3,400 square feet (average is 2,349 per NPR)
3. I weigh more than the average 6' male (which is supposed to be 190 lbs, yeah right)
4. I own 3 dogs which is above average (1.6 dogs per AVMA.com)
5. I own 6 handguns of various calibers (average 2.7 per gun-owning households, which is roughly about 1 gun per household...this data may be outdated)
6. I make in the top 17% for the annual hosehold income per Wikipedia
7. I have a Master's degree (8.9% of population, also thanks to Wikipedia)
8. I have an IQ that puts me in the top 1/2 of 1%

The things you don't mention reveal a lot.

Absolutely Above Average in All Aspects!

'cept maybe anything involving coordination or common sense.

Aliantha · 08-17-2007, 08:32 PM

I don't think i'm above average in anything. I'm pretty ordinary when it all comes down to it, and that's how I like it.

On work details, I'm not sure if I'm 'above average' when it comes to noticing things that need to be fixed, or just 'above average' about caring. Either way, it's not very endearing. And often a waste of time, on top of it.

I've been working on just letting...it...go, if the details aren't all that important. It's very liberating!

I speak 5 languages, so that's probably above average for the Western world, but that's about it.

I play more musical instruments than the average person (though not all at once :p ).

Aliantha · 08-20-2007, 03:15 AM

Rhianne · 08-20-2007, 04:10 PM

I think that you are much more modest that average.

Aliantha · 08-21-2007, 03:37 AM

Oh I dunno, i'm capable of a good brag when I do something good.

I just don't really have any great talents to talk about.
