So you are offered the little red pill. Take it, and you can change all of your existing real-life skills, qualifications, strengths, weaknesses and other attributes. Of course, you can only change skills you actually have, but enhance them at the expense of others. I'd happily trade some of my professional qualifications for, say, a foreign language. How about you? Do a real-life re-spec...

- Weird rib cage shape

+ An actual jawline, you know, with a real chin?

 

- Video Game skill/Geek knowledge

+ Some initiative/Perseverance

 

Seriously, I have no chin. It's insanely annoying.

"Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"

A mate and I once joked about having our own personal pan flute player following us everywhere we went, saying nothing but playing a wise tune whenever we said anything.

 

 

Anyway,

 

- Rubik's Cube solving skills (I can solve it in under 3 minutes, which is realy of no use whatsoever other than impressing nerds)

+ drumming skills (currently at about 0)

This is very tricky because Im mediocre at a lot of things, but I wouldnt want to suck at some things to do others better. Would it be worth it to zero mediocre music skills to up mediocre drawing skills? And would it be worth it to gain expertise in mathematics, if I had to forget everything I know about history?

DISCLAIMER: Do not take what I write seriously unless it is clearly and in no uncertain terms, declared by me to be meant in a serious and non-humoristic manner. If there is no clear indication, asume the post is written in jest. This notification is meant very seriously and its purpouse is to avoid misunderstandings and the consequences thereof. Furthermore; I can not be held accountable for anything I write on these forums since the idea of taking serious responsability for my unserious actions, is an oxymoron in itself.

 

Important: as the following sentence contains many naughty words I warn you not to read it under any circumstances; botty, knickers, wee, erogenous zone, psychiatrist, clitoris, stockings, bosom, poetry reading, dentist, fellatio and the department of agriculture.

One might acidly observe that on this forum having no knowledge of history appears to be positively liberating to the point of carnival.
