Life Stats

If someone kept - in excruciating detail - perfectly accurate statistics about your life, what statistic would you want to know first?

Among the limitless possibilities, example statistics include: - Hours spent doing "x" activity - lbs. of "x" food consumed - Number of occurrences of "x" - etc.

but off the top of the dome, definitely would be curious about

  • the number of times I came w/in an inch of death from doing stupid sht (extreme sports, debauchery, being a prck, etc) or from possibly being in the wrong place at the wrong time (accidents, natural disasters, fatal robberies, etc).

  • the actual total dollar amount of dimes for every helpless - to be PC - broad ive met (IQ/EQ based) to see if i really would have enough change to buy dinner for at least one of the next ones i do meet.

  • total amount of people that i have genuinely p*ssed off, broken out by directly and indirectly (relayed story, etc). ha ha. that would be awesome.

  • how many hours/days/months? ive spent procrastinating before school and work deadlines.

 

-Lifetime # of times I've hit the "get mail" or "send/receive" button (depending on which email software i've used over the years). Must be in the thousands.

-List of things I've eaten without knowing it (spiders in my sleep, spit in my hamburgers, etc.)

-brain cells killed/IQ points lost via alcohol related: Lifetime BAC statistics for every time I drank 2+ drinks, including median, mean, top 10, etc.

-All activities/events for which I could claim "If I had a nickel for every time X happened, I would have $10,000"

-Total minutes spent on WSO
