Being average is OK.. Just a friendly reminder
None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe that they are free.

    Just average in general.. Smarts, looks, gerth, whatever.. It's all ok.. It's not like you are below average

    I'm cool with the ultimately-inconsequential stuff being average. There are certain areas where I will not tolerate it though! Mostly on the mind/thinking/integrity fronts. That's for me, though - I think most people are drawn to some non-average aspect that stands out or reaches that person.

    No one's really average (or normal) anyway. Thank goodness.

    Actually, most people are average.. That's what the word means

    I'm not average.

    It's simple really, take the middle third of any measurable attribute within a specified group of people.. That's how you say what is average

    What about things that aren't measurable?

    I'm not average, I'm mean, that's my mode.

    You can't have an average of something that can't be measured.. And furthermore, that's not what this thread is about

    and yet there are so many unmeasurable attributes that make people more than average... and its those that we should be taking measure of.

    Fair enough but, I didn't start a "you can't form an average from the unmeasurable attributes of people" thread. This is an average thread. Based on averagable averages.,

    What I like about this thread is that the average person can't post here without sounding average.
  • CAVSTARR313CAVSTARR313 Posts: 8,756
    Well, that was an unintended consequence.. Still, it's just an average unintended consequence

    It appears you are an average speller.
    It's girth FYI.

    Ya, my above average wife just informed me.. And averagable isn't a word., but, it's ok.. I'm comfortable in my own skin

    Oddly, wouldn't that make those average kids above average? I don't know if I should smoke more or less after that realization

    I like this thread. But my tastes have been described as decidedly less than average.

    Btw, I met OP and his above average bride in philly 2013 and the experience was average. I blame that on myself as my wife was pregnant and I was in a very average mode.

    Rob>average.

    I met them in Toronto on an above average night, way above average.

    Yeah, I blame myself. They both seemed above average but I'm with the OP and give the woman more credit. My wife having worked for a German company, I also have a soft spot for finding German women to be above average. My wife, by association, is well above average.
