    Iโ€™d be the best at powershell. Unfortunately I wouldnโ€™t live very long.

    I know how to make rope, among other things, as an eagle scout, and I have some experience with atatl so, probably dying of fever at 14.

    Excel, it wouldn't be useful but I'd still be great at it.

    Great! I got a random Excel question. Sometimes when I pull reports at work the format for the price changes. Instead of showing the $ and the correct amount of spaces after the cent sign like .00, it has no $ and many digits after the cent sign like .000000000000000.

    Now when I try to change the cell format back to currency, accounting, text, or anything it keeps the same format and amount of digital after the cent sign. The work around I found is to open up a different Excel doc type it in the correct format and then copy and paste over the incorrect formatted cell.

    Do you can a better answer or did I explain horribly and your as confused as me when I try to fix Excel?

    I'd probably be something of a builder/ "engineer."

    I'm not actually an engineer, but I have a knack for utilizing what I have around me or simple enough objects to serve other goals. I suppose I'm what people used to call a Macgyver or "mechanically inclined."

    With or without my current knowledge?

    Because I'm pretty sure I could smelt Iron with what I know, and a year or two of experimentation. So the answer would be "ending the stone age".

    Without? I dunno, maybe building traps and snares.

    I would invent God so others would do all the hunting and gathering for me while I partied in the cave basement drawing on the walls.

    Iโ€™m pretty good at thinking outside the box and innovating, so Iโ€™d probably just die.

    I'm a natural at shooting a traditional bow.
    I know every edible plant in my area, and some that get you high.
    I can find north without a compass, day and night.
    I can make a fire from things I can gather in the woods.
    I know how to safely fell a tree, split logs and build a shelter with hand tools.
    I know how to act around most predators and have experience handling a spear.

    I think I'd do reasonably well.
    Sometimes I wish I was born in the stone age. My ADHD is completely gone whenever I'm in the wild.

    Either making elaborate traps and contraptions out of sticks and stones.

    Or brain surgery.

    I wouldnโ€™t survive long with my poor eyesight. Maybe Iโ€™d create tools or something. Love tinkering.

    technical art and programming for video games

  • Probably tool making.

    It would take time to get back into it, but I was turning out decent knives, spear points, and arrowheads for a while there. Nothing that would blow anyone's mind as art, but pretty enough and usable.

    One of those things I did just because I wanted to see if I could, and it turned out to be really relaxing and enjoyable. Arthritis took the enjoyable and relaxing part away, so I stopped, but on a survival level, I could get the job done well enough to make up for being a bottom tier hunter.
