It's very unlikely that I or the OP will ever,
butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, build a wall, set a bone, or pitch manure.
And recognizing that these aren't personally valuable skills is a worthwhile skill.
- ghaff 6y agoI'd argue that at least knowing the basics of splinting is a good skill to have. (I keep up to date on wilderness first aid.) And many people know and sometimes use the basics of sailing/seamanship--it's not something exotic. I wouldn't really say I can "design a building" but I know some basics of construction which I think is pretty common.
