Think about everything you do, and everywhere you go. Now imagine if you could access all that data - how many miles you've traveled, how many times you've skirted death, or how many people think about you in the tub. Would you want to know your personal life statistics?

How common is your name, and was it chosen because another was too common?

Giphy

When I was naming my kids, a number of the names we were considering were thrown out because either me or my wife knew someone by that name and our experience with them made using their name awkward. Like they were the smelly kid, they were bullies, had a crush on them ect.

I always wanted to know how many people considered my name as a potential child's name, but eliminated it because of me.

Gypsiee

This is an overwhelming thought.

Giphy

How many times I've passed by someone who, if I got to know them, would've been a perfect match for me.

Those other sperm wouldn't be you...

Giphy

I'd want to see my stats compared to all the other sperm I beat to the egg. Like a table comparing our quality of life stats, how long we all would have lived, where we would have settled, how well we would have done. How different our lives were.

Whether or not we've ever worked there, we've all heard horror stories and seen internet memes about "people at Walmart" and the weird things that often happen within the oversized chain convenience store.

TikToker Kae, or @lolxdlolxdlolxd23455 on the platform, worked at Walmart for more than six months and ultimately was fired because he'd accidentally logged his PTO time incorrectly and also requested multiple days off,—but he'd intended to quit anyway given his unpleasant time working there.
