Obviously Mathos only ever learned useful things.

How could it be otherwise?

It is,after all, demeaning to have learned anything useless such as how to look sexy. That is worse than useless. At least uselessness doesn't drop you in the ****.

I had to learn to salute officers. Sheesh!!!

If you get everyone at the party drunk they will all admit that at least once they have scratched their butts and then smelled their fingers....

Useless thing?
Algebra.
Perhaps it doesn't count tho because, even after three attempts in high school, I never actually learned it. Just memorized enough to pass.
