I don't know about anyone else but I like to know where the average person stands on certain matters and how I compare to him/her. So I made this thread for people to post whatever facts they know about the average person and discussion on said facts.
Some thing to note, average person stats can vary around the world so if you know where the facts pertain to please include that as well.
To start off, the last time I checked over the course of the average person's lifetime they will consume 6 spiders in their sleep. I'm thinking that's 6 spiders more than I ever want to eat. >.>

I'm sorry and I dont mean to be "that guy" but that "fact" was made up by Lisa Holst in 1993 as an experiment to test the degree of absurdity people will accept on the iternet.
The average person lives for 2,475,576,000 seconds. And in that time will shed 121 pints of tears. On average we will know 10 people who committed suicide, nine who died in road accidents and one in a fire. We drink 74,802 cups of tea in a lifetime (I'm guessing that slightly more for English people)
The average human produces 10,000 gallons of saliva in their lifetime.
no you would have to live to over 200 to produce that much. At a a rate of about 1 pint of saliva a day an average perso would make 3652 gallons in a lifetime.

Hmmm, well I probably would have accepted this as a fact from just about any source really. Especially because I actually got it from more than one source, stupid tests passing out false information.

I hate that fact and I know how you feel. The look on most peoples faces it's almost like you just tore out their heart. The reaction gets worse the older the person is too almost like "Oh shit, I should have known that already."
And the last time I checked, we would produce three tonnes of fecal waste material and eat over a kilogram of mixed bug parts. At least that's what my mind remembered. And the TV.
If you thought ingesting a kilo of mixed bug parts (this seems true) was bad, consider this: an average human will consume approximately half a pound of fecal matter in their lifetime. I'm not sure if this counts the dust you find in carpet, which is in fact dust mite poo.
I could spam this thread with a billion random average person facts...the average person breathes 12-18 times a minute. The average person produces about 400-700mL of flatulence a day, and males produce more. The average time spent in a public restroom is just under 60 seconds for males, just over 90 for females (which explains the excessive queues outside the ladies).
The average male adult in a Western country stands 1.78m tall but the average claimed height is 1.81m. I'm not going to comment on the weight as my figures are probably outdated, given the rapidly rising proportion of the populations in these countries that are now morbidly obese.

I think I already know who some of them will be...

As long as I don't know it when it's happening it's fine by me.
Get these: by the time you reach grade 12, you will have been in school for about 17,000 hours. The average person over fifty will have spent 1 year looking for lost items.
Its just an average tennisman some will be below it some will be above. I beleive the average person ahs 9.9 (-ish) fingers (including thumbs don't be pedantic) cos so many ahve lost fingers etc. it brings the average down and polydactylism doesn't make up for it.
Also I know a average woman speaks 7,000 words a day and a man speaks 2,00 words a day.
I dont believe that is quite true. I myself speak a lot more than a 1000 words per day and the girl would have to be speaking every second if they are to speak so much
