List of distributions that make sense to me:

uniform
bernoulli
binomial
geometric
beta
poisson
exponential
gamma (at least when alpha is a positive integer a.k.a. Erlang distribution)

List of distributions that i don't understand:

pareto
normal
log normal
chi-squared
student's t

also, hi

	Ask for time until next event	Ask for time until nth event	Ask for number of events in fixed interval
Discrete version	Geometric distribution	Negative binomial distribution?	Binomial distribution
Continuous version	Exponential distribution	Gamma distribution	Poisson distribution

$A \to B$ means I am aware of a derivation of B using A.
