Wait, is this a trick question? The median is always the way to go, no matter what. It's like the Switzerland of statistical measures - neutral and reliable.

Exponential distribution, huh? Sounds like a party! The median's the life of the party, keeping things balanced and grounded.

Normality, schormality! The median is my jam, no matter what shape the data is in. Can't go wrong with a good, solid middle value.

Hah! The median is definitely the way to go when dealing with those pesky outliers. It's like a ninja, sneaking past the crazies and finding the true center.
