Obviously, Constitution was going to be his dump, and the DM asked him whether it would be fine to make it extremely low, since he seemed to be such a 'talented individual.' The guy agreed to make it four, and the DM replied 'Well then, seeing as you had such a low Constitution, you died shortly of an unspecified illness after being born. Do you want to roll another character now?"
I didn't hear what happened after that, but he either grudgingly rolled or rage-quitted.
