Where Do You Fall On The Boru Scale?
#1
Where Do You Fall On The Boru Scale?
(The following is inspired by and dedicated to Professor Richard Dawkins, whose 'belief scale' has given people the guidance they need to know what they already know.)

Please choose the number that best describes how you feel.  Have this number printed on a t-shirt and wear it to important social functions, such as orgies and beheadings.

17.  Deep down, you suspect that no one really likes grapefruit.

1 000 206.  Your favourite colour is 'clear' and you adore the smell of oxygen.

6.022140857 × 10^23.  You have a burning desire to launch a campaign to convince people that moles deserve their civil rights.

3.14159.  Five should be enough for anyone.

91.  You try to suppress the urge to kick anyone who sings 'Oranges and Lemons' and you aren't sure how long you can hold out.

10.  It isn't terminal.  Probably.

666.  You know.  Don't gimme that, you DO know.

3 Because if it's enough for BS Johnson, it's bloody well good enough for me.

Eleventy-two.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.

Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped.

Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses.

Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.

Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."
