Bad-Ass Quotient System (measure someone's bad-assness) - Page 2

I love it when people have "who would win in a fight" conversations. You know the kind - "Who would win in a fight between Robocop and the Terminator?" or "Who would win a fight between Peewee Herman and Gilligan?" Etc...

But something that is always laking in those conversations is a proper, quantifiable, measurement of how much of a "bad-ass" someone or something is.

Toward that end - here is Suncrafter's BAQ (Bad Ass Quotient) System:

Fire Ant -------------------------------------------- BAQ = 1
Sewer Rat ----------------------------------------- BAQ = 10
Chiwawa ------------------------------------------- BAQ = 100
Drunk Redneck armed with a pool cue ---------- BAQ = 1,000
Green Beret armed with a machete -------------- BAQ = 10,000
Silverback Gorilla ----------------------------------- BAQ = 100,000
Black Rhino ------------------------------------------ BAQ = 1,000,000
Tyrannosaurus Rex ---------------------------------- BAQ = 10,000,000

It would take about 10 fire ants to evenly fight 1 sewer rat.
It would take about 10 sewer rats to evenly fight 1 Chiwawa.
It would take about 10 Chiwawas to evenly fight 1 drunk redneck armed with a pool cue.
ETC...

So, for example, lets say that 250 Green Berets armed with machetes got into a fight with 2 Black Rhinos... who would win? The 250 Green Berets would have a combined BAQ of 2,500,000 while the 2 Black Rhinos would have a combined BAQ of only 2,000,000 - so the Green Berets would win.

Now we have a scale on which we can use to measure the "Bad-a**ness" of almost anyone or anything!

Here are just a few examples:

Questions for all of you...

1) What do you think your own BAQ is? (Be honest.)
2) Who or what should I add to the above list.
3) Do you think I have too much time on my hands?
