The following Dodgers have been smited by the JDK for their crimes against Jam:
All the girls! for picking on the JDK and damaging his already delicate self esteem!
The Basserd Who Nicked Copper's Stuff For the offense of nicking Copper's stuff. You are a tw*t, whoever you are and we all hope you get run over by a tram in Nottingham. Or Liverpool. Or whereever else they have trams!
Copper For the crime of playing with her Wii instead of her Jammie pals!
So, lads. Here’s the thing. Given the wide ranging variation in tastes, I’m of the opinion that we need a formal process by which we can rate the attractiveness of the girls, so that we can avoid any claims of discrimination. If we have an official scale, the chicks don’t have to feel bad if we don’t fancy ‘em cos it’s just the numbers, innit!
Each feature, or variable of said girl could be given a rating on a scale of, say 1 to 10. For example (and this is only an example and doesn’t necessarily reflect the personal taste of the management):
Hair colour: Blondes 10, Redheads 7, Brunettes 5, Pink hair 1 cos it’s grim. 10 bonus points if the collars and cuffs match.
Handbags: 2 points deducted from the total of 10 for each handbag owned by the subject. This can go into minus points.
Shoes: 2 points deducted from the total of 10 for every pair of shoes over and above a nominal volume of 3. Again… minus points are allowed (and are inevitable).
So there we are. We just have to decide upon a suitable number of variables – I think 10 is good, giving us a maximum figure of 100 – and how those variables should be measured.
I think that this is terribly important work we’re doing here and can be applied to many events that could otherwise cause embarrassment and wasted time. For example, a prospective employer can place a stipulation that only girls who score 70 or over should apply for a job thereby saving him the trouble of interviewing girls that he obviously isn’t going to employ and saving our less attractive womenfolk from wasting their time applying in the first place.
Girls – I realise that there is the remote possibility that my misogynistic attitude has an outside chance of causing offence and to that I can only say that I forgive you.
One last thing… It’s only a bit of fun. I’m not really a sexist pig… I’m just trying to get a rise out of ya!
Ahhh. But the tricky bit is coming to a consensus on what scores what. For example, you might go for blondes while I like brunette totty. How do you decide which is better (other than that I'm king and what I say goes)?
I'm a sucker for redheads-- but don't tell my wife, she's a blonde.
Actually, she already knows this about me, and uses it to needle be mercilessly anytime we happen to see a redhead on the street. Or TV, or a magazine, or a wanted poster at the post office ...
The reason such a system is so impossible is that it is all so incredibly subjective. My personal opinion is that everyone is attractive to someone, somewhere. Perhaps in a completely different culture than where the poor bloke (what's the female form of bloke? blokette?) landed, but still.
When we did this in work, it actually worked really well, cos the best looking girl in the place came about 4th cos she had the personality of a compete haddock.
Normally guys would take 1 look at her and give her the thumbs up.
Yeah... but you can't just rate 'personality'. You have factor in the different variables... are they clever or dumb, do they spend all their time in the shops looking at the shiny, shiny things, do they read 'womens' magazines, how many soaps do they watch a week? All the important stuff.
*Thinkin* I should start one of these for us girls although I think one of the major factors in our ratings would be 1. Ability to do the ironing...sorry that should be ability to turn the iron on etc
