Ever wonder at those people who say they give more than 100%?

We have all been to those meetings where someone wants more than 100%

How about achieving 103%?

What in life makes 100%?

Want to know the secret?

Here is a little math that might prove helpful.




If:

a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z

is represented as:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26

Then;

Hardwork

8 1 18 4 12 15 18 11 = 98%

Knowledge

11 14 15 23 12 5 4 7 5 = 96%

But;

Attitude

1 20 20 9 20 21 4 5 = 100%

and

Bullshit

2 21 12 12 19 8 9 20 = 103%



So, it stand to reason that hardwork and knowledge will get you close, attitude will get you there, but bullshit will put you over the top.

And look how far this will take you;

Asskissing

1 19 19 11 9 19 19 9 14 7 = 118%









Mods: somehow I can't create a new thread in elsewhere?

~~Elsewhere~~ is now a non-create forum, Darth. Mods can move threads in there, but no new threads can be created by users. As you apparently intended this to be in there, your wish is my command...

Yes, it works with Javascript disabled.

how much hard work and knowledge did it take to create this thread? Did you have the 'right' attitude when you made said thread? Do you think this is bullshit? Why am I asking all these 'stupid' questions? How do they relate to my life? What is worthwhile? Is this the last thing you ever want to do? what is wasted life?

certainly, people put a hundred percent, as in, the 'best' of their ability- but I think you forgot care, or does that fall under the canopy of attitudes. Did I get the context right?

It was mainly meant to be humoristic.

I didn't come up with it, but I can't give a reference to who did it either, it was a pps thing.

alright 'smartypants'. In that case you get 195 percent.

I'm 'stupid' and get only 89 percent, but if I catch a few z's then suddenly I get right up to 104 percent, which requires no effort, and no knowledge.
