"Olson" is the name from one of the several hot-tempered family lines from North America. With ancestory ranging from scandanavia to polish, the early original angry families such as the "Olson"s migrated to North America like so many other new-world pioneers. North America's weather was and still is a tough bitch to deal with, which is what make the angry families a unique part of North American heritage.

You'll know you are an Olson WHEN..
-Either first, middle, or last name is Olson.
-You live on a farm in Canada.
-You seem to be extremely angry and exciteable.
-Every male in your family is also angry and exciteable.

Above rednecks, yet below high-class, knowing someone from such a lineage is an honor. Although some Olsons have learned to control their explosive reactions, the fact remains that you can still provoke one into an incredible frenzy of old-fashioned swearing, insulting, and fighting.

Just remember that not ALL Olsons are like this, and that there would be evidence needed to prove an "Olson" (see above).
"That angry Olson is yelling at the cows again."

Olson Ratio 

The Olson Ratio is a mathematical approach at valuing a woman's hotness. In its most basic form, the ratio is calculated by taking how hot the woman thinks she is by how hot she actually is. (How hot she think she is / how hot she really is) Therefore, any value above 1 means that the girl overvalues her hotness and therefore undesirable. Anything below 1, show that there is value in the woman.
Ashley thinks she is a 9 when she really is a 6. Her Olson Ratio is 1.5
