Pasta Tolerance Treshold 

Indicates for how many successive days you can live on pasta (plain or with something) without turning grumpy. Especially important when you are a poor student. If you are beyond your pasta tolerance treshold (PTT) you might want to switch to rice, polenta, potatoes etc. for a few days until you reach, for example, your rice tolerance treshold (RTT).

"Ey dude, pasta for dinner tonight?"
"No man, I'm really beyond my Pasta Tolerance Treshold. I'm going for rice instead."
"Alright, I see what you mean. Your PTT is not to be messed with!"

zero tolerance 

A policy that was put into use by United States schools and other establishments soon after the Columbine tragedy.
In practice, zero tolerance policies allow for no weapons or dangerous objects in school.
However, the noun "weapon" can mean "an object that can be used to cause harm"; the phrase "dangerous objects" is a plural of the same meaning; therefore, almost any object can be considered a weapon.
Because of this, overzealous officials often unleash horrificaly exaggerated sentences for the silliest of things.

A 7-year-old boy was suspended for pretending to shoot his classmates.

maximum viewing tolerance 

A hypothetical (uncertain) threshold (the point that must be exceeded to begin producing a given effect or result or to elicit a response) at which white trash will feel offended by the moronic TV programming, directing their attention to other aspects of their equally miserable lives.

Hey Pete... why your father stays for hours and hours watching crappy TV?
He is becoming an experiment that will disprove maximum viewing tolerance theory.

love tolerance 

The amount of CRAP you put up with when you are in a relationship with someone. This includes one's patience to give the other person their way, forgiving them or looking past their wrongs and mistakes, and repeatedly having to give and not receiving the same amount in return.

This can be both a good or a bad trait to have. Patience is a virtue, but too much giving and not enough receiving could be interpreted as a doormat.

Marc Anthony has high love tolerance because he is always tested with his patience with JLo's diva antics.

My friend has higher love tolerance than what I thought she would based on the person she carries herself to be. The amount of *shite she puts up with in her love life, would never be carried the same in other relationships in her life.
