The phenomena that renders a television or movie program unwatchable for more than a few moments before the desire to change the channel or leave the theatre becomes irresistable due to the high levels of stupidity contained therein.
Titled for the Three Stooges, stooge factor can change over time, illustrating how some of our most beloved television programs and movies can become completely unwatchable years later.

It is widely accepted by many that "Colt 45 Blast" was aptly named in reference to having an astronomically high splatter factor.
"Damn homie, I just polished off a few Four Lokos and some bad indian food. I've had to hit the shitter 5 times in the last 3 hours. That's some major splatter factor.
