The scale of the intensity of the need to expel a "running-induced crap." 1 would be slight abdominal pain; 10 would be an explosion capable of setting the sky on fire.
"I was so humiliated when I hit a 10 on the Ricter scale at the last mile of my long run. At my running buddies bought me beers afterward to make their making fun of me bearable."

Much like the Richter Scale measures the strength of an earthquake, the Hitchcock Scale measures the strength of a sneeze. The scale goes from 1 to 10 where 10 is the highest. A sneeze measuring 1 is basically that of a very polite grandmother, barely a "psst." Whereas a 10 is a sneeze that results in death.
Sandy: "God bless you!"
Jon: "Thanks... that was at least an 8 on the Hitchcock Scale. I sharted and I'm still seeing spots."

A scale party is a social gathering among friends or acquaintances, typically held after a bulk purchase of items such as food, spices, or other goods that are sold at a discount in large quantities. During a scale party, the purchased items are weighed out using a scale and then divided into smaller portions among the attendees, allowing everyone to take home a fair share of the goods. Participants may also use the occasion to sample the items and share recipes or tips. The scale party is a fun and practical way to save money by purchasing in bulk while also fostering a sense of community among friends.
Last weekend, me and my buddies got together for a scale party to divvy up some spices we bought in bulk, and it was awesome! We weighed everything out, tried some new flavors, and had a great time hanging out and catching up.
