5 by 5

Respective rating used to report ballpark signal strength and clarity of a transmission. So a 5 by 1 means a strong signal is present, but what is saying cannot be understood. 1 by 5 means you can understand them, but a signal is barely coming in. 5 by 5 is ideal for both counts.

Can also be used nowadays to mean one is doing well.
Ex. A) – command to alpha2IC, do you read?
-command this is alpha2IC, I got you 5 by 5.

b) How’s it going?
I’m 5 by 5.

5 by 5

This is an old aeronautical radio term. Radio signal strength and clarity were measured on a scale of 1 to 5. Today the term "Loud and Clear" is preferred to "5 by 5".

In slang use "5 by 5" means things are well, good, or as expected.

5 in 5

A shortened version of the drinking term "5 shots in 5 minutes". Can also be converted to 6 in 6, 7 in 7, or if you're trying to die, 10 in 10.

-5 to 5 Scale

The -5 to 5 is a more logical rating scale than 1-10 having negative convey repulsion and positive convey attraction. It also has 11 choices instead of 10 and is useful in getting an honest rating without the baggage of the 1-10 scale.

-5 Extremely Repulsed, would not touch with a 10 foot pole
-4 Very ugly, but you are able to resist the urge to throw up in your mouth
-3 On the very ugly side no doubt but not the ugliest you've ever seen
-2 Definitely not good looking, maybe fat
-1 Not naturally blessed and maybe has a crooked nose or some defect
0 Neutral; No Opinion
1 Not very attractive, but not completely useless to look at
2 Decent looking but someone you are not very interested in
3 Very Attracted, you definitely think this person is attractive
4 Super attractive, but not quite the perfect person for you
5 Extremely Attracted, your type in every way

5’10.5”

Researchers suggest the Perfect Male Height is between 6’0” - 6’3”, and women suggest the Ideal Male Height is 5’11”, with male heights as low as 5’8” - 5’5” being Too Short.

However, this data doesn’t account for men who are 5’10.5”, as they are below the Perfect and Ideal male heights, and yet are greatly above heights that are considered as Too Short.

When factoring this new data into the Male Height Algorithm, the results become clear.

Men who are 5’10.5” have reached what’s known as the True Ideal Male Height.

The True Ideal Male Height is in many ways better than the Perfect and Ideal male heights, because research has proven that 5’10.5” men wield significantly longer and thicker schlongs, according to studies.
