Coward's Ratio

When a status (especially on Twitter) has significantly more likes than it does retweets/reposts/shares. Usually happens when people like or agree with a statement, but are afraid to share on their own profile for fear of being mocked or embarrassed. Usually involves taboo sexual remarks or embarrassing bodily functions.
If someone writes about how all of us have had a crush on a hot cousin at one point or another, and 9.4k people have liked it but only 37 people have retweeted it, that's the Coward's Ratio.

imminent poop to poot ratio

A formal ratio calculated that measures gaseous emissions at varying phases of needing to take a shit, postulating that the more imminent the turd, the higher the volume and rate of concurrent farting.
My father explained that during the process of the massive turd being passed, his lab assistant calculated the “imminent poop to poot ratio” and concluded that the ratio obtained had in fact accurately predicted both the proximity of the exiting turd to the rectum as well as estimating its unorthodox, gargantuan size, by measuring the flatus emitted.

rationalization hamster

The rationalization hamster is a legendary creature dwelling deep in the minds of the self-delusional, and is particularly common among young liberal women. From birth, the rationalization hamster enters a symbiotic relation with its host, whereby whenever the host feels a craving to do something completely insane and malicious that will have horrible consequences for everyone in the long run, the rationalization hamster will jump on its wheel and run really, really fast, getting the magical hamster wheel to spin out a long sheet of paper full of neat rationalizations for the ultimately devastating action.

Rationalization hamsters are thought to be a key component in producing liberal scholarly works, particularly those of feminism. Young, liberated women often rely on it to explain their attraction to the asshole who is going to pump and dump them, as well as their contempt for the nice guy who, unaware of the hamster within, strives fruitlessly to gain their true love. Older, liberated women also rely on it for dumping their husbands and using the resulting child support money on jewellery, cars and/or crack.
The adulterer: Well, it's okay to lie about cheating on him and say it's his baby, as long as his feelings aren't hurt!

Some dude: Whoa, you think it's okay to lie, cheat and commit paternity fraud on your man? Your rationalization hamster must be working overtime!

The adulterer: But it's not my fault I slept around, it kinda just happened! And those guys probably raped me because I don't really like them right now anymore...

Some dude: Hot dang, that's one tough hamster!
