the scarlet letter

A famous book written by Nathaniel Hawthorne that deals with Puritan beliefs. The main character is a woman named Hester who has a baby, is accused of adultry, and is forced to wear a red letter, "A" on her clothes, so everyone in the town knows she's a skank. Highschoolers are forced to read this book. Only God knows why. At first, the book seams alright. The plot seams interesting enough, because it deals with sex and suspence, but when you start reading it you have to keep your eyes open with clothes pins to avoid falling asleep. Also known as, the most overrated and dissapointing book of all time.
I thought that reading The Scarlet Letter would be interesting, but once I actually started reading the book it made me want to gauge my eyes out with a spork and smear my eyeball blood all over Nathaniel Hawthorne. What the hell was my english teacher smoking when he read this book and thought it was a masterpiece?

24 scale

a scale used to determine how hot a member of the opposite sex is (or the same sex if you swing that way). it goes as follows - you have to say how much of a 24 (of beer, dumbass) you would have to drink to fuck someone, or they would have to drink to fuck you. the scale is all about comparing yourself to the person. 0 would be neutral, a + number would be for a person you are hotter than, and a - number would be for someone hotter than you. so rosie odonnell would be a 22 and someone like elisha cuthbert would be a -22. and if you are really extreme you would say someone takes a keg if they are really that bad.
damn that girl is fine, i'd say she is about a -12/
