The more you and a friend hate on each other is directly proportional to how close the two individuals are
Paul and I take potshots at each other on the daily but there isn’t anything that we wouldn’t do for each other. That places our relationship super high on the bro-hater index

Get the The Bro-Hater Index mug.A proposed alternative metric to indices like the "Economic Freedom Index" (which equates freedom with deregulation). This index would measure the substantive freedom of the working class based on factors like: job security, union density, access to healthcare and housing, free time (leisure vs. work hours), workplace democracy, and power over community decisions. It redefines freedom from "freedom from the state" to "freedom from exploitation and insecurity."
Example: According to the Proletariat Freedom Index, a Scandinavian country with strong unions, a generous social safety net, and codetermination laws would rank highly, while a US state with "right-to-work" laws, no paid leave, and rampant gig economy precarity would rank near the bottom, despite scoring high on a traditional "economic freedom" index.

Get the Ruining the Integrity mug.Hot Waitress Economic Index (HWEI) is an unofficial and controversial economic indicator suggesting that when the economy tanks, suddenly all the servers at restaurants become ridiculously attractive because hot people who normally work better-paying jobs are forced to wait tables. The hotter your server, the more fucked the economy probably is.
The HWEI is one of the many weird indicators that people have used to make sense of the economy. Advertisements by the United States Marine Corps, sales of men's underwear, and even lipstick sales are just a few of them.
You can expect to see tougher marine recruitment ads on TV in a difficult economy because they meet recruitment goals quickly in down economies. They don't have to worry about scaring people away. Men's underwear sales will dip (that pair might last a little longer) and lipstick sales will go up because it's a relatively inexpensive personal luxury.

Kevin: Damn, my waitress last night was hot, why is she working at The Cheesecake Factory?? According to the Hot Waitress Economic Index, we're definitely heading for a recession.
