Fuck Factor

A magical number that when added to, subtracted from, or mutiplied or divided by any amount always increases the amount that a person is required to pay for a product or service.

I called the water company today to figure out why my bill had gone up. The rep told me to take my normal usage and multiply it by the fuck factor to determine my new rate.

eQ factor

The ratio of the cost of a gallon of gasoline to the cost of an equivalent amount of electrical energy, based on a gallon of gasoline having 115,000 BTUs which is equivalent to 33.7 kilowatt-hours. The eQ factor is used to determine how many miles one gets in an electric vehicle for the same dollars spent on a gallon of gasoline. This is different than MPGe which does not account for price differences between gasoline and electricity. To figure the eQ factor, first calculate the the cost of an equivalent amount of electrical energy in your locale by multiplying 33.7 KwH by the cost per kilowatt-hour of electricity (including delivery charges, if any). Call that the "Cost of a Gallon of Electricity". Take the cost of a gallon of gasoline in your locale, and divide it by the "Cost of a Gallon of Electricity" to get the eQ factor. The eQ factor changes depending on the prices of gasoline and electricity in a particular location on any given day.

To figure out how economical that electric car really is for you, multiply the MPGe rating from the EPA by the eQ factor to see how many miles you'll get for the same dollars you spend on a gallon of gasoline.

Vomit Factor

The feeling you get when you know you are pushing the limits of sanity and suddenly wonder why.

The vomit factor was high as I stood on the wing of the airplane, about to jump into thin air.

Cockroach Factor

(n.) A term that describes the survivability of a person in any sort of accident.
It refers to the apparent knack that usually undesirable people of questionable social worth (alcoholics, drug addicts, gangsters, so on) have for surviving insane injuries or crashes. Conversely, it also describes the apparent fragility of those who do contribute remarkably to our society (organ donors, doctors, charitable people, so on).

A drunk driver can ram his car into a brick wall at 100 miles per hour and completely smash his car to smithereens with only minor injuries, cuz' of his high cockroach factor.

At the same time, if a doctor were to slip and fall in his/her bathroom, he/she may be in grave danger, because of his/her low cockroach factor.
