First-known documented scale by an Eastern Bloc author (Nichita Smochină of Moldavia) created for men and women courting one another to rate flirting and kissing on a scale of 1 to 9 (Communist belief did not allow for a 10). The original scale was published in 1930 by Smochină's in the anthology, Cunoștințe Utile ("Useful Knowledge").
As the story goes, Smochină was in Paris at the time, and met a young woman who simply could not flirt or kiss. When he tried to explain to his friends how poorly this woman communicated and later smooched, there was simply no language for explaining this problem. That night, Smochină created the famous Smochină Smooch Scale in one draft. Many say he was divinely inspired.
The rating for #1 took off and gained quite a bit of fame internationally. In its original form, it was "Ăsta se sărută ca o sardină rece de la Marea Neagră" (This one kisses like a cold sardine from the Black Sea.) By the time is was used in speakeasies in Chicago, it had been notably shortened to "Ca un peşte rece" (Like a cold fish).

Get the Smochină Smooch Scalemug. The hardest scale in the world. On this scale if you get a 5 that is a 10 on any regular scale. Anytime you are rated on the Trent Scale you know it will be a harsh rating.

Get the Trent Scalemug. The Dankosity Scale is a scale used to measure how dank memes are. Memes can range from but are not limited to "godawful", "ass", "nice", "fire", "dank" and "super dank". This is a way to measure your favourite memes from your childhood and know where they land. There is also a high likelihood of almost all brainrot being in godawful.

Get the Dankosity Scalemug. A spectrum used to rate women incrementally using detriments rather than an integer inside a domain. A 1 on the CAT scale means the girl has something in her life or demeanor that warrants a negative perception equal to that of owning 1 cat (as owning a cat is obviously an easily measurable detriment to somebody's desirability). For instance, a girl being medically obese would be about 4 cats. Nobody would want to date a girl with 4 cats.
"EW Emily can't squat 225?! That's easily a 3 on the CAT scale"
"She asked me my zodiac sign right away. 2 cats right off the bat!"
"She asked me my zodiac sign right away. 2 cats right off the bat!"
