The Nickter Scale
« on: January 28, 2008, 11:39:01 AM »
I've been thinking about this for a while. Seeing as Nick has a constant flow of calamities it seems a good idea to be able to categorise them so we know whether or not to head for the hills.

So far I have:

1. Minor event only affecting Nick such as the cat peeing on his mobile
2. Basic experimentation causing a minor calamity such as microwaving a dishcloth
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10. Cascade Cataclysnic Event - abandon all hope all ye who enter here.  scared:



There are just too many different examples to choose from so any suggestions?  whistle:

7 has to be anything involving Mrs Nick NOT getting what she feels to be her right and due from objects, animate or inanimate.
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.

I helped Mrs Nick empty her car boot earlier. For unfathomable reasons it contained largely inflated balloons in bin liners.

Extra airbags I suspect. After all Mrs Nick must be a Nick-o-ray veteran after all these years  whistle:
