Ridiculosity

Ridiculosity is a rather neat little concept devised by a friend of mine. Indeed, its such a neat concept that I'll tell you all about it in a journal, *despite* your protestations that you dont want to hear it! Muahahaha!

Ridiculosity is the measurement of how many ridiculous statements are said per sentence in any given text. So, for example, a paragraph in which every sentence is a ridiculous statement has a ridiculosity rating of 1. Ridiculosity is measured in Ridiculens.

Generally, it is rare to get a ridculen measure that is greater than 1. But it is possible! For example:

"Fish are made of lightbulbs, because blue is red"

This has a measurement of two ridiculens - however, it is rare that a whole text will have enough ridiculous statements per sentence to support such a figure.

For a text to have a measurement of 10 ridiculens, it is so ridiculous that it is impossible to read.

For a text to have a measurement of 20 ridiculens, it is so ridiculous your eyes will melt.

For a text to have a measurement of 30 ridiculens, you're likely in the digestive tract of the Great Lord Cthulu.
