Number of cumulative years they would be imprisoned for, had they been caught and convicted of every single crime they ever committed.
I’m betting most adults are not at zero.
Nobody’s at zero. It’s been said that the average American commits 3 felonies per day. The law is so long that you couldn’t read it in a lifetime. There are more criminalized actions than you can imagine.
This wouldn’t impart any useful information in a world where rapist pedophiles get time served and protesters get a life sentence for being adjacent to another crime handing out zines.
The last thing they said. I’ll never have to say “What?” 4 times in a row again.
KDR
Monkeys Paw twist: It includes all the animals you’ve eaten, making the number basically pointless for 99% of people.
Imagine if you saw you unknowingly had a couple of assists. Or seeing someone with a concerning number of deaths.
concerning
How do you quantify that word, personally? For me it’d be anything over 0, though I suppose medical death isn’t that unusual…
The concept of assists makes it even more interesting. I can think of a bunch of people who would have a huge number.
Is “how much I would like them on a scale from 0 to 10 (with a resolution of like 0.01) if I got to know them at a deep level” allowed? Or is that cheating?
It’s a hypothetical question, so yeah. It can be whatever you want it to be. =)
Number of times they molested kids.
First name.
“Hey Janine, can you move your cart out of the way, thanks, gonna get by here and go get some ice cream sandwiches.”
“Excuse me, Ravi, trying to get off the train, one moment, thanks.”
“Oh hey, you’re a Tanis too, just like me, neat!”
This will absolutely weird everyone out.
Tanis is a nice name.
My mom gave it to me!
(And then I kept it when I transitioned, and now she says it’s too feminine and she wishes she didn’t. No backsies, mom! It’s mine and I’ll never be your son.)
Oh of course I’ll play your game Rumplest… random stranger.
A sort of hunger bar. It would be useful in so many situations.
Just a simple binary 0 or 1 to indicate whether the person means what they said literally or figuratively.
I don’t really care to invade people’s privacy, even for altruistic-seeming reasons. I just need a hint about how to interpret a person every so often.
An icon to indicate if they washed their hands after the last time they used the bathroom.
Or a percentage of how clean their hands are.
Some dude with no hands just has a DIV/0 error floating over his head.
Total net worth. No hidden assets or secret bank accounts. Every last cent that a person is worth. Also, it gets brighter/more noticeable whenever you’re advocating for something that increases your net worth.
I feel like this would be the only way to get a lot of people to connect the dots.
