...something. We need a standardized metric to tell us if we’re making bad decisions when we’re not sober enough to think for ourselves. Ergo, I present to you the Anonymity-Sketchiness Ratio, easily remembered as the ASR. In order for your action to not be sketchy, its anonymity must be as high as possible relative to its sketchiness. For those of you still in Math Xa, anonymity goes in the numerator and sketchiness goes in the denominator. Higher numbers are good: it means your witnesses don’t know or care...

Remember, this ratio is just a rule of thumb designed to keep you grounded when you can’t trust your first instinct about appropriate behavior. There are certain notable conditions under which calculating the Non-Sketchy ratio will not sufficiently lead to the best course of action. If you have one of those final club-hopping TFs, his presence at a party would make even a slurred sentence way too sketchy. Leave immediately. If you spot your crush across the room right as you begin to hop up on the keg to perform the gargoyle, do a leapfrog...
Neither player returned to action, yet Clark dispelled any serious concerns after the game...
...withdrawn and the war against al-Qaeda is fought mostly with drones and special forces, would be "shortsighted." A week later, the President said essentially the same thing at a meeting of congressional leaders. And while it could be argued that McChrystal overstepped by dissing one possible course of action in the midst of a presidential strategy review, it could also be argued that the option dissed was not under consideration...
