Here’s something to give you a chuckle (especially if you’re at work) on a Friday afternoon. Do you know what it really means to give something 100% or more than 100%? Well, someone’s figured it out mathematically! Here’s a treat from Blogvaria entitled “Simple Math”:

If: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

is represented as: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26

It is obvious that H-A-R-D W-O-R-K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%

And K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

But A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

While B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T
2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%

Finally, and most effectively A-S-S K-I-S-S-I-N-G
1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 127%

So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that while Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, it’s the Bullshit and Ass Kissing that will put you over the top!
