As the election nears Bouncy Tale season is also close at hand. We all know that the Bouncy Tales from the DUmp have been sort of sad for a while now. Scoring them based on Bouncy Tales of the past only results in very low scores. I propose a completely new standardized Bouncy Tale scoring system. The top score possible in this system would be 15; however, it is set up so that even the most pathetic Bouncy fabricator can receive a score of at least 8.
I have some proposed scoring perimeters shown below. I’m completely open to suggestions; however, I think the system should be as simple as possible since we are dealing with DUmmies.
Beginning the story with the word “so†results in 1 point.
Having the story take place at a gas station or grocery store results in 1 point.
Having a crowd watching results in 1 point.
Confronting a conservative results in 1 point.
Converting said conservative results in 1 point.
Making the conservative cry or rendering him speechless results in 1 point.
Making the conservative flee results in 1 point.
Having the observers clap or cheer results in 1 point.
Having a cop jump out of the bushes results in 5 points.
The overall story being entertaining results in 2 points.

I like your idea.
One aspect about your idea that I for one will resist to the end is substituting points for bongs !
Long live the bong !

Maybe bonus points for the cause of the bouncy?
Bumper sticker=1
Fox News on TV=1
Rush Limbaugh on radio=2
Billboard=1
Shirt=1

obumazombie, I don’t think there is a problem replacing the word ‘points’ with the word ‘bongs’.
Fiddy, your idea has merit. I’m just trying to keep the highest possible score at 15 or below.
How about the following revision?

Rethuglican damaged my car, sign, property because of bumper sticker etc. 1pt.
Teabagger gave dirty look or cut me off 1pt extra credit for driving a smoke belching pickup with a gun rack and Dixie flag.

I like it, Flippy. You have my seal/stamp of approval. :whistling: :)

Changes in bold. I decided to add medical office so as not leave out the DUmmie that's been an intern for years.

This thread needs to be stickered to the top till we slow learners can remember the scoring system.

Nicely done, Flippy.

I actually developed a standardized Bouncy scoring system a few years back - :-) http://conservativecave.com/index.php?topic=32510.msg341648#msg341648 - the system delivers one bong hit per item, so hitting all points delivers a "10 Bong Hit" rating. Perhaps we can merge some of this into the new proposal ?
1 the tale starts with a conjunction
2 introduces a 'villain',
3 a 'hero',
4 and a 'victim',
5 includes an unexpected threat
6 contains a conversion of the 'villain' to 'hero', 'victim' or both.
7 contains verbatim quotes
8 includes commentary about the sorry state of affairs
9 includes at least some topical political discussion
10 contains at least one snarky comment that flies over the head of the 'villain'

I wonder who has the most bouncies. :lmao:

You must have direct quotes from both parties as well.
i.e. "You only voted for Obama because he's a gay black muslim kenyan!" she shouted insanely as the people looked on in a moking way...
BUT- I like it.

Sorry I missed that miskie. Or I may have seen it and just forgot. I sometimes suffer from CRS.
While it does look like I hit on most of your points, I did leave a very important one out which is the verbatim quotes. Below is my lated revision.

I like it :D - it seems to cover all points in the typical bouncy tale, and it creates a new 15 Bong hit maximum, worthy of only the most skilled DUmmies. - Which almost none of them will ever achieve.

Thanks.
I'd also like to point out that the choice of 15 was not arbitrary. We all know the DUmmies have severe problems with math. With the high not exceeding 15 even the DUmmies like MasterNumbskull should be able to count off the points on their fingers and toes.

Okay ... So I'm sitting in a Doctor's waiting room ...
Waiting on Mrs. 1SBM. She having a procedure done that the ACA provides for at no cost, "unless there is a medical situation. "
There is an older lady sitting across from me with her daughter. They're talking about stuff folks talk about to kill time while waiting. The mother, being older, is talking a little louder than "normal", so we can'thelp but hear their conversation ... and, the mother is saying some funny stuff ... in that uncensored, older person, kind of way.
When out the blue the mother says, {something about} that damn ed Hillary Clinton .. she such a liar ... just like that (President) Obama!"
The daughter gets this horrified look on her face and tells her mother, "shhh, no politics. You know what it does to your blood pressure. They won't do the procedure.!"
BTW, it's the same procedure Mrs. 1SBM is having that ObamaCare, now, provides for free.

I am...was...or used to be a republican until = 5 points if republican is spelled correct, 2 otherwise.

Do acceptable alternate spellings count, such as...Rethuglican ?
I'm a ReSCU Mlican by the way.

I'm a ReSCUMlican by the way.
That's my new favorite.

I'm carrying on in honor of a nearly extinct indian tribe closely related to the Mohicans.
I'm a ReSCU pilot who comes to the aid of those in peril on land and sea.
That makes me a ReSCU Mlican (a space makes all the difference).

Total rating in bongs, would be the best, just my .02

I honestly thought about adding something in about spelling in general, but after giving it some thought, it dawned on me that doing so would remove a lot of DUmmies out of Bouncy contention.

You forgot to add a bonus for reference to a fictional spirit guide.
