L is for List
Wednesday, April 4, 2007
L helped me count the number of people I know, and just how many times I've snobbed a whole lot of people.
Number of people I know: 198 (many are forgotten, this is what we have counted and remembered so far)
Number of people I know (excluding family, relatives, distant relatives and the like): 131
From the 131, we have concluded that:
> Around 87 of them I know personally - meaning, I have known them for at least more than 2 minutes of my life, and have walked at least 1 meter with them with at most a 11 cm distance between. Those who don't fall to that category, you are probably on the other 44 people I know. Period. Meaning, I only know you by name and/or face and/or academic achievements, and I have not stepped more than twice with you, and have not spoken beyond the simplest of hi's and hello's.
> Of the 87, 53 are former and/or existing classmates that I currently see around school. The remaining 34 are 2nd level friends (friends of friends) and most probably, you're from the same school as mine (the one I attend today).
> In the 53 former classmates, the number of people I still talk to is 4. Snob count: 49 people.
> Of the 34 2nd level friends, I say Hello to 26 people. Snob count: 8 people. ("Achievement!", as L said.)
> Among the 44 that are blurs, there are only 7 I consistently say Hi to, or at least wave and make a 1 second eye contact. There rest, I ignore. Snob count: 37 people.
Total Snob Count: 94 people.
71% of the people I know, I ignore.
Of course, not including those I have forgotten, which would definitely increase the percentage.
Where do I put you?
