Knowing your P's and Q's

Ever since someone started a storm in the T cup by coining the phrase EQ and landing in best-seller territory, there have been a lot of me-too's or wannabes trying to come up with another smart acronym- and a bestseller. So, giving my imagination a long rope, here's my list of Q's.

AQ - Awesomeness Quotient, useful if you are a teenager with limited vocabulary.

BQ - Bitchiness Quotient. Cat-fights are among cats. Who says?

CQ - Creepiness Quotient. You can usually recognise the high-scorers in seconds.

DQ - Dumb-bell Quotient. Does not discriminate between genders. Or hair colour.

EQ is already taken. Millions made.

FQ - this is easy. Fun Quotient.

GQ - Gregariousness Quotient.

HQ - Hemming and Hawing Quotient, from Hamlet, who had a high score.

IQ- the original one.

JQ - Joviality Quotient.

KQ - Kissability Quotient, for the daters.

LQ - Loveability Quotient, for those who love other humans. Tinder, loving care.

MQ - Marriageability Quotient, similar to the one above. Also similar to Money Quotient.

NQ - Nonsense Quotient. Easy to find, particularly in celebrities.

OQ - Over-the-top Quotient. Lady Gaga? She gets my vote for the top of the tops.

PQ - Pliability Quotient. People high on this are usually called 'chamchas'.

QQ - Quotability Quotient. Oscar Wilde and Benjamin Disraeli were peak performers.

RQ - Rockstar Quotient. As we all know, people rock, even if they are not into rock 'n roll

SQ - Slipperiness Quotient, for all those slippery-as-eel characters.

TQ - Tantrum throwing Quotient. Particularly useful for children, girlfriends and dare I say it, wives.

UQ - Uniqueness Quotient. Difficult to establish, as there are seven billion of us all with two hands, an ear, and a nose. Personal branding might help.

VQ - Vanity Quotient, measured by the number of times you look in the mirror in an hour. Or at your Fb DP to check the number of likes.

WQ - Weirdness Quotient. No limits to how weird you can get.

XQ - The X factor, not a quotient. Unexplained, yet important.

YQ - Yaari Quotient. As in Yaari dosti, one which you have to 'nibhao' once in a while.

ZQ - Zinda-dili Quotient. Zest-for-life could be an equivalent Quotient.

Yes, Sowmya. The benefits of eating Instant Noodles, I guess.
