    I’d agree with you. Sweating can be a 2-3. Starting to get hot. 4 might be crying involuntarily and nose running. 5 involves numbing to the point you don’t feel anything anymore and get a runners high.

    Now that I think about it, people say my scales are fucked up. Like at the hospital what they ask pain on a scale of 1-10, I always imagine 10 being a combination of many of the worst tortures you have heard of or can imagine. I had my puss filled swollen inflamed taint sliced open and drained which is apparently one of the more painful procedures but it made sense for me to rate it an 8. Nurses tell me everyone says 10 at the smallest thing.

    Indian is spicy in that it uses lots of spices. It doesnt rank real high on the spice meter imo. Even the “ghost pepper vindaloo” at a specialty hot Indian place near me doesn’t rate much more than 3/5 and that’s the hottest Indian I’ve found. Everything else at the many Indian places I’ve been only reaches maybe a 1.5. I grow ghost peppers annd I don’t think they really use em. Any Thai or Burmese places “white people spicy” is about the same.

    You can’t ditch currency. Currency isn’t some grand invention of the state. It’s the direct result of beings valuing things at different amounts at different times. Technically current is using any stand in to ease the trade barrier but colloquially some people use love as a currency. Many kinds of social animals trade and what they trade could be deemed currency.
