Let's revise the poll.
Give yourself a point if you wore a uniform and swore to protect and serve.
Give yourself a point if you have risked your life to save another's.
Give yourself a point if you have raised children who contribute to their community.
Give yourself a point if you have comforted the sick or dying.

7 here.

I've been on 5 music cruises ... nothing better.. serious blues/jamband cruises .

Do I have to make it an 11 instead?

You could not drag my dead azz on a regular one tho'

That's how I read it.

5

No tats, skydiving, zip line, cruise and one other that was not jail.

[GH85Carrera]

I scored an 8. Never arrested, no tats, never done drugs (other than alcohol).

[DavidI]

6 for me

Totally badass. I can't even imagine what that could be like, and to be honest I don't even dare let my imagination run with it.

Absolutely. 🇨🇦
(And the original poll should have been scored with points added and not subtracted for badassery,)

[ben parrish]

Let’s just say I am an overachiever on that quiz.

[Rick Lee]

1 point

[David]

3, because I'm an idiot who's afraid of heights and needles

[p911dad]

I scored a 2, possibly a 3 (I used to drop skydivers out of an old Cessna Skyhawk, but after hearing "geranimo!!" enough times I decided those guys are crazy, so I never actually did it).

[Por_sha911]

4 because "5 is right out" (iykyk)

I’m not sure ‘been on a cruise’, even a carnival one qualifies anyone as badass. And unless singing karaoke became a combat sport I have doubts about that too.

11.

It doesn't …. I might have the maf wrong ... but I scored a 7.

But a cruise with music royalty like Taj in his day ... or coffee on the pool deck early .... just bs'ing.

I didn't recognize Lee Oskar

....he was a friend of mine .... with a Cajun zydeco band providing half of the funk on that tiny ship and stage... a few feet away.

Pricele$$

I'm unpierced unless fishhooks count. I will not jump out of a plane willingly.

being on a cruise shouldn't be on that list..I think that is the opposite side of cool and badass. but it's on my list.

other than that..I am good to go. and I could make a better list.

singing karaoke well shouldn't be on that list. I lip sing at church because I am an absolute tone-deaf harpy. I have sung karaoke, with a prostitute in Taiwan, with my wife in the room, and I was drunk. total badassery...

but singing well, nope.

So you served on a boat? In a way cheating. The worst typhoon ever could be blowing & you'd never feel it. Also, submariners get the best chow and other goodies...all perks damned well earned! Thanks for your service...
