Master Suho's Mirth Scale

The inmates tend to post jokes and other humor-related materials here at the Asylum. Some of it is funny, and some of it is not so funny. In an attempt to systemize my reactions to humor-related materials, I have developed the following mirth scale, which basically registers my physical reaction to said material, ranging from worst to best:

-5: actual, physical pain due to complete lack of funniness
-4: pained dismay
-3: grimace
-2: rolled eyes
-1: raised eyebrow
0: blank stare
1: smirk
2: grin
3: smile
4: snicker/snort
5: chuckle
6: giggle
7: laugh
8: chortle
9: guffaw
10: side-splitting spasmic belly laugh

The original scale did not have negative numbers, but I decided to add these just to be fair to everyone...
