Batty Points

A system used as a marker for how irritating, smug, feminine or stupid someone is. Like man points, batty points can only be accumulated. They can also only be handed out by someone who has a significant proportion less Batty points than they have whilst also having a significant proporsion more Man Points. Although not classed in some countries as a real qualification, most people will take your 'Batty Count' into consideration whether deciding whether or not you would be a good friend/mating partner. Ways to earn batty points: 1 Ditching friends to hang round with women. 2 Feeling unjustly smug. 3 Repetition of bad jokes/unfunny catchphrases. 4 Not wanting to do something manly 5 Making a big fuss over minor injuries 6 Whining & Crying 7 Caring too much about your appearance.8 Making trivial mistakes which affect you/your friends situation. 9 Lying about how many Batty/Man points you have. 10 Trying to hand out Batty/Man points without correct Man Point quota. Traditionally an individuals' Batty Count is recorded in the local 'Batty Tome' (working in conjuction with the Tome of Man) although more recently councils have been testing out online prototypes with varying sucess.
