The Scoville Scale is a measurement of the pungency (spiciness or “heat”) of chili peppers, as recorded in Scoville Heat Units (SHU). The hottest pepper to date is the Carolina Reaper measuring 2,200,000 SHU. To understand how incredibly hot they are compare them to a standard Jalapeño Pepper that registers between 2,500 and 8,000 SHU.
Scientists at the Whackadoodle Laboratories in Washington have devised a method of adapting SHU to measure stupidity in humans. The human equivalent scale, designated Scoville Stupidity Units (SSU), has proven to be the most accurate method to date to scientifically identify those individuals with a defective Cerebrum, the part of the brain that, among other things, enables speech, judgment, thinking and reasoning.
In Phase III trials the staff has recorded 2,200,000 SSU in people that still believe a twice impeached serial liar and egomaniac would make a good president. To understand how incredibly stupid they are compare them to the average person who thinks any politician gives a rat’s ass about them. They registers between 2,500 and 8,000 SSU.
