Threshold

The threshold refers to a certain point in the ratings system. In order to understand the threshold, a definition of the rating system must be given. The rating is a system used to rate either men or women and it is a score out of 10. 5 points are for the personality/character and the other 5 are designated exclusively for looks. When you see a person and which to rate them purely on looks, a premature rating out of 5 is given.

Now the threshold refers to the point in which the other person you have rated is rated so highly to you that you would wish to sleep with them. The threshold is between 7.5 and 10.0. It must be noted that there is no threshold on a premature rating because before sleeping with someone, it is imperative that you must have some form of verbal contact with them unless of course you are a rapist. This system operates on the presumption that if one finds another attractive, they'd want to sleep with them.

Note: A high score is typically anything above an 8. Just like the NFL draft ratings system.

Note: Sex is not required to cross the flesh threshold.

A concept named after Ash Williams by the Youtuber "The Librarian". It is the point at which horror games lose the ability to scare players after the player was exposed enough to the game and it's contents. It is frequently crossed in the FNaF games, where after enough deaths, the animatronics become an annoying nuisance, than a terrifying enemy to look out for.

The level of alcohol intake where you cross the point of no return and spend the evening 'goating around', self control is lost and a hangover is almost inevitable.

Anything after the goat threshold is the birthplace of "It seemed like a good idea at the time".
