The "How stressed can I be?” Contest


Religion-Outside-The-Box is proud to host its first official (and utterly sarcastic) spiritual contest.

Everyone can participate!*

Simply use this convenient scale to calculate how many different stress-filled events you’ve managed to simultaneously survive over the last 12 months. (You can add additional points if you’ve had multiple experiences of an event.) Or just be creative and calculate your stress according to your own scale.

Stress-filled events may include, but are not limited to:
  • Worry.
  • Change.
  • Responsibility.
  • Trouble.
  • Illness.
Total all your applicable stressors and then share your point total and/or experiences below.

Grand prize: Perverse satisfaction & pity.
Runner-up prize: More stress because you didn't win.

Contest ends August 15, 2006.

Winners will be announced in edition #28 of the 77% Weekly.

Contest Rules and Regulations:
Religion-Outside-The-Box membership is not required. One entry per person, please. Artificially inflating your stress for the purpose of winning this contest is strictly frowned upon and may result in disqualification. (Does anyone really need to inflate their stress levels?) Winners will be selected from those posting on the Religion-Outside-The-Box blog.
