The scheme seems to be confusing people. The subjective scale is binary, how it feels: from ok to life-is-hell. The objective scale is your assessment of badness in the range of things that could happen. If the answer to “can this get worse” is “yes” you’re not yet at 100.

Some days a 4/100 event can put you in a life-is-hell mood, other days, you’ll laugh off even an 85/100 event

Spoon theory people are in a state where say the 10th event is the hell-switch event no matter what the sequence of 10 events is. Fixed price psyche economy.

IMO timing plays a big role here. Getting rear ended, not the end of the world. Same thing happens before an important meeting, it may well be. So a « large » set of poorly/perfectly timed medium inconveniences in quick succession would probably do it for me.

Realizing I’m the only one that cares and realizing that I only cared b/c I thought everyone else cared. 1/100
