What about the word "a", one of the most common words of the English language, surely it's got to rate highly, since it's so important...
*calculates*
A = 1%
... ONE PERCENT! WHAT THE HELL!!!!!
Oh, and Nate, I disagree with some of your answers.
To give the effort of more than one average person on an average type of day.
Average does not necessarily equal 100%. You don't score 100% in a test by breaking average. To give MORE than 100% is to give more than you are able to, by definition making it impossible to give more than 100% (of your potential, this is. You can give 200% of an apple... as long as you have two of them).
We have all been in situations where someone wants you to give over 100%.
That would be your typical slavedriving boss or your typical company goal.
Yep, although again you'd need more than 1 of yourself to give more than 100% (like the first question, 100% is 1)
How about achieving 101%?
Sure. Put forth an 8 hour, 4 minute, and 48 second effort within 8 hours and you will be giving 101%.
101% of what? If again you're referring to your potential, it's impossible.
What equals 100% in life?
Living the life of one person. Those who attempt 200% eventually reveal their dark secret.
[b]In life, 100% of anything equals 1 of such a thing. If you live life 100%, it means you were alive until you died.
I suppose trying to post something I was trying to be serious with was too much for everybody...
Shame on you for trying.
