calculate my percentage attraction to, say, Kylie Minogue, they would proceed thus:
1.Write out on a piece of paper:
Matthew Fasham
Loves
Kylie Minogue
2.Count up the number of l, o, v, e, and s's in each name as follows:
1,1,0,3,1
3.Add up the adjacent numbers, pair by pair, to get:
2,1,3,4
4.Again:
3,4,7
5.Again:
7, 11
6.And finally, the percentage that I love Kylie Minogue, 18%.
This depressingly small percentage, if calculated in a school classroom, would be taken as conclusive proof of gayness.Additionally, as the percentage works both ways, I now know that my hitherto dogged pursuit of Kylie is doomed to a loveless failure.

Ok

Wait.. Just wait..
