Badass Quotient System List (some LOTR character included)

I love it when people have "who would win in a fight" conversations. You know the kind - "Who would win in a fight between Robocop and the Terminator?" or "Who would win a fight between Peewee Herman and Gilligan?" Etc...

But something that is always laking in those conversations is a proper, quantifiable, measurement of how much of a "bad-ass" someone or something is.

Toward that end - here is my BAQ (Badass Quotient) System:

Fire Ant ---------------------------------------------------- BAQ = 1
Sewer Rat ------------------------------------------------ BAQ = 10
Chihuahua ------------------------------------------------- BAQ = 100
Drunk Redneck armed with a pool cue -------- BAQ = 1,000
Green Beret armed with a machete ------------ BAQ = 10,000
Silverback Gorilla ------------------------------------- BAQ = 100,000
Black Rhino -------------------------------------------- BAQ = 1,000,000
Tyrannosaurus Rex ---------------------------------- BAQ = 10,000,000

It would take about 10 fire ants to evenly fight 1 sewer rat.
It would take about 10 sewer rats to evenly fight 1 Chiwawa.
It would take about 10 Chihuahuas to evenly fight 1 drunk redneck armed with a pool cue.
ETC...

Now we have a scale on which we can use to measure the "Bad-assness" of almost anyone or anything!

Here are just a few examples (the compleate list can be found here http://www.normandcompany.com/INDEX/BAQ.html):

I don't think you've met many sewer rats. A PICTURE of a sewer rat could take a Chihuahua.
or Jeffrey Dahmer, who only dared pick on children. >:-(

Hmm, okay, and I am being completely honest, My friend John is totally into SCA and is some grand poobah there. He has all things mentioned above,real armor, sword, horse the whole nine yards. Horse is a friggen clydesdale no less. I beat the ever loving CRAP out of him armed with a nice staff and jeans and teeshirt, while he was dressed like a tin can atop of a horse, with sword and shield and lance. (though he wrapped the sword in leather)

And supposedly he is a pretty good fighter too. First thing I did was when he charged me, ducked then grabbed his arm and hauled myself up behind him, and wrestled his tin can ass out of the saddle. I think he fall winded him, much to my advantage. He then did the whole sword and sheild thing, so I used the staff as a spear and kept him at bay, then whacked him HARD when he charged me. I admit, he did catch me with his sheild once or twice, and that hurt. But all in all, I ended up breaking my staff over his head and that was the end of him. I still have his sword. It's a monsterous brute. Heh, he was black and blue all over, and I was untouched.

So...that would make my badassness what?

I guess that would depend on how much of the people (and things) that are mentioned ase more bad then the armed and armored knight. So what do you think: up for a match with Darth Vader with a lightsaberthingy?
You have my support though!

Clifford the Big Red Dog above an Oliphaunt??? Rabbit and Chihuahua above Sewer Rat? (What kind of sewer rat are you thinking of?) And I bet a barn owl could take C3PO. Cool list though. Neat story Sane! Oh, and I think my own BAQ would be about 308.
