How exactly is the number of "r"'s determined in brrr?

During combat, any successful hit will be followed by a string of Batman-like sound effects. They can include

You hit the Monster

The Monster hits you

The number of sound effects is equal to the square root of the base damage inflicted, rounded up, to a maximum of 10.
If the clown hammer is equipped, the only sound effect used will be SQUEAK!
Creatures that deal cold damage will have their attack messages appended with Brrrrrrrrr.
If you have the Cybernetic Muscles effect, the sounds effect will be replaced by ch-ch-ch-ch-ch.

Most of the sound effects are a reference to the 1960 Batman TV series, where the fight scenes were accompanied with comic-style captions, such as WHAM! and POW!, that would appear on screen in time with the action.
"BARF!" may be a reference to River City Ransom for the NES, where your enemies would sometimes yell "BARF!" when defeated.
"SOCKO!" may be a reference to Mick Foley's wrestling character Mankind, where he used a sock he called Socko on his opponent.
