Bottle of rum consistently gave 3. T8er tots gave 1. Backwoods screwdriver gave 9. The formula might be something like (Fullness or Inebriety)*(Drink quality). Quality being 1-4 from crappy, decent, good, awesome.--Toffile (talk) 04:18, 1 March 2013 (UTC)

I got 5 calories for a mind flayer corpse. Also when I got (what I assume) was royal jelly for the message I got %%. --Maxdroom (talk) 04:33, 1 March 2013 (UTC)

There are no items for multi-using 70 calories to 7000 calories. --Cannonfire40 (talk) 06:59, 1 March 2013 (UTC)

There are no items for 80, 90, or 100 calories. --Graevy (talk) 05:09, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

Might the femtocalorie bit be a reference to the tesla? It's a scientific unit of measurement that is substantially larger than can actually be seen in practice, and a magnetic flux density of 1 tesla is crazy strong. Laboratories have only recently started going beyond 5 T. Or perhaps just a generic "some units of measurement in physics are ludicrously impractical (almost paradoxically)". The unit of mass one would derive from other standard constants would be around the mass of a grain a dust, which is radically heavier than an electron. --Flargen (talk) 17:37, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

  • The joke is about the difference between Calories and calories. It's already on the page. The wording makes this kind of clear, there's no need to look at a second unit.--Toffile (talk) 21:42, 3 March 2013 (UTC)
    • Yeah, I guess that covers it well enough. The scale is much larger, but chalk that up to comedy. --Flargen (talk) 14:22, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
