Zero tolerance

From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia.

Zero tolerance is a trait that enables some individuals to experience multiple instances of zero with no outward signs of distress. Researchers believe the physiological basis for this trait relates to the hormone zerosterone, one of a family of stress hormones. Ethologists have found instances of this trait in a number of warm blooded animal species and in one species of terrapin.

[edit] History

Anecdotes about individuals coexisting with zero captivated the pioneering student of human minds, Edwin Foyd. He tracked down three individual humans and one squirrel who he claimed possessed this unexpected character trait. He didn't give the trait a name, but called individual non-adverse responses to zero zero tolerance. Other developments in psychology would overshadow this line of inquiry for the next 70 years in-as-much-as no-one could take Foyd's scholarship seriously.

At best, historians have scanty evidence that ancient cultures made use of the zero tolerance phenomena. Because the ancients lacked a concept of zero, they had difficulty knowing when they were and weren't tolerating it.
