Introducing the bsometer by sandboxer Čerenkov. Not that it is needed in the sandbox. Just in case...

The Anybody Want A Peanut's gadgets, gauges and technology division is proud to introduce the Bull sh1t-O-Meter (patent pending). There have been others, but this one is better because it accurately reflects the levels of bull sh1t, as detected by the AWAP BS sensors.

Here's how it works: It measures levels of disingenuosity (a.k.a. bull sh1t) in statements, press releases, answers, or other public verbiage, on a scale of zero to four, as follows:
Introducing the bsometer BSO%2B3

0 - Straight up, yo.
2 - Partially full of crap
4 - Completely and totally full of sh1t

So, for example, if Gilles Duceppe were to say "I want Quebec to separate from Canada", that would rate a zero on the meter because it's a genuine sentiment. However, if he were to say "I want to do what's best for Quebecers" that would rate a 3, because while there is a kernel of truth in that, it is largely crap.

Look for the bsometer in action in future coverage of politics and other things here at the Peanut.

Hmm. Looks like I'll have to create a special compact version of the Bull sh1t-O-Meter for the sandbox.
