Since this site is called “Eccentric Randomness” I decided I couldn’t very well have a normal rating system. No two thumbs up or five stars or anything like that for me. I need something different.

I did a call for “random objects” and I got a few interesting answers: spork, kumquat, platypus, wombat, pineapple, fish head, and squash. Then I thought to myself: “Self…why are you looking for something else random? Your favorite animal is random enough!”  For example, this is PART of my collection that’s accumulated over the past 17 years.

Therefore, my rating system will be based on HIPPOS!

From now on, when I review something, it will be given between zero and 4 hippos. No halves, because half a hippo would be too weird, even for me. So, look for this guy to show up in lots of places, only smaller, and in groups. 🙂
