So one of our clients decided that this whole severity rating system was just way too confusing. Here’s what he’s confused by:

• High
• Medium
• Low

I know… super extremely confusing, with all of the highs and lows. So he decided it would be far better to upgrade the system to a more “intuitive” system:

• Foul
• Nasty
• Ugly

Yes, that’s much better… now I can spend five minutes trying to decipher which one of those things is high, medium and low, instead of… you know… just seeing that it says high medium or low. Because I can’t for the life of me figure out which is which now unless I see it in order next to a key that describes which one is high, medium and low. Yes, how didn’t I think of that? So much better. I’d like to offer a slight modification, because I think this would be even more intuitive. The emoticon version:
