No way Jose!  It is measurable, or it might be.  All we need to do is develop a hubrometer, and a system of standards.  We could have competing dual units, English and metric.  Then come up with a specialized mathematical system for modeling the admittedly high end, this gigahubris.  We could have competitions to see who is the most hubric.  That would be cool, you could win just by saying with sufficient sincerity that you will win.  Of course the rest of you guys need not bother challenging me to a hubris contest, I would just embarrass you.
