Hello SeqFans,
here are 3 seq I've discussed with my friend Alexandre W.
S%, T% and U% are 3 finite seq of 100 terms each. 
They self-describe their content in a "percentage way":

S% = 1,2,2,3,3,3,4,4,4,4,6,6,6,6,6,6,7,7,7,7,7,7,7,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,9,9,9,9,9,9,9,9,9,10,10,10,10,10,10,10,10,10,10,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,12,12,12,12,12,12,12,12,12,12,12,12,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14.

T% =
1,4,4,4,4,5,5,5,5,5,6,6,6,6,6,6,7,7,7,7,7,7,7,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,9,9,9,9,9,9,9,9,9,10,10,10,10,10,10,10,10,10,10,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,12,12,12,12,12,12,12,12,12,12,12,12,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14.

U% = 
2,2,3,3,3,5,5,5,5,5,6,6,6,6,6,6,7,7,7,7,7,7,7,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,9,9,9,9,9,9,9,9,9,10,10,10,10,10,10,10,10,10,10,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,12,12,12,12,12,12,12,12,12,12,12,12,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14,14.

Explanation (for U%, immediately above):

Among the 100 terms of U%, only two are '2' --> there is 2% of '2'
Among the 100 terms of U%, only three are '3' --> there is 3% of '3'
Among the 100 terms of U%, only five are '5' --> there is 5% of '5'
Among the 100 terms of U%, only six are '6' --> there is 6% of '6'
...
Among the 100 terms of U%, only fourteen are '14' --> there is 14% of '14'
END.

Those are the only such 100-term possible seq -- and S% is the 
lexically first (then T%, then U%).
A 1000-term such seq is easy to build. And a 10,000 one also, etc.
But is it possible to build an infinite seq like that? Well, there
is at least this one : H% = 100,100,100,100,100,100,100,100,...
;-D
Best,
É.
