I see what you did there.

You could have just said +50 for driving a minivan, but you knew that would be too obvious. Clever girl

Oh no no, because I don't think driving a minivan makes you cool. Actually, I think wanting to drive a cool car makes one uncool, because vehicles are way overrated. But minivans aren't inherently cool.

On the other hand, I've expressed my distaste for facial hair many times. The number of millimeters of facial hair a man has is directly proportional to my Kinsey Number.
