Hmm. It's a fine line. I think a genuine "10" would be forgetting to go to class because of the computer game. "20-year-old 10" would be *remembering* you had the class but ignoring it because of the computer game.

In my case, as I've said once before, "29" is being in a position to use a $30,000 infra-red thermal imaging night vision scope on the Coastguard boat. Making excuses that we need to practise with all the search equipment, when the real reason is because it's so darn cool, brings it down to about "16". And using it to pretend to be The Predator stalking all the little thermal-imaged people totally hits "12".
