Do I win some sort of prize for soberly attempting to nail down that which is intentionally ambiguous?

That's totally what I meant. Maybe you're not that bad after all.

I begrudgingly feel the same.

(This is just like that moment where the two cats pass each other in the hallway, rear their ears back, let out a couple raspy hisses, maybe raise a paw or two, and then proceed to not rip each other to totally bloody shreds, at least for the time being.)

TFW when men consider the phrase "still kinda hot" a compliment.

Qwertyy... (Sorry, can't reply individually for some reason?)

The "hot" part is clearly undercut by the "kinda"... The "still" part, which references age obviously, could either be a compliment or an insult, depending (ie: "still hot" would have been a compliment, like "hey, she's older, but she's still hot!" However, when paired with "kinda," the "still" takes on a more insulting flavor).

I've had girlfriends that were kinda hot, but not really that hot. If I saw them years down the line and they were still the same level of attractive they'd be kinda hot still. Not to mention that they don't frequent the same forums that I do (or any).
