My Ride: 2006 525XI, Jet black on Dakota beige. Premium and winter packages. I consider myself a purist and intend to keep my car absolutely stock and shiny.
2008 328I Convertible, Sapphire black on beige interior. Premium package, NAV, iPod adapter.
Retired: 2002 325I, Titanium silver on black leather. Premium package. Absolutely stock and proud of it.
Proof that the human mind has no boundaries. Prepare to be blown away:
Add the age you will be this year to the year you were born and the answer will be current year, no matter what year you do this.

Take your age now, subtract the age of your first born child, the number remaining is the age you were when you became a parent
..and if you subtract the younger age of you and your spouse/partner, from the older of the two ages, the number you come up with is your age difference. I just tried it, it really works.

Here's another "amazing mathematical trick" with an equal amount of amazing:
Take your age now, subtract the age of your first born child, the number remaining is the age you were when you became a parent
..and if you subtract the younger age of you and your spouse/partner, from the older of the two ages, the number you come up with is your age difference. I just tried it, it really works.

Another one just popped into my radar. If you subtract the year you started working at your company from the current year, it will tell you how many years you've been working at your current job. I know, it blew my mind too when I found this gem.

Started working there in 99, current year is 12. So 12-99 = -87. Daaaamn. I won't start working there for another 87 years
