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.
Girl, you are so out of luck for the next few years. Even Prince Harry has a beard.

Can we decide on a time to finalize the list, then make an easy way to just go down the list and check off the ones that pertain and get a tallied score at the end?

Isn't that what computers are for?

How can we do that?

I'd really like to help; but, I'm busy singing Danke Schoen and then it'll be Twist and Shout. Maybe one of the spectators ...

+59 if you've ever sold anything you made, played or wrote
-20 if you've ever argued with a known multiple-user-name-troll in the cellar
+9 if you can blow smoke rings
+10 if you bake or make sauces from scratch (no packet mixes)
-75 if you refer to yourself as mom or dad (or local equivalent) in terms of your pet
-50 if you have a dealer license plate frame on your car (dealer employees excepted)
+26 if you walk in a nature environment for pleasure more than once a month

-10 for not reading the rules of this game, and awarding more than 100 or less than - 100

+100 for compiling the score into point averaged values(duplicate rules as per the OP) , then listing them in rows, in order of appearance in a single post, thereby making it easy to quote, and fill in our own scores and post our total coolness quotient.

+20 if the most used car you own is a hybrid
+50 if the most used car you own is an electric car
+100 if you don't own a car and do your errands by walking, horse(-drawn) or public transport
