    The one that seems slightly unbelievable to me is the “body count”. Unless he didn’t know what it’s used for now and was trying to play it off as a joke.

      … What is it used for now? I have a guess, but if correct, I’ve never heard it used that way.

        Body count is how many different people you’ve had sex with. Or how many you’ve murdered, but usually at a get-together it’s the first one.

          The first one was my guess, but I’ve sincerely never heard it used that way.

          The second one is the way I’ve heard it used before.

          Thank you for the answer.
