Actually, this is a widespread piece of graffiti, also.  (It's even listed
in the "Dictionary of Graffiti".)

I notice a subtle difference in the male-type-person*'s responses to this
question, compared to the female-type-person*'s ... many of the male type
responses include instances of indirect boasting.  I think this is
interesting for a variety of reasons; there is this subtle difference in
the interpretation of the question.
