Tim reads the Hawthorne skincare/cologne ad, riffing extensively on an imagined quiz that rates how disgusting your face and smell are.

In this bit10 moments
  • Hawthorne's quiz tells you which two colognes are best for you, one for work and one for play.
  • Tim describes the target customer: someone with a face that looks rubbed against a brick wall.
  • The quiz doesn't ask hard questions like discussing imperialism—it asks simpler things about your appearance.
  • Quiz question: when you look in the mirror, do you wish you're a different person or want to die?
  • The quiz also asks what you smell like: a sad gym teacher who drinks too much or a cabbie rotting in a car.
  • Tim lists facial conditions the quiz covers: boils, lesions, pimples, blisters, open wounds, leathery neck skin.
  • Rate your face on a scale between crumbling brick wall and sunken boat.
  • Rate your skin between a victim on the first 48 who's starting to turn and a Dick Tracy villain.
  • Hawthorne.com—spelled h-a-w-t-h-o-r-n-e with an e—offers 10 percent off with code tim.
  • Tim corrects himself on the website spelling, saying it's hawthorne.co, not .com.
