Talking What does FIFTY stand for?

Hello,

What does FIFTY stand for? (various wording)
It's a question that I get a lot. One of the statements I get is wow, I can't wait for my 50th birthday.

If you care to play, let's see some responses.

My most snarky version is "Shades of Grey". If the questioner is cute, I might lie about being the movie's financier, the book's editor, or something about creating merchandise for marketing purposes. You?

Kindest,

Donner

"thousand dollars, the cost of the car." Then you can add that a 1SS with less options has a badge that states "FORTY."
