Poll: Coolness

[Doktor Merkwurdigliebe]

Ladies and Escapists. It is time to discuss the problem of coolness, or its lack. How do we understand it? What, in our culture would describe one as "cool"? Of course you are all welcome to participate in the poll(which, of course, is absolutely not added to draw attention), to check if Escapists(and Ladies) consider themselves "cool", no matter the definition...

I consider myself average. Some people say i'm cool. Others say i'm a prick.

 

[DannyBoy451]

I own a leather jacket, therefore I must be cool.

Spoiler

 

[Rathy]

I find myself really not caring. Besides, the 'cool' elitist people who say you aren't 'cool' enough are just annoying as all hell. They can be 'cool' in their lonely little 'cool' world.

But really, cool is just such a vague term now I don't bother. It just keeps splitting groups too much now and confuses me...

 

[teisjm]

I'm not that cool... more of a hot person

 

[VanityGirl]

Coolness is a mind set. I personally find the frat boys at my college to be elitist and actually pretty annoying.

Butttt... just because it kind of fits this thread

I spend nearly all my time on this site, looking for something that warrants me taking time to think about it and then follow up the thinking with a typed expression of those thoughts.
If that's not cool, then cool can go suck a spoiled twinkie.
Yeah.

Wait, what? You think "coolness" is something else?
Like what? Driving fast cars, being able to deal with people with witty one liners off the top of your head, and always getting the object of desire?
Well...screw you!

"Hell Yeah, I was born with 6-pack and popped collar."
I wasn't aware the question was "Do you consider yourself a douchebag."
But now that I know it is, I would have to answer in the negative.

I do not believe I am a douchebag, I keep my collar as God intended.

That's why everyone is free to define his view of coolness. For the first option I chose the stereotypic party-dwelling "Cooldude". Of course I won't change this topic into extremes of douchebagging, but if anyone has a suggestion of another option in the poll, post it.

 

[Radeonx]

Yes.
In fact, I'm the coolest person in existence.
Fonzi?
Based on me.
Andrew Jackson?
Tried to be as badass as me, but failed.

 

[JanatUrlich]

Shit yeah I'm cool

 

[Xojins]

I don't really give two shits about whether people think I'm cool.

Who knew god was so concenred with collars. I shall put mine back down immediately. Now how will people know how cool I am? At least they will still know I'm in a frat by the burned letters on my arm. Take that Bro.

 

[Monkfish Acc.]

Nope.
Being cool usually involves having some idea of what the kids are into these days.
I am far too apathetic to ever pay attention to any of that crap.

 

[Smudge91]

This thread has reminded me of the song "I'm not cool" by the Sohodolls. I don't think i'm generally cool, you could pass me easily and never know i was there. I'm like casper.

I always enjoy these kinds of threads because where I'm from we don't actually have a "cool vs. uncool" thing going on.

Having said that I do the whole witty one-liners thing quite well and I'm proud of that.

some people say "your so cool" to me and others say "******" XD

 

[Lord George]

I own a leather jacket, therefore I must be cool.

Spoiler

Basically this, I also drive a motorbike and hang around with other motorbike, leather wearing people who all smoke, which gives the illusion that I smoke thus making me even cooler with none of the lung cancer.

 

[similar.squirrel]

I have..Mystique. I mumble, so everything comes out sounding very enigmatic.

 

[Valate_v1legacy]

I'm cool, but I can tell what you're thinking about with my creepy kill-o-vision power... I can imagine killing you with whatever you are thinking of, whenever I choose.

 

[Abedeus]

I don't care.

That's what makes me cool.
