Oh, wait, I got it.....i knew if i thought hard enough i;d think of something. Perth will like this:

I'm currently reading the wheel of time series ( book4) and I'm enjoying it.

I play madden football, and put myself in as a wide out. I make the pro bowl every year. for the cowboys.

plus the one guilty pleasure that we all share: we have "virtual friends"

thank you

I would say that driving a station wagon makes me uncool, but station wagons are apparently making a comeback (Vibe/Matrix, Protege), so my coolness is unscathed.

I watch Spongebob Squarepants even when the kids aren't.

For me, it's the Fairly Odd Parents. And 99.9% of my wardrobe comes from Goodwill, does that make me more or less cool?

Isn't your station wagon an Escort?

yeah, well......i don;t actually SELL the cars. and they are primarily crappy american cars......some have german parts....but i'd think that would add to my coolness, not detract ( germans simply make better cars than we do...i mean would you rather drive a chrysler or a benz?)

as for firestarting, i think it depends on what kind of fire we're talking about.....

and an escort wagon is NOT a cool wagon. your coolness is indeed scathed.

I am not cool because of my addiction to the color aqua (yes, it is an addiction.)

I am not cool because of my inability to tolerate the people I work with.

I am not cool because I try hard to use words like "whom" and "who" correctly, but often fail.

Yeah, tell me about it. I bought my Escort wagon at about the same time my then-boss bought a Toyota Camry. She was dissing me because my station wagon was smaller than her sedan!

Oh dear that is, there's a whole social scene these days for recovering everquest addicts, very trendy I hear. OU though....

I'll add the fact I can brag that I started playing CounterStrike at beta2 before all the lamers got on board on my not-cool-list as well. Had gun-running back then, those were the days, we had to treck to the terrorist base without armour though the snow, both ways.

Well, thank God I don't have to worry about YOUR opinion!

Steve, don't believe the diss...wagons are so obnoxious that they're cool.

What about a Saturn Wagon? It's nothing special outside, but very nice inside. Leather, power everything, heated seats, etc.

That might make me uncool, but here are a few more:


I read Star Wars books.
I still play with lego (Well, mostly just sort them these days. Maintaining the collection for when mini-me graduates from duplo).
I watch Good Eats religiously, and think the hour long episode about salt may have been the very best ever.

The real question is did you record it to watch later...and if you did, can I borrow it?
