List something Uncool about yourself

[Susang]

We all love to brag about how cool we are. What's lame about you?

I'll go first....I love Lifetime made-for-tv movies, "Mother, May I Sleep With Danger", being my all-time favorite. :blush:

[Dora]

1. Everything.

I am UNcool.

[Ohio Joe]

2. I alomst always wear...

hawaiian shirts.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

212. That's awesome!

I love hawaiian shirts. That's not lame. That's laid back cool!
Duckie

[taterguy]

3. I'm proud of my size 13 feet

[lizziegrace]

4. Me too

The only thing cool is my taste in classic rock and musicians. The rest is pretty average. :shrug:

[LynneSin]

5. One of the funniest DU threads every: Mother, May I ____________

:rofl:

[Susang]

9. If only every Lifetime movie could be as brilliant

Although "Crimes of Passion:She Woke Up Pregnant" comes pretty close! :thumbsup:

[CanuckAmok]

27. Starring Tori Spelling...

I worked on that. I think I might still have my crew gift, which was a ballcap with the name of the show on it. If I can find it, Susan, it's yours.

[Susang]

38. I would be eternally indebted

:loveya:

[blondeatlast]

94. You MUST post it. nt

[madeline_con]

137. I thought it was that wierd animal....

what was his name? He was inherited from an uncle... :think:

[XNASA]

6. The lamest, most uncool thing about me is......

It's impossible for me to answer a question like "What's lame about you?" without first googling 'lame + things'.

I have no original thoughts.

[THUNDER HANDS]

7. i like bowling

[Magrittes Pipe]

8. My friends suck.

x(

[Susang]

12. What a coincidence

Mine are assholes. :P

[Magrittes Pipe]

16. ...

:thumbsup:

[Shell Beau]

10. I like to dance and sing around my house.

While I am cleaning or whatever, alone or in front of my husband! :P

[laheina]

63. Doesn't everybody do that? nt

[khashka]

149. That's not lame!

That's cool.


I was cooking.... and started dancing. Last night. I thouht "you can either cook dinner or shake your bootie." Then I thought "Just watch me. I can do both!"


Khash.

[commander bunnypants]

11. I cry at cartoons

CB

[Sequoia]

82. Hey, me too!

When I was a kid around 5 years old a Casper cartoon was on where he had this little kit fox he played with. So cute, Casper would go through doors and the fox would bang his head, etc. One day the mean ole British in their red hunting outfits with white horses and those dogs chased the little fox to death and Casper cried and I did too, so much so my mom came out to see what was the matter. Well, just then the a little ghost fox floated out of the dead fox and he and Casper played forever.

Saw an animated movie (yep, a cartoon) some years back about a brother and little sister living in a cave in Japan after THE BOMB was dropped. The brother was always looking for food and would give most of it to his sister. Sometimes he couldn't find anything. One day he found some food and was running happily toward the cave to give it to his little sister but she took one bite and died in the end. Cry, rivers flowing. My husband ran in to see why and I just blubbered. No ghost here.

[ThomCat]

13. I'm 17 years older than my sister.

She's convinced that I'm very uncool.

[laheina]

65. I'm 17 years older than my brother.

He also thinks that I am very uncool, but also seems to think that I know everything. :)

[ThomCat]

160. Funny, same here.

My sister says I'm the smartest, most knowledgable person she's ever know who is always wrong about everything. :P

(I'm the only liberal in the family.)

[Fleshdancer]

14. I'm paying money to go to an 80's Madonna sing-a-long this Thursday

and I'm not ashamed. :D

[blondeatlast]

95. Need some skinny black rubber bracelets? I can provide.

And--I think I just revealed a personal uncoolness.

[Fleshdancer]

101. rad! now do you have any lace gloves with the fingers cut off?

I want to get into the groove :rofl:

[blondeatlast]

112. No, but I am due for a root job...

:rofl:

[arwalden]

15. I like Abba. I like to camp. I sunburn easily.

I shop at thrift stores.

[Magrittes Pipe]

18. You accidentally added the word "to" to your statement "I like camp."

Just lookin' out for ya, big guy.

[arwalden]

21. Oh... I Love You.

Thanks!

Actually, both are true.

[mvd]

150. Me, too!

Abba is one of the best artists in fact.

In music overall, music snobbery is just not my thing. Not that I can't be picky - and some of my choices are hip - but music snobbery is a pet peeve of mine.

[mvd]

158. Adding that..

I have posted a poll before that asked people to describe my music taste. Some said that I have snobby characteristics - but I don't limit myself like real snobs.

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

210. I like ABBA too.. especially the Fernando song n/t

[NewWaveChick1981]

178. I sunburn easily too.

I don't like Abba, I hate to camp, and I only go to thrift stores when I have to, but I sunburn so badly I have to wear SPF 50+. Actually, it's kept me from having sun-damaged skin, and on my last checkup, my doctor said I have the skin of a 30-year-old---I'm 42/going on 43. :) I guess our uncool curse can be somewhat of a blessing after all.

[mvd]

187. So do I

But liking Abba, as I do, is cool IMO - and sunburning easily is no big uncoolness either IMO.

[azmouse]

17. I don't wear low cut jeans.

I love to crochet doilies.
And I know there must be a bunch more but I'm so uncool that I don't even know what's cool.

[madeline_con]

138. Neither do I.

Because I realize they're made for a certain type of figure... which I no longer have. :(

[CaliforniaPeggy]

19. What's uncool about me?

I like to control things......

I also tend to interrupt when others are talking.......

:shrug:

[lizziegrace]

20. oh...

I quilt.

:blush:

[miss_american_pie]

62. That's okay

I embroider. ;)

[YellowRubberDuckie]

213. That's ok...

So does my Nanny. :evilgrin:

[AngryAmish]

22. I watch professional wrestling

[slide to the left]

195. ME TOO

and I am a girl? RVD is by far my fave. My husband has a blog about wrestling.

Oh, how am I uncool? I like wrestling. I love to garden. I have -13 vision which means my glasses are really almost an inch thick.

[AngryAmish]

201. RVD f'n rocks

ever hear of the Sandman?

[slide to the left]

206. yeah

You should really check out www.prowrestlingblog.com

[CBHagman]

23. I'm very liberal but extremely old-fashioned.

I think it's slovenly for people to go to the office wearing flip-flops -- unless they had a foot injury, for example, and can't wear shoes. I even use the word "slovenly."

And whoever you are, male or female, even if you do household repairs, I don't want to see your underwear or yards of naked skin while you're on the job. Put on some clothes and tuck in your shirts, and save the tattoo display for Saturday or quitting time.

I believe adults should agree on how to address each other, not automatically use the first name. I'm pleased to report medical professionals appear to do this.

And the response to "Thank you" is not "No problem." It's "You're welcome."

LOVE your inner curmudgeon!

[njdemocrat106]

41. I agree on addressing each other

For the most part, I don't go by my first name (because I don't like it :) ), but I dislike the common nickname for it even more, and throughout school and even recently when I had to renew my driver's license, people just automatically shortened my first name without even asking me what I prefer to be called.

[Le Taz Hot]

100. LOVE your inner curmudgeon!

:rofl: Oh, I am SO gonna steal that one!

[CBHagman]

186. Glad you liked it.

A friend gave me the book below one Christmas. Great inspiration!

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

204. I can't help saying "no problem"

I've even tried to break myself of it, but I always revert back to it. I can use "you're welcome" in more formal situations and I have a decent vocabulary. "No problem" just sticks with me. I also say "dude" relatively often and I apply it to all genders.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

214. I think it's disrespectful to wear flip flops to church.

I'm catholic. I nearly lost my crap one morning when the tourists entered the church wearing flip flops last summer. It just hit me wrong. I totally agree with you. I think there are appropriate places for Flip flops....and Work and church are not those places...
Duckie

[CBHagman]

218. Duckie, there is so much of that going around.

I remember seeing people wearing shorts and tank tops to Mass at the Newman Center (this is back in the '80s). Nowadays, almost anything goes (Cue Cole Porter).

The biggest shock was the lower back tattoo I glimpsed on a woman rising from the pew to go to communion. As she stood up, there was her lower back, bold as brass.

And using expressions like "bold as brass" is also pretty uncool of me. :blush:

[tigereye]

24. too many books and papers

I need an organizer or somethin'

:cry:

[swag]

147. A bonfire?

[tigereye]

153. he he he

my parents had a "burn-can" in the back yard when I was a kid, but it ain't allowed where we live.

:)

I just need more and bigger file cabinets!

[swag]

155. That's so funny.

Once long ago a workmate of Aitch sneared to Aitch, "you're the only person I know who could get excited about a file cabinet."

But now we know that you too get excited about file cabinets.

They are exciting.

[tigereye]

159. it's mainly cuz I have too much paper

I wouldn't say I was in ecstasy over 'em per se. I do get excited about bookcases - and a place to put more books!

But organization is a good thing. :hi:

[LSK]

25. I DONT have a bigscreen TV

I am not worthy!

[Ravenseye]

26. I'm a Dungeon Master

We play every week or two. I've been DM'ing for a few years now.

[ThomCat]

28. Actually, that is cool.

:)

[Ravenseye]

33. Well I think so

The general population though tends to think of D&D players as particularly pathetic people....

ALITTERATION!

[Book Lover]

37. Excuse me, that makes you SUPERCOOL! (nm)

[TK421]

90. I'm playing an Occult Slayer in our campaign now....Occult Slayers rock!!!

:headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang:

[YellowRubberDuckie]

215. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.....

[LaraMN]

29. Oh...let's see.....

Last night in speech class, I spilled water all over myself while I was drinking. At least it was after I'd done my speech.

I also laugh at all kinds of things in public that other people aren't laughing about.

[Patiod]

30. I don't have cable -- broadcast only to my 1970's TV

I have phillies pins on my cowboy hat that I wear to the games
I'm a klutz
My SO's name is Ralph (which is almost retrocool, though)
My SO dragged me to see Eric Idol, and made me dress as a Mountie (not even retro cool)

I don't think I can top that latter one in terms of uncool, so I'll stop there

[dolo amber]

31. I love Supertramp

:D

[Magrittes Pipe]

40. My penis is an acorn that will never grow into an oak.

:cry:

[amitten]

44. Oh, my God.

Sorry.

[Magrittes Pipe]

46. Damn.

I coulda sworn I typed "dork."

[Oeditpus Rex]

32. I'm Mr. Language Nazi Person

And I think "South Park" is utterly inane.

[reyd reid reed]

42. Y'know

I've never watched a single episode of South Park. Kids watch it when I'm not home but I never have.

'Course I've never watched American Idol, The Bachelor, or any of that stuff either. Maybe I shoulda listed that.

And...if being a grammar nazi is uncool, then that would make it hot, right? So...

[harlinchi]

34. I'm a 45-year old Black man who is as clumsy as a 14-year old,...

...can't jump or play basketball (my 9-year old son's opinion notwithstanding) and can't dance. My wife keeps trying to get me to dance at various events but I must have had a rhythm-ectomy or something! I dress uncool. My son has actually asked me, ME, a child of the seventies, "Dad, have you EVER been cool?"

[arwalden]

49. Well... Don't Worry About Minor Things Like That. It Could Be Worse...

... at least you've got a big cock. :hi: :patriot:

[imperialismispasse]

64. *choke*

Best comment of the day. :thumbsup:

[ceile]

71. holy s***!

unbelievable.....:rofl:

[laheina]

111. Geez.

This thread brought out the prevert silliness. :P

[harlinchi]

169. "Uhh, yeah! That's, uhh, right! Good thing", he said with a...

...nervous little grin, wishing at least one other stereotype was true.

[johnnie]

35. Pfffft

Yeah, right. Like there is something uncool about me.

[dolo amber]

36. This, of course, is the correct answer

:thumbsup:

[reyd reid reed]

39. I'm a bookworm...I'll read damn near anything

Including, but not limited to cereal boxes and *gasp* laundry labels. I've also been know to commit the sin of foofishness from time to time. And when someone gets me going, I can ramble on endlessly and inanely without saying anything at all.

And don't get me started on language and spelling.

[MiniMandaRuth]

43. I... um....

Secretly think that Ashlee Simpson's song 'Pieces of Me' song is really good

[TheProphetess]

225. On a Monday, I am waiting, by Tuesday, I am fading....

Nothing wrong with that. :shrug:

Ok, here's my big confession. It hurts me to admit this, but when I was young and didn't know any better, I went to see New Kids on the Block perform live with Dino. And it was a good concert.
:hide:

[amitten]

45. I'm on this damn board all the time. n/t

[CanuckAmok]

47. I have braces.

And I am hopelessly unfashionable.

[Susang]

48. I had no idea you had braces!

;-)

[ZombieNixon]

50. I propagated "herk."

Nuff sed.

[Magrittes Pipe]

53. You should be castrated.

x(

[ZombieNixon]

59. Meep!

:scared:

[Orsino]

51. I *still* play Dungeons & Dragons, in my freakin' forties.

But so does my wife.

[TK421]

91. I'm playing two different campaigns now...one, I'm a Ranger/Occult Slayer

and the other, I'm an eleventh level druid...I'm loving the druid!

[Orsino]

98. NERDS!!!

[NewJeffCT]

168. I'm 39 and play when I get the chance

My wife has no interest in playing D&D, however.

[Bassic]

192. I'm getting closer to 30

and I don't plan on stopping any time soon. I also play Warhammer.

I am a geek. :hi:

[swag]

52. I buy government bonds and investment grade corporate bonds.

[XemaSab]

55. You started the Kudzu thread

That's enough uncoolness for one lifetime.

[swag]

57. You topped even that: you used the popcorn smiley.

[XemaSab]

66. What are you trying to say?

[swag]

67. I applaud your achievement.

[XemaSab]

70. And I in turn salute your accomplishment

:patriot:

But it's still sorta dorky... the longest running lounge thread ever, and it's kudzu???

But I guess that is the charm of the kudzu.

[swag]

73. Is it the longest running lounge thread ever?

Gee. I wonder if it really is.

Still I think the Fuzzyslippers movie chain thread has a much higher post count. A lot of threads have higher post counts.

Somebody said that NSMA had some "I lost my keys" thread in Ask the Administrators that was the longest running thing ever. I'm sad I missed that thread. It probably only died because the Administrators killed the Ask the Administrators room. I don't know. I never read that room.

Anyway, you just used the salute smiley, and that's pretty fuckin' dorky. Again, I applaud your achievement. You just don't stop!

[XemaSab]

74. It's currently #2 in the top 10 highest post counts for the lounge

The movie thread is #1, and there are three picture threads in there as well as the hippie thread.

It's got STAMINA. It can GO THE DISTANCE.

[swag]

75. I bet this thread can beat the kudzu thread on both post-count and

endurance.

There's so much to confess.

[XemaSab]

77. I might be willing to wager post count

But never endurance.

The kudzu is indestructable.

[terrya]

54. I still laugh at the Three Stooges

I'll see some of their stuff on television and I'll still laugh. Hell, they're decades old...that's pretty lame.

[GalleryGod]

80. That's Cool.

[maveric]

223. Is that in Philly?

IINM, Louis Feinburg was born in South Philly.

[SOteric]

56. I go to bed at 8:00 p.m. pretty much every night.

:hi:

[Bunny]

58. What's uncool about me?

I've read this entire thread, and I don't think I saw a single thing that I'd consider uncool. So, does that make me so uncool that I'm actually cool? :shrug:

[Magrittes Pipe]

60. This man is your senator:

[Bunny]

68. Yes, and I'm starting to like him. You know, in a tingly kind of way.

J'accuse, hedges! :grr:

[BreweryYardRat]

61. A couple...

Crappy social skills.

Play Warhammer.

[laheina]

69. Do you paint your own pieces? nt

[BreweryYardRat]

Got a complete color scheme overhaul planned for my VC this summer.

[ceile]

72. I think "Roseanne" was the coolest show ever...

yes, I'm a big dork.....

[bigwillq]

176. Me too!

:hi: :pals:

[laheina]

76. I'm a bibliophile.

I never watch tv, so I need my son to work the tivo.

When driving, I navigate via landmarks and I have to think to match the street names to places.

[Magrittes Pipe]

102. You have sex with Bibles?

That's fucking sick.

[laheina]

109. Bad, bad, bad...

:spank:

Of course not! I just get a little nutso over books.

[haydukelives]

78. I always drive the speed limit

or a little less

[GalleryGod]

79. I Love Ballroom Dancing...

and almost any Broadway Musical......

[Fleshdancer]

81. ballroom dancing is cool

I love it! :hi:

[blondeatlast]

96. That's utterly cool--wish I knew how myself! nt

[Midlodemocrat]

83. There is nothing uncool about me.

I am the coolest of the cool. I am so cool I don't if I'm not cool, or even dorky because my super coolness compensates for my exteme lack of caring about whether or not I am cool.

[RandomKoolzip]

84. I'm a Deadhead.

[ET Awful]

170. Ummm, how exactly is that "uncool"

:shrug:

I consider that to be a sign of incredible coolness :P

[djeseru]

85. I was talking about this subject with someone...

...just a few minutes ago. About how I was such a square for raising caterpillars and photographing their progression and the results. :blush:

[GOPisEvil]

105. It's hip to be square.

:hug:

[djeseru]

108. Well, considering I turned pro recently.

I made the right decision, didn't I?

Hey sweetie. :hug:

[GOPisEvil]

110. Definitely!

Hi, hon! :hug:

[djeseru]

116. Whew, I'm relieved.

Unless it makes you uncool for hanging out with such a nerd. ;)

[GOPisEvil]

118. I'm a nerd myself, so I kinda want to be uncool right?

;)

[djeseru]

119. I guess so.

I should try going without the labels. But, hey, if you don't mind hanging out with a square... :pals:

[GOPisEvil]

121. Mind? I rather enjoy it.

*cues up Huey Lewis and the News* :P

:hug:

[djeseru]

122. As long as it's...

...not the got-damn "Safety Dance." x(

[GOPisEvil]

124. That was Men Wthout Hats.

This is a MWH-free zone.

[djeseru]

125. *smacks forehead*

Right, I forgot you had your place re-zoned. :P

[GOPisEvil]

126. Don't get me started on the bribes I had to pay for that!

x(

[djeseru]

127. Ah, the lengths we go to...

Wait, let me stop laughing here...

:rofl:

[GOPisEvil]

128. ...

:)

[0007]

144. Love you're moon & child shot.......way too cool!

[GalleryGod]

179. " Hon" ? You're definitely spending too much time in the

Pa-NJ-DE Area, Dave!

[LostinVA]

86. I wear sweater vests -- hey, I work in a library -- they're practical

[TK421]

87. People are always telling me that I have a perpetual pissed-off look on

my face...but I don't see it...and I wish it would go away because I'm not pissed off all the time, I just want to kill someone!:shrug:

[MissMillie]

88. I'm celibate

Not for any particular reason... just am.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

89. Everything.

[HEyHEY]

92. My second toe is longer than my big toe

[TK421]

93. So is mine....is that supposed to be rare?

[sarge43]

171. Yup

Another rare and maybe uncool: Women with ring fingers longer than the index.

[cfield]

97. My husband and I still high-five each other,

even in public, when we say something the other one's been thinking or if we say the same thing at the same time. Just this weekend we were eating dinner with some friends and one of them said something that caused us both to yell 'oh my ga-ed' like John Travolta in the South Park episode about Tom Cruise in the closet. That was a high-five moment to top all high-five moments! What made it even better was the fact that no one around us had a clue what was so funny about it.

I hope we never grow up!

[GOPFighter]

188. That;'s not uncool

It's neat in fact.

[vikegirl]

99. I suffer from trichotillomania.

I'm surprised I have any eyebrows left.

[Sugar Smack]

103. I have 4 field guides to insects

because I'm secretly fascinated by them and I think I have the makings of a great entomologist. :blush:

[mdmc]

106. i know a great girl that has cockroaches as pets

[mdmc]

104. I'm a spoiled brat

:cry:

[no name no slogan]

107. I own every Emerson, Lake & Palmer album on vinyl

even "Love Beach".

[swag]

145. That's so wanky.

No wonder you seem to me a god.

Now tell me that Tarkus is what you truly revere.

[no name no slogan]

191. Yes, with the double-gatefold sleeve!

I actually own the US version on Cotillion records (Atlantic's Prog label) from the early 70s. "Tarkus" is still my favorite of theirs and their best by far. The rest of it is pretty wanky X(

I have no defense for owning "Love Beach". I plead temporary insanity.

Hmm, it apppears Keith Emerson enjoyed carrying his lunch around in his trousers back then.

[Initech]

113. I live in my parent's house.

It's seriously starting to drive me crazy though!

[Scout1071]

114. I'm a corporate sell-out.

And an accomplished suck-up.

[Ava]

117. I'm a homeschool nerd!

:P

[TrogL]

120. I can't remember the last time I bathed or showered

It's got to be at least two weeks.

[Scout1071]

123. Dude.....that is uncool. nt

[LanternWaste]

129. Doctor! This man needs 10cc's of cool, stat!

I have three seasons of "thirtysomething" on vhs and watch them...

I've got a major crsh on a married girl I work with...

When my single friends called me last Fri night to go out to the bars, I lied so stay home and watch the last five episodes of Lost on DVD.

On my way to work, I listen to DCI (marching band) music.

Some friends and I play Neverwinter Nights (a dungeon and dragons-like game) on the computer every third Saturday night... I bailed on date so I wouldn't miss one session a few months back.

Doctor! This man needs 10cc's of cool, stat!

[long_green]

130. I've never watched one episode of...

American Idol, Survivor, The Apprentice, The Bachelorette (or -or), or any other reality show.
I've never seen Caddyshack, either.

Oh, wait. Those are reasons why I am cool.

uncool? I love minor league baseball.

[Hugin]

131. I... am... a... DORK!

There, I said it.

[windy252]

132. I've been single since I was 6 in real life.

:cry:

[rockymountaindem]

133. Those movies are so predictable

Someone always ends up in prison, only to be vindicated later.

Why is that? Are they trying to tell us something?

[salin]

134. I have become a member of the Prius cult.

Prius owners get pretty geeky - noticing all other Priuses on the road. Comparing the five minute split MPGs. And other ways of being a bit... odd. So while I think driving a Prius is cool - I think many Prius drivers (self-included) get so into it that we become a bit annoying/obnoxious. just.can't.help.myself.

[Hugin]

135. It's similar to "The Mac Thing"...

*nods*

[Redstone]

136. I'm sorry, I can't. I tried, but couldn't think of anything.

Redstone

[Random_Australian]

139. I'm a really good and honest person.

That is so not cool.

[malmapus]

140. I drive a Camero and am keeping Grunge alive and well

There I said it

[mvd]

141. I like some teen pop music

Probably not cool here at DU, but I don't mind.

[flamingyouth]

142. Geez... where to start

I'm a huge fan of figure skating and silent films, and when I say "huge fan" I mean I can recite facts and milestones, etc. I used to read the almanac from cover to cover as a kid. I especially loved the section on disasters.

[swag]

146. You probably do not share my regard for Surya Bonaly, do you?

Go ahead. I can take it.

[flamingyouth]

157. I love Surya!

Her backflips - pure brilliance! :thumbsup:

[khashka]

143. You and me should hang out, susang

My ex and I would watch Lifetime. Every time they said "Lifetime. Television for women." We'd yell "And gay men!"

Khash.

[lumberingbear]

148. I like....

I like....

-cozy mysteries
:hide:

[TimeChaser]

151. I am uncool personified

B-)

[XemaSab]

198. That's garbage!

You study fish parasites.... that alone gets you into all the clubs... ;)

[Briarius]

152. I know morse code

I play Everquest and run linux. I love building my own electronics. yea, I'm a total geek :D

[Dinger]

154. I Like Neil Diamond Music

[mwdem]

156. I know what a merkin is..

and I don't remember how I came upon that knowledge.

[Susang]

161. I know what a merkin is too

And I remember when and where I was when I found out that information. :D

[ploppy]

221. That makes

three of us! :-)

[eauclaireliberal]

162. I watch Monty Python's Flying Circus

almost EVERY NIGHT (at bedtime) since my beloved beautiful wife bought me that DVD set for Xmas in '04.


Speaking of which...

[Zookeeper]

163. I read mostly non-fiction books...

about politics, art or how to build things.

I do woodworking and restore old hand planes.

I'm not just uncool, I'm geeky.

[Random_Australian]

232. One step up: I read non-fiction: Science Textbooks.

A few years above the level I study was the usual, but now in uni it's too expensive to buy 3rd year stuff. I much prefered reading 1st year university stuff in yr 10.

*sigh* good times, good times.

[u4ic]

164. I like studying

thoroughbred (racehorse) pedigrees...:shrug:

[deadparrot]

165. I love trashy Harlequin romances.

:blush:

[seaglass]

166. I like thinking about weird stuff like this:

"The Himalayas it is said, are made of solid granite. Once every thousand years a bird flies over them with a silk scarf in its beak, brushing their peaks with its scarf. When by this process the Himalayas have been worn away, one day of a cosmic cycle will have elapsed."


-Huston Smith "The World's Relgions"

If you didn't roll your eyes when you read this, you are uncool like me.:-)

[enigmatic]

167. I love watching wrestling and am obsessed with Curling

Hell, just about everything about me is "uncool" w/ the terminally hip I guess, and that's ok by me..

[sarge43]

172. So very uncool

Drive a grey Saturn hatchback
Have absolutely no idea who's currently who in pop music
Dressed almost exclusively by Lands End
None of my shoes have heels over an inch high
Can blazon a coat of arms
My major was English Lit
Star Trek nerd and believe Brannon and Braga violated the canon

I could go on and on, but I believe I've established my qualifications for the uncool kid's table.

[Deep13]

173. I drive the speed limit.

[hyphenate]

174. I could win an award

for the worst housekeeper in the country. Is that uncool enough?

If that doesn't do it, how about the fact that it takes spending money for me to feel good (retail therapy)?

[sarge43]

183. "Is that uncool enough?"

No, it means you're liberated. Remember, after fours years, the dust won't get any deeper.

[NewWaveChick1981]

175. I'm going out on a limb here, but there are two things about me...

...that are pretty damn uncool. First, I'm a science fiction geek. I used to get a lot of weird looks that said, "YOU'RE a science fiction geek???", like I needed to look nerdy and wear black horn-rimmed glasses held together by tape or something. Not so! "Regular" people can be SF fans too! :) In fact, I met my first love at my first SF convention in 1980.

Second, if there is any chance I can fall down or trip and look idiotic, it will happen. My husband calls me Grace (like calling a bald guy Curly). :P

[Iniquitous Bunny]

177. I rarely watch TV.

A lot of people I know think I'm completely uncool because of this. I think it makes me more cool though. Remember kids: TV rots your brain.

[sarge43]

180. Especially if you

watch the Weather Channel, know the names of the 'meteorologists' and comment on their fashion sense. If you do, you're not uncool; you're Cliff Claven.

[Puglover]

181. I proudly like Velveeta in grilled cheese. n/t

[Random_Australian]

231. I'm not sure what Velveeta is, but it isn't worse than cucumber and

vegemite.

[Ellen Forradalom]

182. My idea of a hoppin' Friday night party

is a chat room with twelve other Perl hackers.

[Susang]

185. Hey, you!

What's up? :hi:

[Ellen Forradalom]

208. Not much, just livin' la vida loca

on the California coast. I injured my back from too much hiking and surfing. Don't you feel sorry for me? :-)

[skyblue]

184. I have no sense of style.

I look really bad in red, but I will wear it. I have maybe 3 pairs of shoes. I hate dressing up--I just don't get it. I also don't know how to draw.

[DS1]

189. I've gone from marvelling my car's top speed - 145, to its fuel efficiency

31 mpg out of the last tank.

145 is as far as I was going to push my luck on 495, anyway :scared:

[judaspriestess]

190. I like to eat cheezits with my retainer on n/t

[RetroLounge]

193. Well, I don't think it's uncool, but half the world does

I like Model Railroading...



RL

[Arugula Latte]

194. I like to watch "America's Funniest Videos"

:blush:

[MsUSA]

199. Me too, but I don't like the guy and girl team, I like Tom

Bergerron(sp) so much better. We watch the repeats not the prime time show.

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

211. Yeah, that show is kind of lame. n/t

[Guy Fawkes]

196. I'm NOT a dungeon master...

I'm so lame. I don't even have a set of dice. (Too expensive; besides, everyone has extras)

[Sisaruus]

197. I check the BookTV schedule before I make weekend plans

But I like being uncool.

[Susang]

200. I can't believe this thread is still going!

My threads never generate more than 30 replies, tops! :wow:

[Random_Australian]

230. That is uncool. Audacious of you to share it. n/t

[Wetzelbill]

202. I squirmed out of a date because I wanted to watch pro wrestling

bear in mind this was two weeks ago, I'm not exactly beating women off with a stick, she's a helluva woman, this was on a friday night and I am 31 years old. :) Lame!!!!!!

[NNadir]

217. Ow! Bill!

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

203. Yes, I too, watch Lifetime made-for-tv movies.

My sister and I even text-message each other about them, if one of us is watching a good one and thinks the other should get warned about it. We're different as night & day, but we've laid in bed watching Lifetime movies together too many times to declare us cool.

On edit: We also watch the movies on WE (Women's Entertainment) and LOGO, the gay channel. My sister's straight but she said it best with, "I don't care if the characters are gay or straight. I just want to watch some cheesy drama." Logo is good for that when they show old made-for-tv movies about AIDS and such.

[Vektor]

205. I have horrible road rage.

And an SUV.

:hide:

[kid a]

207. I say 50 cents, not fiddycent

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

209. I really like the Wiggles...n/t

[YellowRubberDuckie]

216. I have such bad road rage...

My nephew's first words are going to be "You bastard," or "You fucking idiot!" It's not looking good for him. :evilgrin:
Duckie

[izzybeans]

219. I can only read non-fiction books and be interested.

Apparently its uncool to have children at my age as well.

[Brigid]

220. I'm probably one of the last . . .

What's uncool about me? I don't have a cell phone. I just have no need for one.

[blitzen]

222. I'm a 45 year-old who sometimes watches "American Idol"

and finds it sort of amusing

[TheProphetess]

224. Did you see the SNL skit

where Molly Shannnon, playing Mary Catherine Gallagher (the Catholic school girl who liked to stick her hands under her armpits and smell them when she'd get nervous) did a quote from that movie?

My good friend, Cathy, and I have been known to quote a piece of that skit:
"My feelings can best be expressed in a monologue from the made-for-TV-movie, "Mother, May I Sleep with Danger" starring Tori Spelling...."

Oh.My.God. I cracked up when I saw your post! :spray:

[Susang]

226. That's scary!

:scared:

The title of that movie just cracks me up; I have to watch it every time it's on. The obsession started with just my sister and myself, but now my husband has joined the cult of MMISWD.

Hey, how're you feeling? Any better?

[TheProphetess]

229. Yeah, I'm on better meds but I am scared to death of the pain coming back

Every step I take (which are literally baby steps, by the way), I pray will not lead to a muscle spasm. When I do get muscle spasms now, they are much less intense, but they still scare me. I cannot go back to the pain I had on Tuesday. I just can't.
I will be having a long conversation with my neurosurgeon tomorrow at my follow-up visit. I have written out a list of things that I'm concerned about and things that I'm angry about (in particular his receptionist who talks to me like I'm 2-years-old).

Thanks for asking, though. Your advice really has been helpful. Now I'm off to bed once again. :hi:

[Susang]

233. I know just how you feel

I've got another consult with my surgeon on Tuesday. We're discussing the possibility of further surgeries. Like you, I'm terrified of having to deal with that kind of pain returning. But I really don't want to be on painkillers forever, and the epidurals only seem to work for a couple of weeks at most.

Anyway, hope you kicked ass at your appointment. You deserve better treatment than they've been providing you. :hug:

[Jamastiene]

227. I think it is against the rules to mention, but let's just say that

I can clear out a room at times when I have eaten certain things. :blush:

[Extend a Hand]

228. I like to watch the weather channel n/t
