Cool? Or just being a jerk.

  • Jun. 17th, 2008 at 11:16 PM

 I'm posting this for my friend.

She likes to drive around with her car window down with Classic Rock blasting on the radio.  She does this because she wants people to think she's 'cool'.  She's 50 years old.

Confess the things you do to make yourself look "COOL".

To be cool, all you have to do is be yourself. I blast Japanese music out of my car's radio. People always look at me like I'm nuts. :)

i think that driving round with music blasting out your car is decidedly uncool - it's just rude and in-your-face. That doesn't stop me doing it when my favourite music is on, however. I am rife with uncool...

I'm so cool I don't make out with band members, I don't sleep with them, I don't wait for five hours after a gig to meet them and I don't want them to sign any of my stuff. At least, I tell myself that's cool, I might just be missing out.

I don't do anything to make myself look cool. And people think I am anyway.

Couldn't tell you why.

When I meet new people I stay quiet and learn more things about them, and pretend we have those things in common later so they'll like me.

It's kind of pathetic actually.

Me too.

But in the end, I guess my life wanted some of those things in common also. It was almost good for me.

I do this too! I'll even go home and google whatever it is that they're interested in, so I look completely authentic. Thanks to this I've learned how to rebuild car engines, speak fairly fluent Spanish, snowboard and skateboard, and I know the history of most sub-sects of punk rock. So sometimes pretending to be interested in what other people like can be educational.

I like to play heavy metal music or hard rap loudly (not so loud you can hear it for miles, but loud enough that if I roll down my windows and you're standing at the intersection where I'm waiting on a red light, you'll be able to hear it) in an attempt to get people to do a double take - you usually don't expect to see a conservatively dressed tiny white girl like me listening to stuff like that, apparently.

Other things I do to look cool ... surround myself with friends and act like I don't have any cares in the world.

ahaha i love doing that. i know it's cheesey as fuck but people don't expect someone with this many face-holes to be blasting jay-z or snoop dogg or something either.

I honestly don't do anything to try and be cool. I'm pretty weird and out of my mind...and yet people say I'm awesome.

I don't get it...

That's cool because you're being yourself.

You don't find that too often these days...

ImageWear cool clothes. Clothes that no one else can pull off, and giving me the title of, "Gosh, she can pull off anything."

The trick is being yourself. That gives you the ultimate air of cool I think, coolness is purely confidence in yourself.

I tend to hang out with people who are younger or older than I because for some reason, I feel more confident with them then people my age and they say I'm cool because I have that confidence in myself. I avoid people who make me self-conscious. I can't decide if that's the right thing to do or not.

I converse politely with people I just cant stand.

Every now and then its nice to hang out with a crowd that loves to be seen with you, and you with them.

(Not that you actually want a strong friendship with them, though.)

I am a cocktail waitress at the biggest and best nightclub withing 150 miles. I pretend I know everyone and smile a lot.

I talk on my cell phone really loudly in public and act like I'm some kind of big shot.

I also go to restaurants and complain loudly to the waiter/waitress.

Oh, and I go to stores and clog up the aisles because I think I own the whole damn store.

Actually, that was really sarcastic. I hate people like that.

I don't really do much.

But my old friend does indo to fit in with some ~*cool kidz*~. Then she would always say how retarted she thought they were when she was with me and my other pals. About 5 months ago, everyone found out about how she was so double faced and ended up ditching her.

I wear my scars proudly...not because I think they are "cool" but because I think its cool that they tell a story of survival and recovery.
