    If you actually are too cool then it's a blessing. You are simply being yourself. Just sit back, observe the human folly surrounding you, and laugh.

    it is good to enjoy certain things in life

    but it is also good to know why you enjoy these certain things

    peace be with you

    I think actually I am stuck in a world that is half too cool for everything half not cool enough for shit.

    Shit I am not too cool for:
    -The Gap
    -Central air conditioning
    -Dancing
    -Lumidee
    -Photobooths
    -Lolipops

    Shit I am way too cool for
    -Confrontation in art aka crapola
    -Not looking presentable. Get an iron
    -Myspace

    I always feel like shit when everybody else is having a good time. This probably means I'm cool.

    I guess first you get so cool that it's a put off for others but then you reach this higher coolness and that's when you start to look at it all as if you watch your own children play with this generous smile on your face and that's when people will say you have charisma.

    My aim is to become so cool all these record dealers want to be liked by me and for this they will let me buy all these great records for discount prices (I'm almost there).

    Thinking you're too cool for shit (and then saying it) is not - as they say - a good look.

    "Rare?!? I had 50 copies of that back in 1989"

    "this thread is lame"

    etc etc.

    being too cool for everything = no contribution to anything.

    -Photobooths

    You are depriving yourself of one of life's great joys, Mr Schnip
    Sometime I will scan in my mom and dad's photobooth pics, there's a nice progression from them as a young midwestern couple to them as a nice midwestern couple with a baby(me) and then a hansome toddler(me older). Photos are nice, but photobooth pics are THAT MOMENT. I know they are trendy again, but I don't care. I wish I had one for my attic.

    Oh, and we'll just agree to disagree on being presentable. I hate ironing so I don't. Drives my wife nuts.

    obviously in this husslin world its a HUGE benefit to be too cool for school.

    think of all the money you save by not buying into all the hype on a near daily basis?

    i have a buddy who suffers from perenial hipster naivity.. namely the first record he hears is a hipster bar with a cute girl behind the bar he has to run out and buy the next day. the piles of shite Brians Jonestone Massacre, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club etc etc he has accumulated is staggering and its always followed by "uhhhh it sounded pretty good last night"

    I would disagree. Virulently. Coolness is a malaise upon our generation.

    Chris, I said I'm not too cool for them!

    Anyway, I posted this obviously a bit in jest, as my level of coolness is somewhat transcendent of labels. JK. Nah, I went to see this show last night that was just terrible but very "cool" and I was like man I am too cool for this too cool shit. It was all confrontational and art and meticulously dirty. I remember a long time ago on an MTV awards show Aerosmith won and went up to the podium wearing raggedy clothes and Steve Tyler said something akin to "You know, it takes a lot of money to look this poor" but probably without using the word poor. That's the kind of cool I am too cool for. I want some Egyptian cotton and white sneakers
