Poll question: Are you cool?
Are you cool, hip, with it, boss, gnarly, very NOW?

If you are when did you know it and what makes you think you are?
If you aren't when did you know it and what makes you think you aren't?

1. The opposite of cool
unless, of course, it's cool not to care whether or not you're cool.

2. I don't make the judgment
I let people around me make that judgment, I'm just myself you know? I don't try to be anything.

9. I'm somewhat cool (okay- maybe lukewarm) but used to be cooler.
Every year I suspect I am less cool than before.

12. People who post "are you cool?" polls and those who respond are not cool

15. My kids swear that these days there's such a thing as geek cool
But I'm not sure I believe it.

Even if there is, it probably involves leather trenchcoats and plenty of attitude.

Me, I'm just a geek, and proud of it.

32. Geek
Geek Chic. Sweater, glasses, kakis, hacker skills. Originaly attributed to the "31337", a band of german hackers. They dissapeared and "1337" is once again lame, but the basics are still around. It's cool to be a geek.

17. No, I'm OK.
But you could nudge up the temperature control a couple of degrees if you wanted.

27. I'm sorry, but a response like that precludes you from even
thinking you're cool.

By the way, did you know that under certain conditions it requires heating to freeze helium? It's the only element that behaves this way.

In case you couldn't tell, I'm hell and gone from cool.

30. dude, what an uncool reply
i didn't say i was cool.

i stated a property of a state of being.

leaving it up to the observer to decide IS the cool.

accepting IS the cool.
