Being cool is normally subjective. But there are some things that unequivocally make you uncool. We're not saying we're cool, we're just saying if you own any of these items, you're not.
10. iPhone
WHY YOU THINK YOU'RE COOL: You can access e-mails, high speed internet, and watch videos, all on your phone. Because really, normal people around you are so f*&king boring you can hardly bear actually interacting with them.
WHY YOU'RE NOT COOL: I’ve done some research and iPhone is actually a Japanese word that means “something that’s not able to be put in a pocket and instead must be carried in your hand at all times or set on the table in front of you so that any one around you can see it.” This may sound shocking, but when someone remarks how hot it is, they’re not asking you to look up the temperature in both farenheit and celcius, or show them a clip on a 3 inch screen from "An Inconvenient Truth" in an effort to relate this heat to global warming.
9.Ironic Belt Buckles
WHY YOU THINK YOU'RE COOL: Now you can show up in bars and point at your belt buckle and tell people that you are a "Rodeo Champion" or a "Pac Man" or a "Truck Driver" or a "Jack Daniels." And while they will know that you are actually none of these things, you think you're being playful and a little bit mysterious. You also think this tactic will help you pick up women.
WHY YOU'RE NOT COOL: You're the same person who has ironic facial hair (mustache), drinks ironic beer (PBR) and wears ironic T-shirts (Lucky Charms). You spend your entire life trying to look as shitty and poor as possible while, chances are, you have rich parents or a job for an accounting firm that pays you over $60,000. In four years you will be a Republican living in the suburbs and complaining about your 401k over wine spritzers at dinner parties.
8. Blue Tooth Headset
WHY YOU THINK YOU'RE COOL: All the other losers have to use their hands when they talk on the phone. Not you! You can talk on your phone and at the same time safely give some loser the finger because they’re only driving the speed limit. It’s Tuesday, doesn’t this asshole know you have your jujitsu class at 24 hour fitness to go to?
WHY YOU'RE NOT COOL: I don’t give a shit if you’re talking to someone on the other end, when you’re in a Subway Sandwiches and they’re trying to take your order while you say “Listen, you give me that paperwork for the Johnson account by tomorrow or it’s your ass. No mayo. I said no Mayo! Yeah, that’s right, Johnson account on my desk! No pepperoncinis!” it’s pretty god damn confusing and asshole-ish to everyone trying to deal with you. Answer your phone when you have time to hold it in your hand. The only people that should be wearing blue tooth wireless headsets are military field generals and the people that work the day after thanksgiving sale at Old Navy.
7. Quoting Austin Powers/Borat/Old School
WHY YOU THINK YOU'RE COOL: Put on your earmuffs because that woman has a vageen that hangs like sleeve of wizard. Yeah, baby! Those movies are HILARIOUS, thus if you can quote them, by default you're hilarious too!
WHY YOU'RE NOT COOL: We all enjoy quoting our favorite movies, but let's put these three to bed. Not only did I have every last bit of dialogue to the Borat movie screamed in my face three months before it came out, but let's face it, Austin Powers wasn't funny 10 years ago. And I still have to hear people telling me that "circus folk smell vaguely of cabbage." On top of it, everyone murders the accents. Whenever I hear some asshole in a bar trying doing his version of Borat, somehow he sounds like a tongueless Canadian with a sock in his mouth. This has to stop or I am going to skip the earmuffs and go directly to cutting my ears off.
6. PT Cruiser
WHY YOU THINK YOU'RE COOL: It’s like a car from back in the thirties! It’s sleek design and throw back look allows everyone tailgating in the parking lot at the Dave Matthews concert know that you’re a free spirit who is all about having good times!
WHY YOU'RE NOT COOL: If you’ve ever wondered what a gay transformer would turn in to, wonder no more. Not only do they call a retarded amount of attention to themselves on the road, when you drive them you look like a soccer mom whose transporting alcohol during the prohibition era.
5. Tricked Out Bicycles
WHY YOU THINK YOU'RE COOL: I honestly have no idea.
WHY YOU'RE NOT COOL: Instead of looking like some hipper, younger version of a real biker (who actually is cool), you just look like some 8th-grader who blew his allowance on sparklers for his tricycle. With its weirdly-bent handlebars and wacky forks, your "cruiser" looks like the elephant man of bikes. Plus, these things are clearly uncomfortable to ride. I love watching some tattooed douchebag try to look laid back and cool after he had to dislocate both of his shoulders just to reach the handlebars. Not to mention, you could've gotten a friggin' car for what you paid for this piece of crap. Dumbass.
4. Fidel Castro Hats
WHY YOU THINK YOU'RE COOL: Wearing a Fidel Castro hat let’s the world know that you’re different and that you have thoughts and ideas that make you significantly more special and free thinking than those who wear traditional baseball hats.
WHY YOU'RE NOT COOL: You know why the Communist Cuba Military can get away with wearing them? Because they carry automatic weapons. You most likely carry a compilation book of Charles Bukowski poems. The tiny bill and camoflauged coloring make you look like a retarded son of a army ranger who had a pair of scissors and access to his father’s closet. I realize you want to tell the world you’re a non-comformist, but unfortunately being a non-conformist means you’re conforming to non-conformism. You might want to ponder that at that next record release party for a band no one’s heard of that you’re pretending to like.
3. Guitar Hero
WHY YOU THINK YOU'RE COOL: Dude, this game totally rocks! I love this song! Hell yes! Welcome to the Jungle, baby! You're gonna diiiiiiiiiiiee!
WHY YOU'RE NOT COOL: Despite what the commercial says, you do not suddenly turn into Slash when you're playing this video game. You are playing a child-sized guitar that doesn't even have strings. It has multi-colored buttons and an on/off button. And playing this video game does not mean you can play the guitar now. If I have to hear someone say "I can totally play 'Anarchy in the UK'" but actually mean "I can totally play 'Anarchy in the UK' on Guitar Hero," I am going to take a pee inside the nearest PS3.
2. Longboard Skateboards
WHY YOU THINK YOU'RE COOL: You’re just a laid back dude who likes to cruise the streets and board walks but still has the credibility shared by those who ride smaller, more dangerous boards.
WHY YOU'RE NOT COOL: You’re basically one step away from being the little kid at Costco who jumps on the big grocery cart when his mother isn’t looking. Whereas if a normal skateboarder falls he injures himself, you’re traveling at speeds that allow those walking to pass you, and if you fall, you’ll most likely fall on the board and continue traveling. Hence, you’re basically riding a skateboard designed for those without any coordination or athletic ability. It’d be like playing baseball, except replacing the ball with a giant stuffed animal.
1. Funny Ringtones
WHY YOU THINK YOU'RE COOL: A ring tone is a great way to give strangers and coworkers a little peek into your personal life and let them know that your grasp of pop culture is vast. You're pretty sure that having a silly quote from Monty Python or the Transformers theme song as your ringtone will make those around you realize that you are a the guy everyone else wants to be. There is definitely more to you than meets the eye.
WHY YOU'RE NOT COOL: Having your phone play Right Said Fred's "I'm Too Sexy" just makes you look (and sound) like an asshole. And the fact that you let it "ring" 15 times while you stand there and look around for reactions to your hilarious little joke not only reeks of desperation, but it makes everyone around you want to cram that phone up your taint. Put it on vibrate like every other normal person and keep your witticisms between you and your collection of Star Wars figurines.
Poser. Yeah alright. Try going down a wicked steep hill on your little fag board and see how long you last. Can't go 40mph down a mountain on a fag board, can ya?
so basicaly i think that whoever made this crap up was 100% for sure teased and bullied as a child.. they also must have had to experience all of these things to have such an imotional discomfort with numerous events as such. maker of these posts is hiding something and has a personal problem (such as bodily deformities, glasses, bad breath, and other nonsense) great job disrespecting so many people for your own pleasure to make you feel better about yourself... and in your next life i hope you are reborn coming out of the woumb wearing a fat ass belt buckle talking on a blue tooth conected to an iphone and the your first words will be "i like" very nice!" and blasting out of the womb driving a PT cruiser pulling a trailer with your tricked out bike and your longboard in the trunk... oh yea i forgot to mention that your going to own a fidel castro hat company when you get old and make your side money creating funky ringtones.. have a nice day! - Doc.
Damn.. The messages are more fun then the article.. You dumb fucks trying to defend your long boards are just to damn funny.. Its a board you stand on and go with lighten the fuck up... Who gives a shit if there is more or less skill...
If fucking people worried more about themselves then others... oh wahat a world it would be...
Well done. Laughed my ass off, and unlike some of the people who have things such as the belt buckles and guitar hero i still think its very funny. and those people who get so offended should really just go away. if they didn't want to be offended then they shouldn't of looked at the article, Christ i took one look at the title and though ohh fuck i probably have all then, but fuck it it should be funny
Lemmings; I think is the summation of this list.
1)Longboarding became hugely popular about three years ago. As a "shortboard" skater, Most of these long boarders were just bad shortboarders who were not all that good. Longboarding is fun though, and if you enjoy doing it then just do it damn it, and who gives a shit what your peers think. If alot of you longboarders had that attitude when you were getting picked on for your goofy style on short decks you would be ripping shit up and 360ing a 10 step right now, just like you wanted when you stepped on a board for the first time as a kid.
2) another lemming trend that has just exploded all over the college scene here in california are these elaboratly printed hoodie / track shirts / tees. It is an amazing exception to see a male student at humboldt state not wearing one. And now that everyone got their financial aid checks they're everywere, like locusts they just appeared overnight.
I lived in Rochester NY, and about 4 years ago there was this huge sub-culture of bike builders, they made all these dr. suess like designs. Anything that you create with your hands and imagination, for the sole purpose of personal enjoyment deserves some deal of respect. Especially when eveything can be accessed through ready-made means.....yeah.....why do I care?
What he ALSO forgot to add is that people think that posting a comment about how posting a comment about a cool and uncool blog is cool, but it's actually totally gay...
look,
>iphone are good, but u look like an arse using it
>longboards are fast, but if i saw some1 in town on 1 id put a log in the way.
>any one tring to be a nonconfromist is a conformist
> funny bulks are great untill ur dad finds it funny
if you think that longboards are stupid, then you dont know jack. the tricks you do on a longboard are much more intence than a short board. look i can make it flip, no... on a longboard its: look i can speedcheck, then drift a corner at 50mph, and avoide going over a cliff. there are reason that you wear full leathers and motorcycle helmets. if you fall, you die. i would say that is an extreme sport. whoever wrote this blog is a douche, who doesnt know what they are talking about. that would be like calling surfing, not as real because you dont kickflip a surfboard. fuck you. i make my own longboards, rather buying them. i put work and design into each of them. i dont act like i am superior, and have let a lot of ppl ride them. everyone who has, has felt the euphoria of flowing. this site has no real information, and seems to be run by a pervert. screw you
Uncool is a DJ on a supposed C & W radio station running down cowboys who have worked all their life to win a trophy buckle, while also working 24/7 - 365 to supply us with food to eat. Strap yourself to the back of a wild bull or a bucking bronc for 8 seconds and then you can talk.
Tattoos! The only rebels anymore are those without them. When church going girls I know are getting them, they've lost their cache'. Tribal and chinese tat's are the worst. Exactly what "tribe" is it you belong to and YOUR NOT CHINESE!
People who can't laugh at themselves = everything thats wrong with the world. I have had personal traits of mine made fun of dozens of times on this site and I LAUGH AT IT. God damn son, I would hate to live in a world where I had to take everything so fucking serious that I got all pissed at a longboarding joke. Jezus fucking Christmas, how anal are you? Lighten up and if you can't take a joke what the fuck are you doing on a joke site? Shit!
what should have been on the list are Guidos... AKA people with sunless tanners, spiked hair, designer jeans (should have been on list too... you know the ones with premade holes), puckered lipped photos... google it.
I think that this site is the biggest waste of time i have ever contributed to. The list was actually cool. Wether you like it or not. It's cool. We all do the same thing in life. We all move, sleep, eat, drink, shit, shower, well most of us shower, work, and most importantly try and share our lives with some-one who cares... Well, the thing i think everyone is missing in this post is the same thing that seperates us. "the way we go about it", that's the only difference between everyone in the world, otherwise we are all the same. It's the way we go about it that shows our personality. We can't make ourselves cool, only other people can. So the things on this list is merely a reflection of what other people think... I can't believe you guys don't get that. And really who cares what other people think... If you like longboard skateboards... Ride it... If you like PT Cruisers, drive one.... But remember, if you bought it to be cool, you wasted your money because coolness is not for sale... Neither is love.... You can't create it and it's not for sale. Cool is merely how some-one else thinks of your personality.... That's it...
Wow that article was stupid as shit and so were the majority of the commenters. Also longboards can go REALLY FUCKING FAST! Kevin Reimer (a pro longboarder) has gone 125 km/h! That's 77mph for all you idiots that don't use a measuring system that makes sense! And that's no anomaly, he is often in competitions against other boarders and is in no way the indisputable best. Oh shit ever heard of the IGSA? Fukkin dumbshits!
I would like to contest this entire Top-10 in order to have it replaced by the ATTITUDES I FIND MOST UNBECOMING:
1) Claiming to have the ability to deem random stuff "Cool" or "Uncool."
2) Believing stuff makes you cool.
Why you think your cool: You have a section for girls on your site
Why your not cool: You have that section to make people think you are a guy who loves girls but in reality you have no game and have never hookup with anyone which is why you have the time to think of all of these not cool things. Fuckin Bitch
Ya do more reasearch on longboarding before you bash it.
I agree that posers who buy longboards because its kind of a fad right now who can't skate and do go really slow and in a straight line are not cool and stupid but respect the real longboarders who freeride, slide, and do downhill.
My friend fractured his head and damaged an artery in his neck causing him to bleed from his ear for 6 hours straight i def don't think you can do that if someone walking is going faster than you. I'd like to see you try to ride a longboard. go get a life bitch.
know what else should be on the list? people who post lame shit on the internet because nobody will listen to them in real life. get a life douchetard. know what the top speed for a longboard is? 80mph. if you fall doing that youll get a bigger booboo then if you fall doing a damn kickflip
Guys, chill. Its a joke. Everyone who has been to youtube once in their life has seen longboarders going 70mph in Colorado and understands that they are probably the gnarliest athletes since gladiators.
For all those that are trashing the author, he/she can say whatever they want, because it is the internet. ANYONE can write WHATEVER they want, even if it is in chat-speak because they are too lazy to write the entire word, which would be one or two more letters (i.e.: crazy=crzy), has horrid grammar, and makes absolutely no sense.
If you want this to go away, that would mean taking away human rights. Sometimes I wouldn't mind having a few rules w/ free speech, like no swearing every other word and wasting precious oxygen, but then half the country would get their panties in a wad. "I want to be able to cuss for no f***ing reason in front of m*****f***ing kids and have absolutely no control over my horrendous grammar. I obviously didn't pass English"
But, this will never go away until those rights are revoked. So, shut it. The right for them to be stupid is also the same right for you to tell them they are stupid.
your telling me no one ever gets hurt on a longboard!!!!??? there are countless clips on youtube of people going down insane hills and eating the fuckin ground hardcore. yeah some pussies only cruise around all slow but most people take hardcore hills.
one of them is wrong and its the longboard one cause I skateboard (with a normal skateboard) and i longboard and i love both of them. longboards will get me places faster and I can chill on them sad part is that you cant do tricks. Normal skateboards are fun cause you can do plenty of tricks but really you cant go as fast and as smotthly
Dude, you're a Jackass. Some of these things aren't used because they think they're cool, but because they're just better. Iphones may have bad reception, but overall, they're decent. Some "Ironic" belt buckles are funny. Like the one in the picture. It isn't being used to show you're cool. but the exact opposite. Having a videogame controller belt shows the world that you're a nerd and proud. Al beit, people that wear bluetooths all the time can be annoying, but they are really useful. People quote those movies because they are funny movies. Pt Cruisers are cool and nice cars, that's why people have them. You are right about the bike thing. Fidel hats are just another style, no reason to rat on that one. Longboards are used because they're WAY easier. I couldn't ride a skateboard to save my life, but i got a longboard down in a day. And funny ringtones are awesome.
There, I hope I made my point well enough.
@Mr. Anonymous Article Writer Dude: Take some English Comp classes. No one ever told you that a preposition is something not to end a sentence with? Right, said Fred.
Hey man, have you ever tried going down a hill on a longboard and going upwards of 35 miles an hour? Do you even have the balance to do a manual? yeah didn't think so. try it before you knock it man.
The article was hilarious and caused me to laugh out loud, spitting water all over my keyboard. Frankly though, the comments to it are even more hilarious. You are all very very angry people who should immediately enroll in an anger management class before you hurt someone.
Cunt lips should be far less flappy. Especially puffy punched-in vaginas on longboards. Whatever happened to men lacking fallopian tubes? If you've found yourself guilty of anything on this list, and yes, I'm mostly looking at you. You will never grow testicles.
Your argument for longboarding being uncool may be legitimate for people who cruise the boardwalk at a snails pace, but until you've been weaving in and out of traffic on a busy street or hit the pavement going 30 mph downhill you have no room to talk

Belt buckles rule. Homophobia does not. Longboards are really fun to ride down hills, but very impractical otherwise.

Yeah, that right there pretty much invalidates half the arguments on here.

My friend fractured his head and damaged an artery in his neck causing him to bleed from his ear for 6 hours straight i def don't think you can do that if someone walking is going faster than you. I'd like to see you try to ride a longboard. go get a life bitch.

know what else should be on the list? people who post lame shit on the internet because nobody will listen to them in real life. get a life douchetard. know what the top speed for a longboard is? 80mph. if you fall doing that youll get a bigger booboo then if you fall doing a damn kickflip

Making a list of "what's cool and what's not" automatically puts you at #1. Whoever wrote this list is tragically hip.
Blogs might be cool now........

I'm sure this was hilarious to you and your friends, but next time you want to make a list, do some research and read a dictionary.

Guys, chill. Its a joke. Everyone who has been to youtube once in their life has seen longboarders going 70mph in Colorado and understands that they are probably the gnarliest athletes since gladiators.

For all those that are trashing the author, he/she can say whatever they want, because it is the internet. ANYONE can write WHATEVER they want, even if it is in chat-speak because they are too lazy to write the entire word, which would be one or two more letters (i.e.: crazy=crzy), has horrid grammar, and makes absolutely no sense.
If you want this to go away, that would mean taking away human rights. Sometimes I wouldn't mind having a few rules w/ free speech, like no swearing every other word and wasting precious oxygen, but then half the country would get their panties in a wad. "I want to be able to cuss for no f***ing reason in front of m*****f***ing kids and have absolutely no control over my horrendous grammar. I obviously didn't pass English"
But, this will never go away until those rights are revoked. So, shut it. The right for them to be stupid is also the same right for you to tell them they are stupid.

writing "txt" when they mean "text" because you save .0001 seconds by skipping the e

your telling me no one ever gets hurt on a longboard!!!!??? there are countless clips on youtube of people going down insane hills and eating the fuckin ground hardcore. yeah some pussies only cruise around all slow but most people take hardcore hills.

one of them is wrong and its the longboard one cause I skateboard (with a normal skateboard) and i longboard and i love both of them. longboards will get me places faster and I can chill on them sad part is that you cant do tricks. Normal skateboards are fun cause you can do plenty of tricks but really you cant go as fast and as smotthly

Dude, you're a Jackass. Some of these things aren't used because they think they're cool, but because they're just better. Iphones may have bad reception, but overall, they're decent. Some "Ironic" belt buckles are funny. Like the one in the picture. It isn't being used to show you're cool. but the exact opposite. Having a videogame controller belt shows the world that you're a nerd and proud. Al beit, people that wear bluetooths all the time can be annoying, but they are really useful. People quote those movies because they are funny movies. Pt Cruisers are cool and nice cars, that's why people have them. You are right about the bike thing. Fidel hats are just another style, no reason to rat on that one. Longboards are used because they're WAY easier. I couldn't ride a skateboard to save my life, but i got a longboard down in a day. And funny ringtones are awesome.
There, I hope I made my point well enough.

@Mr. Anonymous Article Writer Dude: Take some English Comp classes. No one ever told you that a preposition is something not to end a sentence with? Right, said Fred.

Hey man, have you ever tried going down a hill on a longboard and going upwards of 35 miles an hour? Do you even have the balance to do a manual? yeah didn't think so. try it before you knock it man.

The article was hilarious and caused me to laugh out loud, spitting water all over my keyboard. Frankly though, the comments to it are even more hilarious. You are all very very angry people who should immediately enroll in an anger management class before you hurt someone.

Cunt lips should be far less flappy. Especially puffy punched-in vaginas on longboards. Whatever happened to men lacking fallopian tubes? If you've found yourself guilty of anything on this list, and yes, I'm mostly looking at you. You will never grow testicles.

Your argument for longboarding being uncool may be legitimate for people who cruise the boardwalk at a snails pace, but until you've been weaving in and out of traffic on a busy street or hit the pavement going 30 mph downhill you have no room to talk
