Are you a boring cool person? Do you hang out with many boring cool people? What makes someone a boring cool person? Let's talk about BORING COOL PEOPLE!

Being consciously cool = the most boring thing ever.

If your haircut is the most interesting thing about you...

Luigi Vampa (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:17 (twenty-two years ago)

Boring cool people = hip. Real cool people = not boring.

Llahtuos Kcin (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:18 (twenty-two years ago)

My haircut is interesting. People keep saying I look like Tintin.

Llahtuos Kcin (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:18 (twenty-two years ago)

But it's not the MOST interesting thing about you (even just from your posts, I can back me up here).
I rocked the Tintin style back in 96. Sorta by accident.

Luigi Vampa (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:19 (twenty-two years ago)

I do it deliberatly. I even cut it myself.

Llahtuos Kcin (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:20 (twenty-two years ago)

boring and uncool.

is this another Strokes thread?

Llahtuos Kcin, you have the interesting haircut, but I think we need to know a lot more about you before you qualify as a boring cool person. What job do you do? Do you go to art gallery openings and sip awful white wine? Do you wear NHS-style glasses? Questions, questions.

I work in a university library (film department, natch), edit videos, know lots of filmmakes, and am deputy editor of some online hpster scum music magazine.

Llahtuos Kcin (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:27 (twenty-two years ago)

'Filmmakes' being stuff like Warner Brothers and New Line, innit.

Llahtuos Kcin (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:28 (twenty-two years ago)

I think you're at risk.

Luigi Vampa (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:28 (twenty-two years ago)

Yes indeed!

Llahtuos Kcin (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:29 (twenty-two years ago)

Well you've definitely got boring cool person glasses. The case is gaining momentum.

Sam Therapy, Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:29 (twenty-two years ago)

All my life I've been working for this. Maybe soon I'll have sex with goths.

Llahtuos Kcin (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:29 (twenty-two years ago)

Today I am wearing a t-shirt that says 'intellectual hooligan'.

Llahtuos Kcin (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:30 (twenty-two years ago)

The t-shirt thing = giveaway. Come on down Llahtuos Kcin, you are this week's BORING COOL PERSON!

Sam Therapy, Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:32 (twenty-two years ago)

Hooray!

Llahtuos Kcin (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:33 (twenty-two years ago)

Plusplusplus I'm waiting on my iPod being delivered. And on an adjacent thread I'm name-dropping Iranian directors.

Llahtuos Kcin (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:34 (twenty-two years ago)

Fucking kill me now, please.

Llahtuos Kcin (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:35 (twenty-two years ago)

NHS-style?

Jordan (Jordan), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:43 (twenty-two years ago)

Diesel-style.

Llahtuos Kcin (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:44 (twenty-two years ago)

it depends on the definition of "cool" - if it's like someone who's chilled/unbothered/laid-back then i have met a few. like, so not bothered about everything that they are never passionate enough to have anything much to say about anything, which may well be a sensible way to view a lot of things but can be boring.

ken c (ken c), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:46 (twenty-two years ago)

Australians, then.

Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:47 (twenty-two years ago)

Nick, kciN, you're too much fun to be truly boring.

Luigi Vampa (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:52 (twenty-two years ago)

Diesel-style?

I feel like Aja. I clearly what you're talking about (um, like the kind of glasses I wear), but haven't heard the terms.

Jordan (Jordan), Wednesday, 21 January 2004 15:53 (twenty-two years ago)

people who believe in stereotypes are boring too, except not even cool.
