GTP Cool Wall - Lancia Thema 8.32

[Famine]

That's what I don't get. If people buy Ferraris to be cool, then the cars must be cool whether or not the person is cool.

Except that the people who think they're cool are the uncool people who'd buy them.

Am I the only person here for whom the word "cool" is starting to lose meaning now that I've read it so many times?...

Really? Cool.

Wow. this argument about sleepers is really making this thread boring, especially since this car isn't really a sleeper.

Unfortunately, because one of the participants is a moderator, I cannot put it on my "Ignore" list.

I mean, how is this fun? Care to explain how getting angry at someone is fun?

It's called debate, Jim. I know you shy away from it but if others choose to partake in it, it's their choice. 80Y, Famine, Niky et al enjoy it. It's also still fairly light-hearted. Nobody has called anyone else an idiot, even if they might be thinking it

 

[Jim Prower]

Ah, crap. That means I've had an Aspie moment.

I still think it reflects rather poorly on you guys. Makes you seem like old grumps.

 

[homeforsummer]

We are old grumps And 80Y is a slightly younger grump.

 

[Famine]

Seem?

Anyway, who's getting angry?

 

[Jim Prower]

I'm reading too far into your posts, I guess. Interpreting feelings that aren't there.

I have Aspergers Syndrome, I take some things far too literally.

Really? Cool.

So who exactly is cool?

I have no feelings. Live long and prosper.

So who exactly is cool?

Why you asking me? I'm not cool enough to say.

Problem is that some people take their opinion as fact, and thus it is pointless to argue. Hear me, this "debate" will get nowhere. Remember that five pages after this one.

Ehhhhhh!

Talking about how cool you are is so not cool it automatically disqualifies you from ever qualifying as cool. Unless you're so cool that you're exempt from this rule. But if you have to make that excuse, you're not.

/o\ DUDE! When did I say I was???

What I was saying was uncool people can ask about being cool without it being detrimental to their coolness. I was saying that uncool people can't start giving lectures on what is cool. Where in that do you decipher that I think I'm cool?

 

[Jondot]

I don't like these threads anymore.

I don't like these threads anymore.

I know, tell me about it, pictures of the Fonz scare the living hell out of me.

I'm trying to figure out who these cool people are that I should look up to to figure out the coolness of a car.

Talking about coolness is never cool.

That's what I don't get. If people buy Ferraris to be cool, then the cars must be cool whether or not the person is cool.

You can't buy coolness.

You stated:

Look at any scenario - its always uncool people asking about coolness, cool people talking about themselves and how they're cool.

And I stated:

Talking about how cool you are is so not cool it automatically disqualifies you from ever qualifying as cool.

I'm not saying you're cool or uncool. I barely know ye. I'm just saying that cool people never refer to themselves as cool.

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

You can't buy coolness.

Money buys everything.

 

[Lucas]

Wrong. There are some things money can't buy. For everything else, there's MasterCard.
