I Used to Be Much Cooler

May 12, 2009

cool

You know, there were days when I felt much cooler than I do today.

Like, back in ’93, I felt awesome. All the girls loved me… even if they were taller. And the parted hair was dope. I mean, that was the thing man!

Interesting fact: I started coding around this time (serious coding… not just the flaming horizontal rules and stuff). Good times good times. I thought I was awesome.

I don’t think that so much anymore.

I used to be much cooler than I am today. What did you used to be?

  1. I used to be smarter than I am now.

  2. I used to leave the house. I used to have a real job. I used to think I knew the bible. I don't want to go back to "used to" days. I like the ones I am in now just fine.

  3. I used to be a serious tomboy–as in, I loathed shopping for clothes in the girls' department. That's not to say that I'm a shopaholic now. I'm just…"girlier."

  4. I used to know everything when I was in Bible College

  5. I used to be a punk who thought I knew it all and realize now I didn't know crap.

  6. I used to be an arrogant prick but now I'm no longer arrogant.

  7. I used to be a lot skinnier and smarter. it is amazing the older you get, the more you know but the more you know you do not know.

  8. I used to be a lot fatter and less happy. But I don't regret that part of my life :)

  9. I used to be in love with Alyssa Milano….come on…anyone else

  10. Oh man I used to have that "Soccer is Life" t-shirt. . .

    I used to be a lot more of a risk taker. Now I just play it safe. :(

  11. I was really dorky,
    then i got slightly cool,
    then i went nerdy/geeky,
    the nerdy became cool,
    so I became cool,
    but my geekiness lingered,
    then i met my wife – coolness benchmark was set,
    now i bathe in the after glow of those early days

  12. I'm not sure I've ever been cool. I may have played one on TV (or however the phrase goes), but I wasn't cool. Now I realize just how uncool I was/am. Ever have one of the moments when an old memory pops up and you shudder at just how uncool/ridiculous/jerky you were at that moment?

  13. I don't know which one are you. are you the "tongue" boy? anyway i was once skinny but now i gained weight and a little cuter than before. LOL!

  14. Woooooow ……………you placed soccer?

  15. I used to be more adventureous… I used to camp a lot when I was in Boy Scouts. Now my idea of camping is the nearest Hampton Inn. :(
