have you become the atypical parent type or have you retained your coolness?
i am not cool and havent been for awhile. recently i gave up all together. i drive a minivan, where khaki shorts, superhero t-shirts and crocs. my kids think i am cool as ice but they're just kids. other adults think i am a dork. this wasn't always the case. i have excepted this.

I find myself getting less and less cool as time goes by...I thought Beiber Fever was the new swine flu

Re: have you become the atypical parent type or have you retained your coolness?
Not really lol I'm too lazy to care about being cool. As long as my family is happy, I'm happy. I don't make much time for anything else.

Re: have you become the atypical parent type or have you retained your coolness?
My kids only think i'm cool when we get them presents.
So no, I'm not cool...but i've come to terms with it.

Re: have you become the atypical parent type or have you retained your coolness?
Oh dear crocs, shame on you! In GB cool is an 80's expression, so yeah, it is definitely uncool in the sense that we would use it. Here someone is sick, the only way I'm sick is getting Nintendo stuff before it comes out because my best mate from school works in their console design, apart from that, I'm just a weird man that lives with them.

Re: have you become the atypical parent type or have you retained your coolness?
I gave up on "cool" long ago.
In fact, I have a sneaky feeling that even when I thought I was cool I was just being an idiot, so possibly I've never been cool...  So what the hell IS Beiber Feaver anyway?  |
