hw 28

How I meet your Mother is a television show about a guy telling his kids about how he meet their mother. One guy who i thought was cool or trying to play the role of a cool guy is Barney Stinson, played by Neil Patrick Harris. Barney portrayed as a womanizer who leads a life of randomness. Although not the main character, Barney takes the main character around places, mostly strip clubs, but often makes the main character do crazy things. Barney portrays the free willed cool guy and even though he can be an asshole at times, this makes people want to follow him around more.

Jeff Bayer. http://www.askmen.com/money/how_to_250/252b_how_to.html, Fitness Specialist, Every Monday. Seems to be like the example that Andy gave for HW 28, except i think that more people follow this concept. On Andy's website, it tells you to not give a damn about what people think of you, and to do things your way, i.e. be yourself but nobody does that and even if they do, its hard to tell. This site, as much as i hate it, seems to be more accurate. It tells you how to be in the middle of a pack, and tells you how to make the least amount of mistakes when looking cool. It tells you how to interpret how people would see you if you do something wrong, and teaches you tricks on how to please someone without over doing it.

Alan Who. http://alanwho.com/ask/how-to-be-cool/ 2/16/09. This looks like it was posted from Nickoloeon or something. First off, it tells you that no matter who you are, your cool, then it contradicts itself by giving you a list of whats cool. Anyways, this list says that being cool means to never lose your cool and to learn from school. goth kids are never cool, always obey the law, always be nice, and explain yourself. This is how Alan thinks cool is.


Krystle C., Nandita Singh, Lucas Halbert, Joli, Leona, Mark, AlienBoy and others. http://www.wikihow.com/Be-Cool-at-School. This site is about how to be cool in school. It tells you to not, like all the other sites, not be so hot headed, and be nice, and be clean, and have your own style and have a little humor. These tips are more specific for school and if you want to learn more about how to act cool, just click on the hyperlink there...you know that blue link. If your to lazy to find it, ill just paste it again right here (http://www.wikihow.com/Be-Cool-at-School). There we go.

Scott Christensen. http://www.a1b2c3.com/suilodge/metfun1.htm. 1995. Anyways, i got bored of looking up things that makes you cool when they are just recycled crap, so i took a different approach of "cool". Did you know that there are other "cool ways" too? Not just how to be cool in school, there's how to be a cool role model, how to do cool things, and finally cool ways to die. I've just read some of them such as the "Bullet in your head" or the Death by Seinfeld and i wonder, how are these things considered cool? Is it how hard they are to attempt? Or how it will look to other people? Are these "cause of death" cool because they have the word cool entitled just like the many other things that are labeled cool because people find them cool? If this isn't cool then how much can we trust other people when they find something cool?

Overall, there is no way to seem cool to everyone. Just like in Alan Who's document, you're already cool, to some people and best to find them too. No matter what you do, piss off the principal, become a lapdog for a girl, do something extremely illegal, you are cool to a certain type of group that can be found anywhere thanks to the internet. All these repeated nonsense about being cool is just an act, just like in How to be cool in school, forget what you think people will think about you. think of them as a worthless human being with no future if it helps being yourself. And that's the only method i agree with form all these sites. Any other method it more like how to be a celebrity because it teaches you how to deal with attention. If your an attention freak, follow the steps, otherwise don't give a damn about other people, just deal with your own life.
