Seeing a spider in the rear view mirror of the car when your driving I can only imagine this would be similar to the time a bee was buzzing around my car while driving once.

People talking on cell-phones in a movie theater. Smoking in a movie theater??? Are there people that actually do that??? I would think they would get tossed pretty quick.


bird crap on a clean caractually, Bob Saget is much uncooler.

Edit to quickly change vote #3

Seeing a spider in the rear view mirror of the car when your driving --going with your mother might actually be cool--acting as the duitful offspring. Now going with your wife would be uncool.

People talking on cell-phones in a movie theater.--I remember smoking sections in movie theaters in the Far East many years ago. Annoying as smoking is to me (now), talking disrupts the movie.

garage sale (spiders I can deal with, it's flying bugs in the car I can't stand)

Cell Phones (conceptually smoking would be worse but I've never experienced it)

Bob Saget

smoking: both are awful, but I'd rather put up with the cellphone user than someone blowing their smoke near me

going to garage sales with your mother - I guess.
People talking on cell-phones in a movie theater - My worst experience was during Chicago when someone was yelling over the top of a music sequence. I have never experienced smoking in a theatre though it would be very uncool.
bird crap on a clean car - this seems to happen a lot more since I bought a new car last year. Bob Saget doesn't get any air time over here so i'm not bothered by his uncoolness.

as uncool as cell phones would be, smoking would be 100 times more uncool.

garage sales, cell phones in the theater, and Bob Saget win.

I broke a tie in favor of cell phones in the theater - I've never encountered smoking in a theater. As was noted earlier, does anyone really do it?

Treppenwitz - I'm sure I'll think of something witty to type right after hitting the submit button here.

slow drivers - Sumo thongs are pretty bad, but exposure in moderation is tolerable. Slow drivers, however, are constantly bombarding me. :angry:

In my continuing quest to keep you entertained, I present:



The Top Ten Uncool Things That Didn't Make It Into This Tournament

10. junk mail/spam

9. when airlines lose your luggage

8. running a comb through your hair and accidentally stabbing yourself in the scalp with the teeth

7. when your dog has to go "outside" at 3:00 in the morning and then sniffs around for ten minutes in order to find just the right spot

6. wearing wet socks

5. multiple security stickers on DVD cases

4. throwing your ball into the gutter five feet down the lane even though you've been bowling for years

3. picking out the hair that's clogging the bathtub drain

2. going to the video store and discovering that they actually have in stock that obscure foreign film you've been wanting to see...only it's already been rented out

1. when a really cute girl almost half your age crushes on you (but you know damn well that if you went out with her she'd wise up and dump your chump ass within a week)

Hey, this is a good thread. Late, but I'm in. I wish I hadn't missed the vote about the spider in the rearview. Although seeing a wasp in your rearview is worse! I almost got in a pretty bad accident because of a hornet. I drove fast enough with the windows down that it couldn't fly forward to get me. (I don't like spiders one bit, but I'm terrified of wasps).

Sumo wrestlers in thongs may be scary, but nothing is more aggravating than slow drivers!!
