This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Yeah we weren’t cool either, but we were the kind of uncool that doesn’t go to such places. I guess we were a little cool, considering we were the kids who’d have bonfires and shit and stay up all night
I would say staying up with bonfires probably put you pretty high on the cool meter. What was the percent participation with academic or fine arts clubs within your group? That was a pretty good gauge of uncoolness in my time.
Marching band for two years before I quit to get an internship at an engineering firm. The real problem was I was socially awkward and weird and spent the first half of the time weird looking.
oh yeah. marching band definitely qualifies.
