Tragic Attempts at Being CoolYou say 'I'm cool, I'm no fool' but then you wind up dropping out of high school'. It was Melle Mel who said that, I swear down. THE Melle Mel, that's right.
This week's question is all about your tragic attempts to be cool (pictures welcome), or perhaps times when you've witnessed another's misguided attempt to be a hep-cat daddio. Share the shame, it might make you feel better.

In the 80s my brother in law idolised Freddie Mercury and dressed like him - looked like his twin brother.Short haircut, moustache, white teeshirt, fitted leather jacket, studded belt, the works. There may even have been a leather biker cap with a chain. There were certainly cowboy boots.
He looked REALLY cool and everyone was impressed.
Of course, there was no internet back then so it took some years for us all to realise that the look was pure San Francisco gay clone. Heck, we lived in an English backwater, we didn't even know there WERE such people.
I bet he's hunted down all the photos and burned them.
