Hello Stanx Enthusiasts!
My name is Nick Bigness, some of you may know me, some perhaps not. Asked by Tim I have an impossible act to perform, Writing for Stanx!! Being a fan myself, I have enjoyed many articles written by Tim, Darren, and the infamous Mike Brown. Therefore, I thank Tim for this opportunity and hope I do him proud.
School can be a rough place, mentally you need to have good grades in all your subjects, and pressures from friends. What im trying to get at is the "Art of Being Cool," mastered by some wanted by others. Myself being part of the uncool group wonder exactly "What it Takes to be Cool?" If you can be "cool" your highschool life is set, you have friends, reputation(not all good just ask Vicki), and girlfriends/boyfriends. Being "cool" is like being in an exclusive club, a lot of people might know about it but only a certain number get in. Now Im aware we cant all be as popular as Chris Sheridan or even half as good looking, but isnt there just a way for us to join this exclusive club? I find myself looking back to one episode of the Simpsons, where Homer joins the Stone Cutters and the only way he could join was if he saved the life of a Stone Cutter, or if a family member is a Stone Cutter. Luckily for him Abe came through in the clutch. But for some its not as easy as Homer to become "cool", others do crazy things like drastically change their appearance and start referring to themselves in the third person by the new hip nickname they "received" from their many friends. "The Sherminator is a sophisticated sex robot sent back through time to change the future for one lucky lady" (One of the many examples im talking about). Now I know everyone is gonna say that they loved Sherman from American Pie, but technically he is very uncool, look at the guy hes got more problems than Charles Manson. So basically my point is this, being "cool" is a natural thing, becoming "cool" is very strenuous task, so whether your "cool" or not there will always be someone cooler!!
Ive decided to scratch my original topic of enemas because I still feel a little bloated and instead Ive gone with famous catch phrases. A catch phrase can be one mans ticket to stardom. Im sure everyone has one, and knows a couple more. Some catch phrases cant be used in everyday conversation, for example you wont usually hear anyone yell out "I can taste the bubbles" or it wouldnt be right. Quotes like "Giddy Up" or "HEELLOOO" from Seinfeld are perfect examples of how we take a catch phrase and strangle its effectiveness. Personally, I enjoy a nice "McPHEE" or a "Are you a Pothead Focker?" once and awhile, but some phrases I would personally not like to die so I hope that people would only use them in rare instances. Not only does a catch phrase have to be clever and sometimes remarkably stupid, but it must also fit the speaker. You dont want some little kid explain to you how it was the "Moupes" and not the "Mores"or some sweaty hairy old man explain to you how hes "Hans Vitzvelvet TRAINER OF DOLPHIN." To culminate this topic I ask for all future catch phrases, to use them gently and to keep them around for more than a week. "Listen baby, that was cool but I gotta run."
Keep on reading, and ill keep writing,

WEEK 5A
Hey guys! Here is my weekly attempt to impress you. I do not know if you notice but a challange has been brought forth to Mr. Cool 469 to write a collum. Lets hope he takes us up on it. While we are on the subject, Big Bad Brown has a new collum. So check it out. Our like stanx surprise is not too far away. I can't wait to show everyone! This week I am only going to talk for a bit because there are four great collums I got to tell you about. So here's my part.
THREE THINGS I LIKE
1) Girls kissing each other. Its pretty self explanitory.
2) The new Christina Agulera video because its bold, provacative, and will change pop culter as we know it. Translation - She's got a sweet can and it's hanging all over the place in that video!
3) Beer. Because Im funnier, smarter, and better looking when I drink vast amounts of it.
AND NOW THE COLLUMS
Ian Turner: check it out in the For the People Page. It's all about ugly people doin the ugly! enjoy!
Brown: found on his regular page. A nice change of pace. It will leave you thinkin'
Darren Sawyers: Hes a jerk who does not give to shits about what anyone else thinks. Perfect person to write for our page!
well thanks for your time!
