    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Jason Statham is doing something right

    A belief in gender identity involves a level of faith as there is nothing tangible to prove its existence which, as something divorced from the physical body, is similar to the idea of a soul. - Colette Colfer

    Something a little sad about anyone over 50 wanting to be cool, puts me in mind of some middle-aged 'rock journalist'. A little bit desperate.

    There are some effortlessly cool people of all ages but they don't see themselves as cool nor do they have to try.

    I agree, anyone trying too hard is rather sad and pathetic. Does Tom Waits look in the mirror and try his cool look. Nah, he just is.

    Eddie Irvine for me. Chilled confident straight talking personality. Drove formula one and Le Mans.

    Flys planes, owns boats, classic cars, modern super cars and motorcycles. Lives in some place in Florida I think overlooking the sea. Never made an eejit out of himself or dragged through the courts for anything. A fine life.
