Coolness, and other stuff I lack

I meant to reference this ages ago, but I was interested to odhierre's response to an earlier post here. So I ask you all: Why are you cool? Give me pluses and minuses.

Dang nabbit...

So anyway, I was feeling all smug and superior for coughing up the extra cash to order an import copy of Richard Thompson's The Old Kit Bag instead of waiting for the delayed U.S. release in May. Now I Find out that the U.S. release will include two unreleased bonus live tracks from his "1,000 Years of Popular Music" shows in NYC. Could somebody kill me now? Please? (I just hope that his version of "Oops! I Did It Again" sees the light of day...)
