Ski Bob. Cool or queer?



 
P.T Cruiser of the slopes. Hey babe wanna ride on my bob?
A friend of mine, who has always been cool, informed me he bought a "ski bob" over the weekend.

WTF say I?

Called an emergency impromptu focus group of peeps to gauge their hipster reactions... which ranged from "beat down," "un-datable," "ain't gonna get laid," to "patently bogus," and finally, "do you want the truth?"

Dude, the consensus is, if you're not handicapped or a paraplegic, and if you gotta sit to make it down the hill, why not simply procure yo' badself  a cafeteria tray?  Honey, there's got to be an easier way to score oxycodone.

Old friend, why don't you just chill in the lodge with a double bourbon on the rocks?  You're gonna lose your cred, your friends, and ain't nobody but the Palins or the Duggars be trippin' on them "ski bobs."

P.S. Hey Ethan Frome, what's the cost of one of them bad boys?

  2. I knew a wordsmith such as yourself would be able to choose the perfect adjective.

  3. Lame is a good word. I just don't get it.

  4. Me, neither. Isn't the whole point of skiing the perfect chance to either break some bones or possibly battle a tree and lose?

  5. This dude is old, and he just can't give it up...you know like viagra...men are unable to accept the ravages of time. The first activity jettisoned by my middle aged friends is skiing for exactly the reasons you enunciated Claire. It's a total non starter and it costs a frickin' fortune to take your wretched life into your hands each time you take to the slopes.
