To keep track of how cool we are as people who have a baby (parents), we’re going to keep score in the form of ‘cool points’. We’ll award or subtract cool points for things we do, wear, eat, think, whatever. For example:

We like the Florida Gators. [+5 cool points]

Our ‘cool score’ and ranking will be kept in the sidebar. To make sense of it all, here’s our official AWSC? Cool Points Scale:

points	ranking
(100+)	beyond hope
(75-99)	sad
(50-74)	lame
(25-49)	off
(1-24)	slightly lame
0	whatever
1-24	slightly cool
25-49	alright
50-74	cool
75-99	SWEET
100+	rockstars

The parentheses indicate negative numbers. You know, just like in Microsoft Excel. [-10 cool points]

To clarify, because we deem something uncool DOES NOT mean we think it’s wrong. It’s not wrong to flail around with a Boppy on your head to get the baby to stop crying, but it ain’t cool either.

To see how we’ve done so far, check the Cool Score History.
