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.

I can’t believe you only gave the Gators 5 points! They totally deserve more than that, making the two of you much cooler than you’re giving yourselves credit for.
haha.
Are you both alumni?
