Cool Karma:
the guarantee that a moment of extreme coolness will ultimately lead to tripping on something in front of an audience later.
On Friday I had an insanely cool moment. I was wearing my new boots and my tight jeans, feeling pretty cute as I rode around a corner on my bike and simultaneously whipped my sunglasses off my head, flipped my hair, and put the sunglasses on my face.
I looked. So cool.
In the moment I spent enjoying it though, I came to terms with the fact that at some point, I would do something ridiculously dorky to bring my cool-level back down to normal.
When I arrived back at my dorm, I attempted to dismount my bike by the bike racks. Cool Karma was quick to take advantage of the combination of my 2-inch heels and my skintight jeans. I managed to half get off my bike, but ended up losing my balance and collapsing into someone else’s bike, bringing my own bike down on top of me. There were definitely people watching.
As an added bonus, there is now a nice big bruise on my thigh so I can remember just how cool I really am.
