I think this supports my theory that everything is considered cool somewhere.

There's hope for me yet!

I like accordions. Personally I never understood why people make fun of it, or why all the other instruments steal its lunch money.

Bagpipes have it worse.

Although "Shipping Up to Boston" has the best use of bagpipes in a punk rock song ever.

I dunno. I think accordions have more of an image problem than bagpipes. Nobody plays the accordion at policemen's funerals. Nobody plays the accordion while marching in formation during parades... that I know of....

Plus your stereotypical bagpipe player (burly Scotsman in a tartan kilt) could easily beat up your stereotypical accordion player (reedy geek in a checked coat).

But as far as I'm concerned they're both good instruments... although if I had to pick one to learn to play it'd be the bagpipes. Sorry accordion, but my Celtic ancestry casts the deciding vote on that one.

(Although I suppose my Italian ancestry could get behind a concertina.)

Mine was acquired by being held up to my game boy, in the bathroom, for better acoustics. It's Calcobrena from FFIV.

Opening theme song for Boondocks

People who have their ringtones as either:

1: The Doodoodoo-doo, Doodoodoo-doo, Doodoodoo-doo doooo Nokia tune. You and every bloody Nokia owner on the train. It's not so hard to change it to something else. DO us all a favour and save yourself the trouble of diving to your coat whenever some other Wally's phones goes off.

I was going to change my ringtone but decided not to. Just to annoy Bob.

It's Bob but there's no new avatar? ftw?
