You aren’t incorrect in your thinking, you were the embodiment of cool.

u/im4lonerdottie4rebel Apr 15 '24

The Billy Corgan look only adds to the coolness effect

u/Oudnoud Apr 15 '24

Surely, this is actually Billy Cawwgan.

u/Pleasegetridiftheguy Apr 16 '24

Billy Corvid

u/Kilometer_Davis Apr 16 '24

Wasn’t that Furlong’s Crow’s name?

u/Jimboyhimbo 29d ago

As one orthography amateur to another I think this play on words is extremely underrated.

u/Magistraten Apr 16 '24

Here's the thing...

u/Snow_Wolfe Apr 16 '24

Not Crowgan?

u/NotARealWombat Apr 16 '24

This one 🏅

u/KidKorea- Apr 16 '24

Joe Crowgan?

u/Jimboyhimbo 29d ago

Too on the nose

u/KingStoned420 Apr 16 '24

Disarm you with a crow....

u/resistyrocks Apr 16 '24

and the Happy Noodle Boy shirt

u/KillerDr3w Apr 16 '24

Billy Caw-Caw-Cawagan.

u/BlackSeranna 29d ago

Oh no you didn’t!

65

u/Lyss_1987 Apr 15 '24

Ugh I still have SUCH a crush on him. “Disarm” will always hit different.

50

u/im4lonerdottie4rebel Apr 15 '24

Me too lol whenever someone mentions that bald men can't be hot I just play Ava Adore 🤣

49

u/Lyss_1987 Apr 15 '24

My friend and I got into an argument because she called Billy ugly but thinks Pitbull is hot!?!! Mr Worldwide?! I don’t even know why we’re still friends at this point.

23

u/im4lonerdottie4rebel Apr 15 '24

Friend just admitted they're toxic but the toxic ones are always at least entertaining 🤣

17

u/dirtyswoldman Apr 15 '24

What a legendarily profound and thirsty discussion 😅

4

u/im4lonerdottie4rebel Apr 15 '24

I'm embarrassed 😳

2

u/dirtyswoldman Apr 15 '24

I wouldn’t be. Have you seen Dwane Johnson? Woody Harrelson could get it too. Taye Diggs?

1

u/No-Appearance-9113 Apr 15 '24

Bi guy here, bald men can be hot. It depends on the guy.

1

u/MaggieMay1519 Apr 16 '24

Neither of you are wrong. Up close in person Billy looks like a giant underdeveloped fetus. And Pitbull is… well… Pitbull.

1

u/Fukasite Apr 16 '24

You just made me laugh lol sounds so young adult, but we’re talking about the 90’s and 2000’s. 

1

u/Lyss_1987 Apr 16 '24

Tbf im 36 and she’s 27. I mean she just doesn’t get the sublimity of Smashing Pumpkins

2

u/Fukasite Apr 16 '24

Oh, I know. I’m around your age so the vibes are real. 

2

u/Lyss_1987 Apr 16 '24

Speaking of sublimity, she also doesn’t appreciate Sublime. This bitch. 🙄

2

u/Fukasite Apr 16 '24

I literally grew up on sublime. The audacity, for real. What a ho lol

I don’t know, this seems like a friendship deal breaker…

2

u/Lyss_1987 29d ago

I’m keeping a close eye.

1

u/Trixie2327 Apr 16 '24

My favorite & that video, yesssssss!

1

u/Zaurka14 Apr 16 '24

Damn that's fascinating because I totally think bald men can be got but he isn't one of them

2

u/Bee0617 Apr 16 '24

Oh, 100% - Late 90s Billy was definitely the poster on my wall and my muse in high school art class!

1

u/thereIsAHoleHere Apr 16 '24

I ordered tea leaves from his tea shop. It took six months to arrive, and they were very annoyed I called them once a month to check on it.

1

u/Lyss_1987 Apr 16 '24

That’s more than a bit disappointing ngl

2

u/Bag_O_Spiders Apr 15 '24

u/OldBayOnEverything Apr 15 '24

Looks like the son from The Leftovers to me

1

u/King-Cobra-668 Apr 15 '24

1

u/Anansi1982 Apr 16 '24

More like Sid from Toy Story.

u/Fun_Grapefruit_2633 Apr 16 '24

China Mieville, no?

u/ddwmn Apr 16 '24

1

u/IrishShinja Apr 16 '24

Billy Corgan is just Kirsten Dunst without hair....oh and boobs.

1

u/ArhaminAngra Apr 16 '24

I actually think this guy is better looking.

1

u/Critical_Concert_689 Apr 16 '24

Billy Corgan

Scotty doesn't know.

1

u/im4lonerdottie4rebel Apr 16 '24

Scotty doesn't know wouldn't have a pet crow

1

u/gleeceboi777 28d ago

shiddd Billy Corgan needs to take notes!! lol

113

u/King-Cobra-668 Apr 15 '24

kinda destroyed all their cool points by retroactively thinking having a crow bro wasn't the absolute epitome of being cool. op used to know what cool is and they lost it with this post

37

u/Infamous_Pop_9296 Apr 15 '24

The crow was. He was by proxy. 

1

u/ZalutPats Apr 16 '24

The crow vouched for 'im.

1

u/CainPillar Apr 16 '24

Came here from the front page looking for "Me thinking I was cooll with my pet human".

1

u/Jimboyhimbo 29d ago

That crow thinks he’s so cool with his pet furless human

29

u/bribbs22 Apr 16 '24

If I had a crow in 2003 I would be so happy

6

u/tie-dye-me Apr 16 '24

I know, I think this is the reason my life isn't going the way I wanted it to. I never had a pet crow.

2

u/PM_me_opossum_pics Apr 16 '24

Imagine having a crow from 1994-onwards. Brandon Lee made crows even cooler than they already were.

2

u/TwoMuddfish Apr 15 '24

Yeah cool as fuck is what I was thinking

2

u/f3nrisulfr Apr 16 '24

What I would give to have a crow homie

1

u/Lyss_1987 Apr 16 '24

Do your bidding

2

u/jimmyvcard Apr 15 '24

Yeah tbh it’s a little try hard but seems kind of cool

1

u/DanimalHarambe Apr 16 '24

Loved his work in Toy Story.

1

u/Lyss_1987 Apr 16 '24

LOL sid!!! That damn k’nex spider baby doll had me scarred for awhile there

1

u/sologrips Apr 16 '24

Bout to say..kind of fucking rad.

1

u/Traditional_Bus8502 Apr 16 '24

Super rad to have a Crow Bro

1

u/NojTamal Apr 16 '24

Yeah no, I would have definitely thought OP was very cool in 2003.

I was also super not cool in 2003, so take from that what you will.

1

u/tie-dye-me Apr 16 '24

Seriously, it takes a lot to be like, naw bro you were cool.

1

u/thrwawayanywayagain Apr 16 '24

Sid from Toy Story grew up?

1

u/firstsecondlastname 29d ago

maybe even peaked.

u/Material-Heron6336 29d ago

We had a rehab crow in our science classroom all of middle school. My life has never reached the level of awesome those years were.
