Um, pie-eating? Maybe that is considered a sport, now. Crossword puzzles. Spelling. Turkey-calling.
Boxed Set, Vol. 1: Smallville, Due South, Farscape
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much anything else that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Chess champion? (Possibly for rather geeky values of cool, but I like it.)
but I've never gotten that sizzling vibe off him that so many Highlander fans do
Admittedly, a large part of the appeal is the way he looks at McLeod.
There are geography bees that you can be champion of.
Of course, you can be the champion in the sense of fighting for this cause or that. Is that what you mean?
I have never thought of turkey calling as cool, so I guess I understand how dorky the trampoline is considered.
But could you really look a pretty fifteen year old Welsh boy in the eyes and tell him that? Are you that cold?
Peter Wingfield as the Goa'uld (OMG, I've been away from SG fangirliness too long, for I cannot remember if I've got my apostrophe in the right spot) didn't strike me as hot AT ALL, despite the fact that physically, there wasn't much difference between him and Methos, glowy eyes excepted. I often wondered whether it was because they didn't let him speak in his own voice, which is nummy.

I think, ita, the phrase you are looking for is, "You! Bounce on down offa there and into my pants."
I am not especially particular to the guy, so I would just ask him to bounce towards someplace where I would be confident he wouldn't hit his noggin on the ceiling.
"You! Bounce on down offa there and into my pants."
Okay, eww, I don't say things like that to fifteen year olds.
For the record.
Okay, not fifteen. (I forgive a 15 year old far more in the dorky sports department, but in my mind's eye he is an adult.)
(My god, what would someone that tall and skinny look like as an adolescent?? He would fit inside a pair of pants with room for a whole nother person. In a non-porny way.)
Eh -- I know enough guys who ended up 6' and his apparent size (well, smaller -- he's pretty buff) and were perfectly normal (if lean) teenagers.
