Oh, my apologies, I didn't meant to jump off the top ropes to defend pop culture etc. And absolutely, all sorts of routes to cool.
That being said, I'm a middle age man and am thus by classic definition, the anti cool.
Believe me, I have an over abundance of confidence, I know I'm cool in all the things that matter. But I also know that my time at the cultural forefront (whether your culture is pop, punk, underground, whatever) has passed, that's off to the next generation.
I think of it like, while I still go to some of the larger underground events, I'm not one of the tastemakers that some of my friends were in our youth etc and I damn well won't have heard of any of the bands but on the other hand, I am at the point where I can help out by buying all the merch.
