I hit on this earlier to-night long before I saw this article or drank those adult beverages.
The word "cool" goes back to ADULT jazzboes. It was the word of a hipster. Can an adolescent be cool? Can an adolescent understand the blooze? Without life experience, capital, and other adult "realities", can they be "experienced"?
Buying into the latest trend is not a sign of "cool". That is "trendy" and "style conscious". Cool is eternal and who hits on that so early in life without at least a little guidence or dumb luck? I credit my dad and upbringin in NW Ohio for a little of each but also a desire for something I just was not getting from Kiss, Air Supply, Styx, and Crystle Gayle.
Rock and Roll PING!
