This from the article is nicely put:

> “Cool” is fiendish, like a riddle: it cannot be bought, though
it’s enthusiastically sold, and it can’t be claimed without
surrendering its benefits. The more you aspire to be cool, the
more uncool you are likely to be.

I'm cool simply because I don't give a fuck what that article
says or what anyone else thinks.

No one should bother. If you are bothering to become cool, you
can't be cool.

Well I’m 74. I gave up the pursuit of cool decades ago.
