This is the question everyone wants to find the real answer to. What is cool? The only thing about it is that it is always changing. One month some item might be the “cool” thing to get or to have, and then a month later, something new will have come out and then what you have won’t be cool anymore. Sometimes I will be one of those people that if someone has something cool then I will go out and get it myself, but usually I do not really care. If everyone has something but I do not like it or anything then I don’t care I am not going to follow everyone else and get it myself. I only get stuff based off of my opinion and not what other people have to say about it. I will use the example of shoes. I just recently bought a pair and my one friend was saying how he did not like them that he thought his were better or more “cool”. But that really did not bother me in the least. I did not like his shoes at all. I liked mine so much better. And since the shoes I bought were for me, I made sure that I liked them and that’s all that matters to me. I would not care if everyone in the entire world did not like them, I do, and that’s all that matters to me. This whole article reminded me of the south park episode called chinpokomon. It was all about the kids getting new toys and Stan would always get the toys too late, he would get them when they were not cool anymore and the next best toy has already come out and everyone makes fun of him for having the toy that was “so yesterday”
Always glad to see a well-placed South Park reference, Vinnie : )
