What about the spots that you hang at? The people that you meet? Sure, the defining characteristics change as we get older. But I still meet folks or hear music or wear gear or chill at spots that I consider "cool".

To me, it seemed like you guys completely ransacked the entire idea of "cool". I certainly agree that there are strong elements of fear, imitation and conformity in what's considered by many to be cool. But at the same time, different age/geographical/cultural groups or even sub-cultures have different ideas of what's cool.

Could this be a post to compare & contrast "cool" vs "popular"?
