uncool

the only true currency in this bankrupt world is what you share with someone else when you're uncool. - the great wisdom of lester bangs. (almost famous, remember?).

i've been thinking a lot about the triumph of the uncool. i often think of myself as uncool. not even in the cool uncool sense, just in the awkward goonies sense. does everyone feel that way? in keeping with my honesty about my uncool-ness, i read john mayer's blog. there, i admitted it, it's one of my guilty pleasures. i think he's a pretty great writer, and i find him more than mildly entertaining. anyway, the point to admitting that, is he once wrote about this whole paradox of being uncool or being cool... if you are interested, read what he had to say...goonies switcharoo
