I Think I’m Just Not Cool

Here’s the deal:  I never liked Uggs.  I didn’t own a pashmina.  Skinny jeans and Ed Hardy tees weren’t ever my thing.  I don’t do Kabbalah and I haven’t had twins.  Even growing up, everyone was wearing neon Champion sweatshirts with matching Reebok high-tops and I was all about the feathers on a roach clip worn in my hair.  They wore Z. Cavariccis, I wore Jordache.  For chrissakes, I was passionately in love with Barry Gibb…in, like, 1987.  And today.  I just don’t fit in…never did.

To further illustrate my social ineptness, I think back to the pioneers of music.  I didn’t love them all but they made a difference.  Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley, The Beatles, The Stones.  Who am I forgetting? I’m sure many great artists.  Oh, Duran Duran…total pioneers.  But I watch Miley Cyrus and I just Do.  Not.  Get.  It.  She is the colonic of the pop world…everybody thinks she’s great and I just remain confused as to her purpose.

Here is Miley performing on the U.K. show X Factor Saturday night.
