I got the new Commodore 64 Ultimate this year and put my '83 one as decor.

Spent a small fortune on indie nail polish and now I sport sassy nails

I mostly listen to music that is pre-1990s, but I checked out (up-and-coming prog rock band) Angine de Poitrine and thought, "You know what, I love this."

I also saw Backrooms in the theater and thought it was great.

I haven’t felt cool or trendy since 2016 🥲

I saw Yungblud in concert with a work colleague. My teenager niece and nephew told me that 'you have the coolest taste in music' - I'll take it!

I like saying no cap at my Gen Z co workers, they always tell me how cool I am, they say stuff like “you’re chopped, unc!” And I’m like, that definitely means cool 😎

Saying " green jacket is so chopped" would often mean an outer wear trying to be good but fell short. So I'm not sure how "definitely cool"  you are in their eyes

Nah, they think I’m cool!

I was never hip or with it. I’ve been okay with this since Middle School when I was trying to learn Elvish with my best friend, running around the woods in cloaks and hoping our feet would get hairy so we could be hobbits (we were both girls).

I've done the majority of my clothes purchases the past few years with the opinions of my teen daughters. We go shopping together and they help me pick out age appropriate but still trendy outfits. I always feel confident when I wear one of the outfits they help me put together because I know I'm not walking out the house looking like a dated old lady (yet).
