		<description>Yes, you need to try to be powerfully uncool.

reminds me of one of the best Simpsons' episodes ever, "Homerpalooza":

"Bart: Dad! No one cares about any of your stupid dinosaur bands! You
have the worst, lamest taste in music ever.
[turns off the radio]
Homer: I'm just trying to party with you guys.
Bart: Homer, first of all, it's "par-tay", and second, we wouldn't
"par-tay" with you if you were the last dad on Earth."

and

"Homer: So, I realized that being with my family is more important
than being cool.
Bart: Dad, what you just said was powerfully uncool.
Homer: You know what the song says: "It's hip to be square".
Lisa: That song is so lame.
Homer: So lame that it's... cool?
Bart+Lisa: No.
Marge: Am I cool, kids?
Bart+Lisa: No.
Marge: Good. I'm glad. And that's what makes me cool, not caring,
right?
Bart+Lisa: No.
Marge: Well, how the hell do you be cool? I feel like we've tried
everything here.
Homer: Wait, Marge. Maybe if you're truly cool, you don't need to
be told you're cool.
Bart: Well, sure you do.
Lisa: How else would you know?"</description>

		<description>You will be an awesome mom. I think I need to try harder to be a little less cool sometimes. I'm just not embarrassing them enough.</description>

		<description>MJ, you must be a cool mom to have. (I'm sure there are times your kids would disagree, but still.) Hope to parent as well one day myself.</description>
