"Behind every awful, dangerous decision lurks one evil beast: the Cool. From politics to the personal, from fashion to food, from the campus to the locker room, the desire to be cool has infected all aspects of our lives. At its most harmless, it is annoying. At its worst, it is deadly, on a massive scale. The Cool are the termites of life, infiltrating every nook and cranny and destroying it from within. The Cool report the news, write the scripts, teach our children, run our government--and each day they pass judgment on those who don't worship their coolness. The cool fawn over terrorists, mock the military, and denigrate employers. They are, in short, awful people. In Not Cool, Greg Gutfeld, host of Red Eye and cohost of The Five, and bestselling author of The Joy Of Hate, lays out the battle plan for reclaiming the real American ideal of cool (building businesses, protecting freedom at home and abroad, taking responsibility for your actions, and leaving other people alone to live as they damn well please). Not Cool fights back against the culture of phonies, elitists, and creeps who want your soul. It's not a book, it's a weapon--and one should be armed with it at all times"--… (més)

A little tamer than his RedEye days, yet still the odd asides. Instead of a collection of Greg-ologues, it is an extended series of examples and digressions on how the liberal/progressive/Hollywood/media elite are mouthing cool words to be considered part of the cool clique so they can browbeat and exclude the non-cool. Who are the non-cool? Conservatives, southerners, flyover-countriers, etc. Entertaining and interesting if you like such quick fare. Of course, this came out two years before Trump, and he praises Gavin McInnes, before the advent of the Proud Boys. Wonder what he thinks of these "non-cool people" now? ( )

The only parts that I felt had a takeaway for me were the beginning and the ending. It summarizes what the author is trying to communicate.

The rest of the book felt like a rant of complaints. It didn't feel good reading it. I read a little bit then started skimming through different pages.

The main idea is definitely interesting and I feel it does apply on many social ocassions. Where once I used to feel inferior when meeting someone who considers himself as "cool" it will be little more comfortable for me knowing what he says about these so called cool people. ( )
