No I wasn't except maybe grade school where there 12 kids in a class and no-one was cool but there were some who were not cool. I was cool by default that I wasn't not cool. High School being a year younger than everyone else was difficult, Junior prom I didn't have drivers license or car. Good enough to be the only freshman to make the varsity team but then not to letter (Being a four year letterman was cool) you had to play an inning per scheduled game and being a pinch hitter, even if you got a hit, didn't count but half an inning, something my coach was aware of the last game and he had me pinch hit for my position player (outfielder) and I got a hit and he took me out for pinch runner. Never played sports for that coach or school again. College was worst, four years older than most, I was from an age where drugs were things like penicillin and aspirin, when I came back to college on the GI bill (70), I'm the only person in a psychology class who doesn't do "drugs" of some kind. I don't regret it but the only class I ever took I felt part of was ROTC and as a veteran I didn't have to take that class. Grad school I guess I was the weird guy who raced motorcycles in the desert. I come back from two-day thanksgiving break proud of my finish in Barstow to Vegas and the nerds (A word by the 70s and my friends noting my bruised and battered body and general stiffness considered me more of a fool than cool. Being cool then was more work than I wanted to do.
