I'm sure my opinion lies right in the middle of the whole "Tiki Must Be Pure" VS. "Tiki Can't Be Pure" Debate and have no intention of ever entering this debate again.

But can we all at least agree that the term "koolkids" is the most annoying and dismissive term ever invented?

What is this, High School?!?!?!

I keep reading it here, and it drives me crazy!

To anyone who uses that term, and its equally silly brother "clique"

THERE IS NO SECRET CADRE OUT THERE PLOTTING TO DISAGREE WITH YOU.

In communities, some people agree with each other, some disagree. Applying the term "koolkids", or "clique" to a group of people who happen to agree on something, only displays your paranoia, or some past hang up about being the last one called for dodge ball or something.

And Yes sensible readers out there, I know you're about to make the point that I just guaranteed a never ending use of the term koolkids by this post, but I had to say it! (even though I know you're right) I just couldn't take it any more!!!!

Oh, the original topic, nah, Oingo Boingo isn't Tiki to me, and I love little girls.
