I remember having a beat up old copy of Catalog of Cool in my first bachelor pad in about 1988. My hardcore Goth room-mate, Dave, once looked at it spitefully, commenting with some outrage that "according to this book, anything new wave or from the 50s is cool!".

My response (coolly, of course) was: "and your point?".

Dave went on to open a tattoo shop, and is the guy who did the Maori-inspired honu on my right pec, so he turned out OK anyway.
