Fistbump

033

Margaret thinks that when Ellie holds her hand out like this, she is actually trying to fistbump us.

Which means that Margaret still thinks that fistbumping is cool.

Which means that Margaret still believes me when I tell her that something is cool.

So one person thinks that I know cool, which is one more person than thought so two years ago.*

*Sometimes my nieces admire my taste in things like purses that I give them for presents, but they don’t know (so don’t tell them!) that I go into the store, look at what’s available, think about what my students are carrying that I don’t like, and assume that that must be what’s cool.  When I like it, I figure it must be on its way out.
