It's the Tarantino/Spielberg lovers who resort to this flimsy argument in
order to efface various criticisms of these artists and their HYPE. But I'll
answer this question myself, personally, as a Tarantino/Spielberg basher:

I already comprehend my coolness. Whether you do or not is not my problem. It
is not my coolness which is offended by the two above, it's definitely
something else.

There, feel better? 

The next person that puts David Lynch and Babwa Striesand in the same
sentence will receive one thorough ass-kicking from  me or Zen Karate Master
Mittelwerk.
