- never ODD OR EVEN -
THE COOL KIDS ASSOCIATION
Stay Hungry and Strong
They’ll tell you “cool” is about status. We know better – it’s about spirit.
The Cool Kids Association isn’t a club. It’s a current.
A quiet rebellion disguised as confidence. A code of presence in a noisy world.
We are the ones who move differently – not faster, not louder, but realer.
We see what others miss. We build what others dream.
We protect the flame when the wind howls.
There are no memberships here – only recognition.
You feel it when you walk in a room and the energy shifts.
You feel it when someone speaks truth and the air gets thick.
You feel it when purpose meets play and everything just clicks.
We are artists, thinkers, builders, believers.
We are students of chaos and architects of calm.
We are the Cool Kids Association –
not because we follow rules,
but because we write them.
THE COOL KIDS ASSOCIATION manifesto
to be spoken out loud
I PLEDGE TO:
1. Embrace my demons — they’re better company than fakes.
I do not fear my shadows; I dance with them.
2. Cut the bullshit — in myself, in others, in the whole damn system.
I breathe in truth, exhale performance.
3. Sharpen my edges — kindness is a weapon, not a weakness.
Soft doesn’t mean small. Gentle doesn’t mean easy to break.
4. Outgrow people — even the ones I love, if they stop evolving.
Growth is loyalty to the self.
5. Trust no dogma — not even this one.
Stay suspicious. Stay awake.
6. Run toward the dark — that’s where the interesting shit grows.
The unknown is my compass, not my cage.
7. Keep my kindness ruthless — no guilt, no grovelling, no wasted energy.
Love is choice, not charity.
8. Stay loyal to the truth — even when it stings, especially when it stings.
Integrity first. Image later.
9. Protect my peace — like it’s the last battery on Earth.
No vampires allowed.
10. Outlast, not out-react — cool isn’t speed, it’s endurance.
Still waters drown noise.
11. Burn what bores me — salt the earth, plant something wild in the ashes.
Creation demands destruction.
12. Die curious, not compliant.
I will leave no echoes of obedience behind.
This is my vow. Cross my heart, steal the moon, so be it
(Pause. Eyes up. Breathe once.)
SHOUT OUT LOUD:
We are the Cool Kids. The ones they warn you about.
CONGRATULATIONS
YOU ARE NOW ONE OF US
