ITA. It's not just music or books or anything either. It's the whole concept of having to be 'cool'. I get that that's important when you're a teenager and you're still working out who you are, but when you're 30 you should have other priorities.

I had a similar revelation about friends of mine that I had known since high school, and I had always considered them to be cooler than I was, especially this one girl. But now we were looking for a place to have a drink simply to pass the time before her train left. We didn't know anyone or anything in this town, but she still kept insisting this place wasn't cool enough and that place looked trashy and that one was lame and wtf? Just put your ass down and order something, we're not turning this into our regular hang-out.

Then later, it happened to come up that when I was a little girl I was very much a little girl: into pink glittery things, ponies, dresses, make-up, this local male singer, etc. The horrified noises this friend made, I swear. I thought she was joking or exaggerating, because I had been 4 at the time. I was truly baffled. I mean, I knew she had always been proud of that hardass reputation and dismissive of a whole bunch of mainstream things (including stuff I liked), but that was when she was 16. Everyone's an idiot at 16. I figured she would have mellowed a bit, matured.

I was confused for a while after that day, but now I'm actually kind of pleased with myself. I have matured enough so that not everything has to be cool. And that despite her noises I can admit to liking pink and occasionally listening to that singer again. Those are just little things, but the same goes as to what people think about other aspects of my life. I'm never going to be cool, but it's very liberating once you've accepted that.
