Some people just want to be an essential part of society, and they will, by God and the baraka of Ramadan. Others want to appear to be cooler than they truly are, but by pretending to be more connected than everyone around them. So they tend to resort to name-dropping and snobbery until you're like: Jeh, nmbading tenkung!
Hello! You can only be cool by being really, really cool; not by using every conversation to imply association or link with some famous person or trending event. My boy Spoonhead does that all the time. He will drop a certain relative's name to act cool like cool runs in the family. Sometimes you wonder how many of his uncles, aunties and cousins aren't fitting examples for every great topic we discuss.
