One of the strongest moves to make yourself look cool as hell is to leave a nice variety of past issues of Rolling Stone splayed across your coffee table. It's not really about actually reading any of them, not even flipping through them — it's all about that cover photo.
Sure, people like Hunter S. Thompson, Tom Wolfe, Lester Bangs, and Cameron Crowe have written for the hugely influential publication, but who cares? Show me a rockstar doing a cool pose on the cover. That's literally all I'm looking for.
