You're no square, Bytor. You may be a family man with a good job, but you never turned your back on your true interests because "it was time to leave all that behind."
People who "used to buy records" or "used to go out and see bands" make me the saddest. Stagnation is the sign of true squaredom, and viewing a continued fostering or growth of aesthetic interests (especially if some of those are shared with younger people and their activities) as somehow "juvenile" or something you give up when one reaches a certain age says more than anything about someone's level of squareness. Jobs/families/mortgages are not signs of squareness. Don D. of Borbetomagus is an insurance agent with his own branch in Nyack NY, but he is no square.
