tshakkboom: Cool Like Duke
"Of course one never snaps one's fingers on the beat, it's considered aggressive. You don't push it, you just let it fall.
If you'd like to be considerably hip, at the same time tilt you left earlobe. And if you're cooler than that, then of course you tilt the left earlobe on the beat and snap the fingers on the after-beat. And then you really don't care. And so by routining one's finger snapping and choreographing one's earlobe-tilting, you can become as cool as one wishes to be"
