Get the formerlymug. A fictional place coined by singer/songwriter Rickie Lee Jones in 1979. Coolsville is largely populated with colorful characters both hopeless and hopeful, the disenfranchised, the down-and-out, hipsters, bohemians, junkies, artists, and what not. Coolsville is a place of hard redemption. It can also be used as an adjective and verb.
"The real thing come and the real thing go/The real thing is back in town/Ask me if you want to know the way to Coolsville." - Rickie Lee Jones
