Solutions with different meanings are always confusing, so let’s get into the meat of the matter with this answer.
‘Not with it’ solution Aug. 27 NYT Mini Crossword
The answer to two down in today’s NYT Mini is “UNHIP,” as in unhip and out of touch with current fashion, music, and general societal trends.
You can be joined at the hip (I know I missed two letters, but it’s close enough), and being considered “Unhip” could result in you being labeled as uncool.

While the solution makes sense, I feel “Unhip” is still slightly out there, and as a result, I give this a three out of five, as solving other clues first can help you.
