I think cool is one of the few words whose definition and use are actually really well aligned. What i mean is cool is something that never goes out of style. And the word itself hasn't either while no one says daddio or swell anymore, cool has been around forever.

But that's just in English speaking world.

If we were to use an equivalent term for all cultures would we find similar characteristics? Is there a world commonality to "cool"?

I think cool boils down to mysterious what about you guys?

    just something that's been on my mind for a while

    i found that i could destroy other guys who were propositioning the same girls as i was if i could show that they were uncool and i did that by removing any mystery surrounding them

    Cool doesn't really exist, it's only an opinion?

    I wiki'd cool and got

    Because of the varied and changing connotations of cool, as well its subjective nature, the word has no single meaning. It has associations of composure and self-control




    So I guess it means being a boss like vin diesel
