as cool as the other side of the pillow

About as cool as a person can possibly be, sort of like James Dean or someone like that, but even cooler. Possibly originated from SportsCenter. Has nothing to do with temperature.

I was as cool as the other side of the pillow back in high school. I used to sit in the back of the class in my leather Harley Davidson jacket and sunglasses, smoking my Marlboro Reds and drinking whiskey out of a silver flask. I'd just sit back there, all laid back across the seat, with my arms around the two hottest girls in the school. The teacher would tell me to put my cigarette out and stop drinking, and I would blow smoke in her face and say, "Make me." But she wouldn't make me because I was just too cool.
No, not really, actually I was a fucking dork who watched Star Trek marathons and still haven't lost my virginity except for my dog that one time.
No, just kidding again, I was pretty normal, but I always used to look at the other side of the pillow and wished that someday I could be that cool. Sadly, it never happened.

"What's up with you and Norah?"

"I don't know man, I really like her but I don't know how she feels. She needs to just take off her cool for a minute so I can see the real her."

cool beans

A slang term that actually began it's use in the late 60's/early 70's. Popularized by the pop culture of the time. Used to describe something very favorable or pleasing. Great. Very nice.

Cheech: Hey man, look at this car made out of weed!
Chong: Oh cool beans, man!

be cool

To chill out, to not act a fool. Using whatever means necessary to avoid drama, confrontations.

"Dude, that guy's mad-dogging me!"
"Be cool, man. He's strapped."
