After reading these definitions for "cool" I realize many people think "cool" is something totally different than it was 30 years ago. Cool started out as unique, everlasting, and epic. Now it's thrashed around as Popular, rad, and such other mindless garb. You should talk to an older person about what cool was 30 years ago.

-Andee bought these cool pants from the thrift store, meaning noone else would be ever where it.

-I made this shirt. It's cool.

cool

Perhaps the ultimate slang word. It's origins are amongst African-American culture and became mainstream after Jazz broke out into popularity in the 20s and 30s. The word actually has nothing to do with the English term "cool" but is actually derived from the West African term "kule". Don't believe me? Search wikipedia.

Some dumbass motherfuckers spell it "kewl" when they chat online. What fools.
