Ok what is cool, why am I not cool? Do i care? well no actually but I thought I would have a bit of fun anyway.

1. Football

Is Cool but don't start learning transfer fees and other such really interesting ins and outs of the clubs if you do then you are instantly recognized as a different type of person a football nut not a bad label but it pulls you away from the status of cool!

2. Music

The most important thing to be cool but it is difficult to get right. Once upon a time it was cool to like Limp Bizkit but they are people who like them are now called Townies definatly not cool, Slipknot is at the moment a cool band (I hate them though) but in the next few months Slipknot fans will be called Townies I can guarentee it as they are becoming too popular!

3. Simpsons

It is cool to like Simpsons very cool you must like the Simpsons to be cool.

4. Girl/boy friends

Having an Ugly boy/girlfriend definatly makes you uncool, being bisexual or homosexual makes you uncool meanwhile not having a girl/boy friend is perfectly acceptable. (I pass that one at least)

5. Intellegence

Being a little clever is perfectly fine e.g. getting 3 or 4 C's at GCSE meanwhile being too clever makes you a "swat" or "geek" this is uncool.

6. Parents

You must hate them to be cool.

7. Pokemon

You must not under any circumstances like Pokemon it is just uncool.

8. Sports

Are ok but being too good or too bad makes you uncool, if you are female you have to hate sports or feel the wraith of uncoolness.

9. Movies

You must like movies others like, if you hated the Matrix you are uncool if you liked Star Wars Episode one you are uncool.

10. Internet

Is cool for porn and buying stuff but mking websites and writing on it is uncool you must not become obsessed with the net.

11. Life

You must hate life and be depressed alot to gain respect in being cool.

12. Games

The one you have been waiting for Games are cool but only a bit. A gang leader will have a Playstation and so will many other followers who one day wish to reach their masters state of cool. A few may own an N64 this is not uncool as then this gang can play multiplayer games. Knowing who made a game, how the industry works or exact release dates is uncool you are a geek.

Look above in more than one occasion I am classed as Uncool well that time has ended now it is time to bring forth a revolution a new "cool" where internet fanatics, serious gamers and Limp Bizkit lovers will run free to rule the world.

Now isn't this topic cool.

cool is a hot day with a cooling breeze
cold is when you get told that it snows alot during the winter where you are.

My definition of cool:

Cool. (adj) 1: fairly cold. 2 calm; not enthusiastic or friendly. 3 (informal) sophisticated; excellent. 4 (informal) emphasizing an amount: (a cool five thousand).

:D

I think cool just means you don't care about what other people think of you.

(But that would include people who didn't wash. And they're not cool, they just stink.)

Ok, people who don't care what people think of them, because they have enough self respect to keep them sane.

(...Hmmm... Still means nothing. People have to respect them for not caring about anything, but that also requires them to actually look after themselves properly. Fancy doing... the test?)

Not... THE test?

(Yes. THE test.)

Ok. Let's go to Fog Chat...

It was infact a rip out of people who judge others sucha s calling them townies or whatever when people go to me "your a Townie" or something I reply "no i'm Chris" then they shut up because i am Chris.

Also what is cool? it is what you like not the nonsense as described above, sounded pathetic because it was supposed to.
