What is the definition of “cool”?
Main Post:
So this is a tougher question than you think. Most of the definitions of cool have to do with temperature. What I want to know is how do you define the word cool when in reference to a person or persons. My first guess was “popular” but there are millions of “cool” people who weren’t popular. For example was Lou reed cool in the beginning? When his record sold 30,000 units and everyone that bought it started a band? Yes the velvet underground and Nico were very cool, not popular. My best definition is, “interesting in a positive way”.
Top Comment: Its a combination of things. One is being self-assured. So not caring about what others think of one's self-expression while also not being obnoxious about it. The other is not being easily offended and remaining composed when handling challenging social situations.

What makes some people appear "cool" and others not?
Main Post:
I've always seen "cool" people, but today I wondered what makes such people appear "cool". I've thought about it yet I can't seem to put my finger on it. So I'm asking, what makes someone look "cool" according to society I guess?
Top Comment: It really is confidence more than anything else. People who are clearly comfortable in their own skin, not particularly bothered by other people but pretty good at interacting with them. Being subtly their unique selves just to prove the point.
