What the hell makes something cool? The idea of "cool" has no solid meaning or example because it changes. Cool use to be when a person is rich and is able to get whatever he or she wants. Now it seems like being a minority is cool. "cool" can change not only during a time, but it can change from different places are well. Whats cool here may be viewed as being an idiot or a fool in another place. And of course people have different views of cool as well.
Like someone said in class, "being cool is accepted being different." If you act different or see things differently, the only way you can be cool seems to be if you are accepted for it. Otherwise you are viewed as weird, an oddball, etc. I also feel that being cool is just pretending. All those movies and television shows say that in order to be cool you have to act like yourself...it seems like a coincidence that all the people everyone around them look up to them.
