I think that people who are informed, rational, opinionated and not afraid to tell the truth regardless of how unpopular or "politically-correct" it may be are cool. Chaim is cool. Rabbi Kahane zt"l was cool. Knowledge is cool. Morality and decency is cool. Standing for principles is cool.

"cool" doesn't stress great moral principles.

James Bond is another, a distant second to The Fonz.

Looking decent is the best way to dress.
Be modest.

A cool person can have a few meanings:

one is when one lacks the showing of his passion...he's cool and calm..

A cool person is someone who goes against the status quo and with great confidence and looks good doing it...

A cool person can be someone who he probably get hypothermia if the temperature was 10 degrees less.

A cool person can be someone who's comfortable

AsheDina:
Cool just means that you are loyal.  So am I screwed up? When I say a person is 'cool with me' that means that I think they are 'loyal' and I might trust them, but usually I dont use any slang- but that is what I said as a 20 yr old person.
