Is that an inverse proportion or direct proportion? If many people have something does it make it cool? Like those 3-striped adidas shoes that were "cool"....Nowadays even the cleaners in my school own a pair.
I don't think such a criteria is accurate.
Hell, there doesn't exist a criteria that is accurate because coolness is based on one's perception. Like these so-called "cool" people buy these sling bags that are shiny. They think its "cool", I however think its gay and they do look like aunties carrying those bags. |

| Well from those two choices I would have to go with market since the market is what presents people with the commercials to lure us into buying stuff and manipulates people. Although I would really say that you yourself decide what is cool since you have your own opinions on things. |

you can't define "cool"
I think its sad how ppl get so influenced over what's popular among their peers or the media
you know what is "cool"
I think "cool" is doing what YOU like, without any outside influence
"cool" is having the guts to be willing to go against the masses
"cool" is being an individual
I guess you can define "cool" |
