Finally, Scientists crack the code over what makes us cool...
Basing their research on the notion that cool is being attractive and desirable and not unwanted, Ilan Dar-Nimrod, who works at the University of Rochester Medical Center and his friend, Ian Hansen of York Collegecame to their scientific conclusions
'We wanted to tease apart coolness and social desirability,' said Dar-Nirmrod
'There is a lot of overlap between social desirability and coolness.'
Indeed, the majority of responses that the two psychologists received as words to describe cool focused primarily on appearance.
They saw cool being equated as 'hot', 'handsome', 'beautiful' and 'sexy', revealing an overwhelming theme of simple physical looks.
Aside from good looks, the researchers expected to find rebelliousness to be a cool trait, reminiscent of a James Dean.
What they discovered instead was that the students they used in their study thought that friendliness constitutes cool.
In fact, on top of being good looking and friendly, if you are a high achiever in life then you are moving into ice-cold territory.
As well as being generally successful and blessed in life, volunteering to help within society is seen as cool too.
So, it seems that there is no clear answer. What do you think makes you look cool ??

Being a constant copy cat and trying too hard just shows a lot of insecurity and we all know cool=confident.
Humor is cool but needs to be kept in check. Too much and it loses it's appeal.
Being kind and polite even when faced with the most rude and boorish individuals is waaay cool.
The funny thing though is human beings actually find being called contrasting adjectives like "cool" and "hot" to be compliments!
