Cool? To be or not to be?

Why does everything have to be classified as cool or uncool? What is cool? We have so many definitions of it? When really there is nothing that can be 100 percent agreed on as cool or uncool because everyone has a different perception of what is and what is not. Some people may think getting into a fight is "cool", others may completely dis agree with it. What is percieved to be cool is also affected by age and time.

Our world is rapidly changing and at a young age we may try and conform to the majority, in order to be "cool", then we may go through a phase of trying to be different from everyone else, again to be seen as "cool" and then we may just get to a stage where we really don't care and just want to be ourselves.

With the affect of time however, now at younger ages, children may want to rebel from the majority, the norm, in order to be seen as cool, and not the same as everyone else, and this is due to the culture we live in, and how quickly we all seem to be growing up, due to the media influences around us, which also then links to the whole aspect of this virtual reality that we live in today.

People now even makes jokes if someone hasn't joined facebook for example. "Your uncool if you don't have facebook, facebook is the way forward" etc. Now how uncool is that for someone to even say something like that!

Will we ever discover what really is cool and what is not? The simple answer is No. Just as we will never truly agree on what is wrong and right. We may have laws telling us this, but that doesn't stop us from doing what we as individuals think is right or wrong, what we think is acceptable or unacceptable, and what we think is cool or uncool.
