anyone who has any consciousness about their cool factor is by definition not cool.

This is stupid. It's pretty obvious that anyone who thinks this is true is socially awkward and desperate to rationalize their utter uncoolness.

It's a social currency and has its uses, often more than money depending on the context. I'm also interested in the idea on a sociological level. I'm not trying to be the Fonz or anything when I wake up if that was the initial question...

I thought 'icebox' was aussie slang for asylum. Or was that Icehouse. OR maybe Icehouse was a one-hit wonder from Oz.

I thought icebox was a dead woman's vagine?
