    I met Johnny Depp in Liverpool. He was there with Johnny Vegas. I was sitting at the bar with a mate when in walked Johnny Vegas along with this guy in a hoodie. They sat next to us at the bar. After a few minutes the guy took his hood down and it was Mr. Depp. He was cool as f**k and we shared a few jokes with them.

    Depp seems to have a wide circle from what i've noticed from the media and other places. Kinda makes him cooler...

    I get references.

    Ronnie Wood asking me for a smoke ( cool )
    Ronnie Wood asking for a second smoke ( not cool ) told him to f,o and buy some

    Had a chip fight with him and his buddies.
    We were drunk teenagers and were being complete and utter ****.
    He saw the funny side of it.
    He really is a cool bastard.

    In saying that, he's not as cool as his buddies' ex wife.
    Jerry Hall is the coolest person I've ever met.
    Down to earth and classy as ****. Actually, classier than ****, because **** isn't really classy.
    She's the epitome of cool.

    I work with the coolest guy ever. When I've had a few drinks, and he's rolling out a self-deprecating anecdote about his exceptionally cool past, my party piece is to tell him that he's our Don Draper.
    On a day-to-day basis, he is a dream to work with. I had to do a very small, slightly tedious job for him yesterday. He strolled over to my desk, complimented me on my recent haircut, and gave me a short briefing on what he wanted done, all issued in a tone that said, "Hey, we'll play along with this charade of me being boss, but I *know* you'll do this perfectly."
    You can keep your Cantonas, your Ronnie Woods and your Jonny Depps - in my book, somebody who can, day after day, get the job done and make everyone feel better about themselves is a star...

    Jim McCann. Meself and the brother ended up on an unmerciful bender with him and his soundman (no pun intended) one Tuesday morning in a pub that could seat over 100 people and we were the only four people there.

    Had no idea who he was. It wasn't until after four pints, when I tried to start a ballad session, that me brother dragged me aside, and explained to me why they were laughing, when i asked them did they know the words to Raglan Road?:o

    Coolest guy in the world. And funny as fcuk. We all got burgers as a bit of soakage at lunchtime, which I thought were quite nice;

    Jim McCann (taking a huge bite): " I wouldn't give that to my dog"

    Me (enjoying a huge bite): "Why not?":confused:

    Jim McCann: "To spite him." (Takes another huge bite with relish).:cool:

    Coolest man ever.

    Two German motorbike cops in their leathers. One of them was blond, 6'6" and built and the other one was dark, 6'4" and rangy. Very cool to a pair of Irish teens. Unfortunately, mine (the blond) blew it when he told me his wife didn't understand him. :D

    So who's the coolest person you know personally / have met? (Doesn't have to be anyone famous or anything)

    After 6 pints of beer I need only look in the mirror.

    Even when I wake up the next morning with that hungover drunkness, Im still like, wow, how awesome am I.

    My seven-year-old nephew Tiarnán. Last winter when the roads were really icy I skidded the car and he was in the back with his three (younger) first cousins. They started crying one after the other and Tiarnán turned around and calmed them down by distracting them by playing games and singing while I tried to get the car out of the ice. This went on for a good 20 minutes. When we got home and they were out of sight he burst out crying to me. My hero!

    Wow. After a post like that, is it alright for me to confess that I thought my bro was even cooler than Jim McCann?

    mick o connell when i was 14
    he was ancient and jumped the gate
    on the way into the gaa field..

    Jason McAteer in HMV the day before that game against holland. I asked him if we'd win tomorrow, he goes 'of course we will!'
    which is cool for all sorts of reasons
