    Agreed - that was painful to listen to! What a bell-end.

    Ed Snowden.

    Obama is still pretty cool, will be even more so when he quits and starts doing the circuits.

    Marty Morrisey, of course.

    I've said it before and i'll say it again...

    There is nobody as cool on this earth as a cool black man. Look at Lenny Kravitz and name me a similar aged white man with the same level of coolness.

    I even see the young black lads from the local school - they couldn't be cooler if they tried. Then I see a spotty, bad haired young white fellow and i think "you haven't a hope of getting a girlfriend because that young fellow beside you will hoover up the talent".

    Bjork. Unique, authentically strange and aloof.

    Also another female -and many will disagree with me I'm sure- who is cool is Sinead O'Connor. Madder than a sack of Peruvian spiders, but is always herself, proved correct in many things despite being pilloried and had an attitude of 'kiss my ass' while doing so.

    Agreed! Thierry Henry, on sky sports, discussing 'hand ball' decisions in premier league matches, is about as far from 'cool' as you can get.

    As for who's cool? Meh, I'm not sure...

    Sports wise - Jamie redknapp is a cool dude. Michael Jordan was the coolest!

    Movies - James McEvoy is pretty slick. Del Torro. Pacino.

    Tv - jimmy fallon is one cool cat. That fresh prince parody on FB tonight is quality.

    Music - Andrew Hozier Byrne is so damn cool, in the flesh - and he doesn't even know it.

    I'm starting to sound gay now... Laters

    Neither.

    My mate is a 6ft 2 black man who just has a coolness that none of the rest of us lads could come close to. At my wedding the women were practically falling over themselves to talk to him.

    I look at famous black men like Lenny Kravitz, Samuel L Jackson and Denzel Washington and there is a coolness that very few, if any white men of a similar age could hope to achieve.

    Just my opinion - no malice or immaturity there.

    This became received wisdom on foot of his performance in Pulp Fiction (1994).

    The amount of crud he's shown up in subsequently has long since run the cool well dry.
