And My Latest Slang Word
The newest slang word that I have termed is...................................
Coolio. I'm not talking about the rapper, I'm just modifying the most popular slang word n the whole world: "Cool". Instead of saying "that's cool", say "that's coolio". It's gimp tight. Pass it 'round.

I wonder how long the word "cool" will still be cool? I can't imagine people going without that word. There is nothing about that word which is timely or faddish, causing it to be an in word with a particular generation or group only, but moreover it is so agreeable and simple yet poignant and soothing that I believe that it has what it takes to last the test of time. It transcends pretense, culture, class, and connotations--all of which I like to refer to as the matrix. The matrix is the ill concieved notions about society, the false pretenses about behavior, learned behavior, and the inflated or exaggerated connotations associated with class. The matrix is real but it only exists in your mind, yet it is continually reaffirmed and strengthened by your friends, your parents, and society as a whole. Hahaha i didn't expect to get off on some super scientific reality dream world matrix madness. The point is that the matrix tells you that you can or can't do certain things, but really you are free to decide fer yerself. It's your world, I'm just a squirrel trying to get a nut. Now, how does the word "cool" fit into all of this? hehe.....peace out.
