20% cooler. The other 80%?

We always say we're 20% cooler.

What about the other 80%?

For me it would be 20% cool, 30% swag, and 50% pure sexiness.

 

What about your other your other 80%?

But, that isn't how the phrase works. It's not saying that the coolness is 20% of the whole. It means the coolness in question is 1.2x the coolness of something else in comparison.

Technically, "%20 cooler" means "120% of the coolness of something." So you take a fifth of the coolness of something and you add that amount back on to the original. Which is interesting, actually, because it means if something is not very cool to begin with, it won't have much coolness added on to it, just a little bit, but if something is already really cool, then it gets a huge boost in coolness. And "20% cooler" only takes into account coolness, it's independent from the amount of swag, sexiness, etc., unless one of those factors has a relationship to the coolness factor, which I don't think they do. Rainbow Dash was clear in "May the best pet win!" that there is a big difference between radicalness and awesomeness, so the same probably goes for coolness, so they are probably unrelated factors.

I believe the phrase is referring to having 100% and then adding 20% on top of that to make it ultra cool.

 

Regardless, 

 

20% cooler

20% ambition

20% luck

20% hard work

20% smart ass

 

:lol:

Well, this is it. We've run out of topics. We've dried the well. We've emptied the barrel. It's over.

 

But, to stay on topic, the 20% isn't part of a whole; it's a 20% increase in coolness. But, to answer the question, the breakdown for me would be:

 

1% evil, 99% hot gas

20% cool

50% unmotivated

25% funny

5% intelligent

Y'know, I've been on this site for almost ten years and I've never had a proper signature. Ain't that something?

There aren't enough brohoofs in the world for this post.

20% cooler, 10% artistic, 70% lazy.

Dash isn't lazy, she's saving the universe by postponing entropy. :)

 

Otherwise the the universe would definitely be 20% cooler</nerd joke>
