HW 33 - Cool Paper Outline

Thesis- (I'll change this so it is MY thesis, this is just to start with) 2. Coolness - as a heroic internal narrative and the successful command of attention and social significance - is a basic human need. We need to be cool - what are the best ways for us to do that, individually and collectively?

Argument 1- The differences between actually representing who you truly are and doing whatever it takes to be accepted by others.

Argument 2- Ways that people represent themselves for real ( Tattoos, Hairstyles, choice of attire, etc) AND ways that people use these representations to be fake for the acceptance of others.

Argument 3- Why Cool has become the way it has been and how this can affect a person both positively and negatively.
