"Cool – its earliest slang meaning dates to 1728, to describe large sums of money, a usage still in circulation. It started to mean ‘calmly audacious’ in 1825, and ‘fashionable’ in 1933."

- Flavorwire tracks down the origins of “cool” and other famous slang words. They missed “fun” (1699), “pop” (1862), and “hipster” (1941), as well as “snark” (1874, courtesy of Lewis Carroll). (via explore-blog)
