What slang term will eventually completely replace 'cool' to describe something pleasing.

Lukewarm.

Awesometastical.

Cockholster.

"Dude, you parents are way Cockholster! They got you that Cockholster bike and everything! My parents are way unCockholster."

I've been trying to bring 'funky' back. It's not going well. :(

Funky's good ... I use it. I also use groovy a lot.

No way man, it's gonna be "testicular."
Like "That shirt is so testicular."

Groovy is way more testicular than funky.

Subzero.

Shiny.

Or maybe that's just me. Running joke that with my short attention span shiny objects are enough to distract/delay me. So anything I like I call shiny.

Yeah, and nads could replace rad.

"Dude, that was totally nads!"

Me too. :)

Firefly thinks so too.

The UK has one of my favorites: "The dog's bollocks".

Wonderful phrase. :)

Double Plus Good.

It's the dog's is that phrase :D

Please, Tribesy, post more of your country's slang, no chav lingo though.

In addition to bollocks, another of my favorite UK words for testicles is 'knackers'. In addition, 'knackered' means exhausted.

So one could say, "My knackers are knackered."

:)

Words used to replace "cool" that I've heard with some frequency, either among my friends or in public: "sweet", "tight", "badass" and "ninja" (depending on context). There are probably a few more, but that's all I can think of right now.

ninja means to steal, dude.

as in 'i ninja-ed his book' (pronounced ninjad)

or 'he went all ninja on the bread'

A word that isn't anything like the title of your thread...

My friends actually use it as an adjective. As in, "that movie was so ninja!" etc. I don't use it at all, so you'll have to take it up with them.

...and I'm not a dude. ;)

Shiny.

seconded

already, it replaced cool in most places I frequent where the joy that is Firefly has been spread.

Hoopy, obviously.

Oh, dear.

But the title is so flibbity flobbity floop!

Spiffing. It's due for a comeback.

But the title is so flibbity flobbity floop!
Wah! So horrible...

I vote for "meh"...

Definitely salubrious.

Tragically enough, yes, that's giving cool a run for its money, but only with girls.

Shazamm!
