Ever wondered if you're genuinely cool or just another wannabe climbing up the social hierarchy? Time to swap Nandos' fiery Peri-ometer for our ice-cold Cooliometer and discover if you're running hotter than a jalapeño or cooler than a penguin's breakfast!
Our Cool Quiz is based on groundbreaking research from universities across 12 countries (because apparently, coolness cannot be contained by any boundaries.).
Researchers Todd Pezzuti, Caleb Warren, and Jinjie Chen surveyed nearly 6,000 people from Australia to South Korea, from Chile to China, asking: "What does it mean to be cool?"
Their findings? Cool people aren't just good people with better hair products. Whilst there are some overlap there are some differing traits.
According to science, truly cool people are:
Meanwhile, good people are perceived as being more conforming, traditional, and secure.
Introducing the Cooliometer™
We've cranked the dial from Nandos' scorching Peri-ometer all the way down to Antarctic levels of chill. Our 15-question quiz measures your coolness across all scientifically-proven dimensions.
This research was consistent across cultures from Santiago to Seoul—coolness is more universal than complaining about the weather and colder than a British summer.
Ditch the Peri-ometer and step up to the Cooliometer!
🧊 Fair Warning: This Cooliometer may cause a sudden chill—like stepping into an arctic breeze of pure, unfiltered coolness. Proceed with caution!.
Unlike Nandos where "Extra Hot" is the goal, here we're aiming for "Sub-Zero" levels of cool. Think less "sweating through Peri-Peri" and more "needing antifreeze."
Ready to discover if you're ice-cold cool or still stuck on "Lemon & Herb" levels of mild? Take the quiz below! ❄️
