Better than good. Better than cool. The term originated in the Last.fm subforum "Plotters" when an ESL finnish chap made a typo. Everyone thought the typo was itself, gool, and adopted it. Proliferation of the word quicky followed.
"I just found (insert band name)'s vinyl in the used bin! How gool is that?" "Plotters are the goolest."
It's a twist on the words cool and good. It's when something is better than good and cooler than cool
That shit was so gool last night
