Why do people think that everyone wants to be "cool"

As the title sugests, I'm just wondering why people assume that everyone wants to be "cool". I'm not trying to start an argument. I really don't care what people think about me although many people do care what people think about them. Now please only post here to try to answer my question, not to just correct what I say. When I say something I mean what I say even if it has no logical meaning.

There's a difference between wanting to be cool and wanting to be popular, you know. The majority of kids at my school who claims they're cool are generally egotistic elitists who act as if they're better than everyone else and think they're too good to talk to people outside of their little clique. That's not cool, that's just being an idiot. Being cool means being popular, which means being liked by most people you know. Not everyone wants to be cool but most people do because being popular counts for practically everything during your life. Especially high school. If you're popular in school, you get invited to the parties, you're liked by the teachers, ect. People often look up to popular kids as gods because that's what they're made out to be.

In my opinion, wanting to be cool is ridiculous. Wanting to be popular is the way to go.
