        The coolest. Superior in coolness to all else. Used only when the coolness of something is definitive, classic, the model of coolness in its category or class. As in, Antarctica is the coldest place on earth, so anything which is cool is cool, anything way cool is way cool, but anything antarctic is the coolest.

                  The Antarctic ( or , American English also or ; commonly ) is a polar region around Earths South Pole, opposite the Arctic region around the North Pole. The Antarctic comprises the continent of Antarctica, the Kerguelen Plateau and other island territories located on the Antarctic Plate or south of the Antarctic Convergence. The Antarctic region includes the ice shelves, waters, and all the island territories in the Southern Ocean situated south of the Antarctic Convergence, a zone approximately 32 to 48 km (20 to 30 mi) wide varying in latitude seasonally. The region covers some 20 percent of the Southern Hemisphere, of which 5.5 percent (14 million km2) is the surface area of the Antarctica continent itself. All of the land and ice shelves south of 60°S latitude are administered under the Antarctic Treaty System. Biogeographically, the Antarctic realm is one of eight biogeographic realms of Earths land surface.
