1990 Janes Addiction in alt.rock-n-roll.metal (Usenet newsgroup) 13 Oct. Janes Addiction is some kewl stuff. Not quite metal, not quit[e] modern, just good solid Rock n Roll.

1995 New Scientist 18 Nov. 40/1 It's all there in the public chat that's flying around from all corners of San Francisco on SFNet, the citywide computer network where the ‘kewl’ people hang out.

2000 N.Y. Mag. 3 Apr. 6/1 The Net is no longer just for teens who think it's ‘kewl’ to paint cyber-body hair on cyber-figures.

2005 New Musical Express 16 Apr. 31/3 I don't see the point in the parochial ‘We're so kewl it hurts’ bollocks. We know we're cool, we don't need to prove it to anyone.

2007 K. McCLymer Competition's a Witch i. 2 I was warming the bench. Not the greatest way to gain kewl status at my new school.
