AboutWhat does the meme depict?
The Cooler Daniel meme features a single image divided into two side-by-side photographs from a school yearbook. On the left, there is a typical portrait of a person named Daniel. On the right, the same person appears again but this time wearing sunglasses, captioned as 'The cooler Daniel.' This meme format is typically used to illustrate a comparison between a standard and an upgraded version of the same thing, person, or concept, with the right side representing the 'cooler' or improved version.
