No I don't think so, maybe sometime.  Some people say to me that I am cool...  but they never say to me that I am as cool as a cucumber... :)  I never hear this idiomes before so if someone telling me this  I will probably thought why they say to me that I am a cucumber...but now I know...

I think it mostly depends on life experience that we pick up after having been in real situations. The more we have, the more we are as cool as a cucumber :)
