groovier

Cooler, more happening

Groovier is the comparative form of groovy, meaning more fashionable, exciting, or excellent.

The word peaked in 1960s counterculture but now sounds dated or ironic: This coffee shop is way groovier than the one downtown.

Sometimes used nostalgically or playfully to evoke retro vibes.
