not hot

Tepid or unfashionable

Not hot describes something lacking heat or warmth, often a polite understatement for cold: The coffee's not hot anymore.

It also means unattractive or unfashionable—the opposite of hot in its slang sense of sexy or trendy: That look is not hot.

In internet culture, "not hot" became a meme phrase for dismissing something as unimpressive or undesirable.
