Titera's Tidbit: Nonchalant
A "nonchalant" person is unflappable, imperturbable, and otherwise hard to rile. In an emergency, such a cool head can be valuable, but most times a "nonchalant person" can't be bothered, and that can be annoying. The word comes from the Latin non + calere, meaning "can't be heated up".
