Note that it is not necessary to copy the public key file to the remote
side; just to include the key in the remote authorized_keys file.

If all you did to the "thecoolone" account was edit the authorized_keys
file, perhaps you messed up the format in doing so? Be careful that each
entry is only one line and does not get broken up by an editor.
