To Count coup is considered an act of bravery by North American Native Indians.
The ultimate Counting coup scenario, as told by Chief Plenty Coup: To be in declared war with another tribe and by genius stealth or of an outright brazen act to reach his enemy, a warrior had avoided death by flying arrows from afar, spears chucked while in close, even while in the death zone of the intended coup victim's now attacking and slashing knife. This is when the said warrior now slaps his knife wielding enemy on the face and then manages to flee unharmed. The red faced victim of Counted coup is now the embarrassment of his tribe.
To the Anglo-Saxon world an act of Counting coup would be considered an act of glory seeking stupidity. As an example: It would be like getting in a boxing match with Mike Tyson after having just slapped him up-side the face in the pre-bout introductions. On the other hand, if Mike Tyson wanted to even-up on the Counting coup score card, he would toy with this opponent until the last round, and then bite the ear off the side of the opponent's head five seconds before the end of the fight!

Get the Counting coup mug.As noted by New York City Street Police: Taking place in winter, this beat cop coined phrase is metaphorical in meaning, yet actually functional of purpose if conditions right:
This stupid human trick requires a minimum of four unknowing participants and one sleepy-head street dealer of flake cocaine. The phenomena usually takes place on the third calender day of the month, which of course is welfare, disability and social security check arrival time. It is during a blowing snowstorm that four or more appropriately attired individuals wait for said drug dealer. They stand at a light post in an orderly first come first served line. This arrangement, in effect, duplicates the function of a rural snow collecting drift fence.

There is only one known worse situation than being condemned to adopted smurffdom. This added predicament comes instantly to mind, when recognized, is that the victim must face the world as a freckle-faced, red-headed, adopted step-child!

Get the Smurffed Adoptee mug.Put them in the drink..., Shoot them out of the sky..., Give them a Mitsubishi Migraine that they'll soon forget. These are all terms heard during the South Pacific Theater in WWII. In this case, each one called for the downing of Japanese Zero Fighter Planes. "Splash the Zeros" was the phrase used in the movie, "The Final Countdown."
This "Splash" phrase and "These pretzels are making me thirsty" are opposite in meaning, but same of outcome for the intended purpose. See 'These pretzels are... in This Urban Dictionary' To splash the Zeros' is a privilege for the Urban Dictionary Editor who lives for the rejecting of idiotic and arcane stupidness reflected in most suggested definitions.

Get the Osama Pa Ti mug.To let roam with subjectivity or to be homogenized as a collective rest? That is the question! This term I have coined in show of support for Commerce URBAN. In theory URBAN's each and every offered product base availability on its own merit. Although the standard is set mighty low on the "In" side, we do live in a free speech country. Salutes to Urban Dictionary for allowing all to take an at-bat or in some cases, many at-bats. Truth, Humor and Gold are all found by eyes that don't lie. Gravy111
