The long lost art of placing a stick-mag inside a copy of a novel so as to appear to be reading distinguished literature, but in reality providing one with the oppurtunity to further indulge in depravity.
My English teacher was rediculously hungover this morning, so he forced us sit and read Othello, which I book-jacketed with a vintage 1991 copy of Asian Dolls.

to never fully understand where your favourite jacket is and why some weird dude is wearing it in a picture.

a jacket/coat a girl wears that belongs to her boyfriend. she'll make up any excuse (the most common, "i'm cold!") to get her boy to give her his jacket, so she can wear it everywhere and sleep with it, therefore being surrounded by his scent where-ever she goes. then it starts smelling like her and she gives it back for a while.
jackie-"why is kelly wearing that? it's way too big for her"
stacy-"oh, that's just her boyfriend jacket. she's had it since saturday"

When a male tricks onlookers into thinking that his hands are in his jacket together (interlocking the ends of both sleeve holes) while simultaneously using one arm to jack it hard.
Female Onlooker : OMG, look at Lyle, he is so Jacketing off right now in the corner.
Male Onlooker: No I don't think so, he's just really cold and has both his sleeves connecting to keep in the warmth.

A Harrington jacket is a type of short, lightweight jacket, made of cotton, polyester, wool or suede — usually with a tartan or check-patterned lining.
The first Harrington-style jackets were made by British clothing company Baracuta in the 1930s. As of 2008, the company still makes the same model, the G9. Elvis Presley popularized the Baracuta G9 when he wore it in his 1958 movie King Creole. This style of jacket earned the nickname Harrington because it was worn by the character Rodney Harrington (played by Ryan O'Neal) in the 1960s television program Peyton Place; John Simmons, who opened 'The Ivy Shop', Richmond, London, claims to have coined this description.
They have became popular in the 60's onwards with mods and skinheads.
