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!

Ladies and Gentleman this is the finest Counting coup strategy and deployment I have ever seen! There is simply no recourse!

This definition is accredited by means of going directly to the source of "Witty Banter" - England.
According to newly researched anthropological studies across the Big Pond, this form of human communication is best deciphered by its mood altering characteristics.
It is while playing Badminton, when two strictly Protestant, English homosexual men or women increase their sexual drive by striking at the "Birdie" and at the same time say something nuanced of their forthcoming and imminent carnal encounter. These statements describing said act, increase both subject's hormonal activity, which can then be monitored by the guttural inflection of voice.

Said one anthropology student to another, "Their exchange of witty banter could almost consider as orgasmic in deployment!"

This is fun with terminology. The term is used to get a point of apocalyptic emphasis across, scare grandma, and yet do away with the long winded saying, "Put my ham and cheese sandwich in the microwave oven." A simple "Nuke this!" will do. Guaranteed is that no one will misinterpret this abbreviated sentence and turn on the oven gas burner. Of course, grandma may feel the urge to bean her grandson over the head with a metal hot plate! It seems that many a World War II "Flame Thrower' veteran may have used a similar meaning word with "grandma" during the Cuban Missile Crisis in the sixties!

Ummpa, ummpa; this is us, and this shamelessly referenced Willy Wonka Gobstopping ploy might just work in an effort to keep a child from being Baby-Sklarred for life! See Urban Dictionary definition for Baby Glommer.
A New Jersey and other States - post infant adoption term used to describe the psychological trauma endured by a two year old adoptee whose adopted status was court ordered to its disruption or overturning. To said child it is irrelevant as to who retains eventual fault. The general reason for this occurrence is primarily due to low standard of adoption attorney ethics. N.J. State adoption statute N.J.S.A. 9: 3-39 1 b, c allows this type of skandalous working platform.

A character in the American movie classic, “Grease.”: This acting role required a part played with a vigorous, tough no nonsense approach. This is because “Rizzo” is the shot-calling leader of a high school gang called, “The Pinks”…, yes I know, the pinks; has it been mentioned that Rizzo is a girl? Rizzo likes to drink, smoke and generally wants too, the things that fancy a boy’s desire…, other girls’ maybe? These nuances can easily verify with a thirty first screening of the movie..., that is, unless your person only recently snapped out of a thirty year coma!
Nonetheless, now is when this Urban Dictionary allows for a more penetrating definition of character role. It was some thirty odd years ago when a young actress named Stockard Channing won this acting nod.
Uncannily, in this same self awareness book, there is another personalized description of an actress that eerily names as “Stockyard Channing.” Can it be that there is a connection here? If one reads the reason for this person being referred to as term, this now quasi game show interpretation seems all the more plausible.

This Phrase epitomizes that to which we have evolved...
If that's what it takes, I can stop the walk and talk the talk like a man all the day long
Or at the drop of a hat, go shopping into the midnight hours..., over at Overstock.com.
I'm just one of the Cyberspace Transgendered..., searching for some internet fun!
...And just take a look at me, you can't see me..., so run tell that...,
I'm an either or... Maybe, even a Cybot that forget from where we come.
The world is an Ad-Hockey Horror Picture Show, tripping in the time warp of our virtually never setting sun!

A quandary of time the German Wermacht had to face in the afternoon after their morning's rollover of France. Also an Alan Hopkins movie, which settings and plot occurred in English castle life found to be nuanced of aristocratic Nazi favoritism. These too, had to decide what to do with the remains of the day.
