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 Microwave Oven mug.The stage in a couple's relationship when it is not uncommon that they disappear for days at a time with no contact with the outside world.

Get the Trenched Love mug.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.
