Get the Chappaqua mug.Related Words
A hamlet in northern Westchester County, New York, replete, unfortunately, with illiterate antisemitic ingrates. A quiet, low-crime, high achievement enclave a short train ride away from any excitement, bustle, or, if you prefer, depravity.
I failed my preschool SAT's and can't get into private school, with its $30,000 per year per child tuition, and my low I.Q. put Stuyvesant out of reach, so my family had to move to Chappaqua.

Get the Chappaqua mug.the richest town in Northern Westchester. Home to JAPs, jews, and maybe 2 black families. The public schools are more like private schools and the houses are bigger than the apartment buildings in NYC. The high school parking lot has nicer cars than all of the facility put together. Little 4-year-old girls are wearing designer clothes from head to toe, let alone high schoolers. All of the guys customize their shoes and buy new pairs every week. Summers are spent at camp and in the hamptons, winters in Aspen and the caribbian. In the 7th and 8th Grade Bar/Bat Mitzvahs take up all of the weekends with more than 150 to go to. Most often than not, only the father works and he brings in more money to take care of 50 other families in the town. All through high school, there are many parties attended where all the kids get wasted and are high. Every girl falls for every guy and is a total whore and slut. No parent cares what their child is doing on a friday and saturday nights, even if they are drinking and getting high. Chappaqua is the most spoiled town in Northern Westchester.

Get the Chappaquiddick Special mug.A dangerous game played by witches and wizards while riding in Oldsmobile Delmont 88 sedans; da game consists of players' trying to swiftly traverse a narrow unlit bridge at nighttime, without falling off da edge.
I dunno if Ted Kennedy and/or Mary Jo Kopechne were attempting an impromptu game of "chappaquidditch" on that fateful night in mid-July of 1969, but I cannot see how they would have even known about da game at dat time, since da "Harry Potter" authoress had only been born less than four years earlier, and so she could not possibly have started writing her famous novels till much later.
