Harrington Jacket

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.

Golden Harrington

When a coastie male is in the physical act of sexual intercourse, more specifically performing his perfected Chilli Dog or Swedish Periscope maneuver and due to the constant extreme levels of alcohol within his system, just prior to climaxing and spraying his intoxicated maiden or sailor down with his gentleman’s sausage sauce, an uncontrolled golden shower of urine is excreted onto the unsuspecting mates chest.
Coastie Joey had been on a vacation to Cuba and much like most drill weekends, he found himself piss drunk and on a three day drunken bender looking for a young beautiful willing “girl” on island B to cozy up to. They would have a few laughs, perhaps a dance, gallons and gallons of alcohol (any kind will do) and when the moment was just right and the two were sharing the most intimate Chilli Dog sexual act, he rained down with an alcohol, semen and urine filled Golden Harrington onto the chest of his love of the night.

Huntington Beach

City with a history. Has a famous pier that's broken down 7-8 times due to harsh weather. If you're a redneck don't expect to be taken-kindly-to here. Riversiders and tourists who junk up the beach will be verbally "thrashed" by surf lingo until their ears bleed. Main Street is the main hangout spot for the city and you can always find the hot beach babes down there Monday through Sunday. Schools iclude all types of people; from punk to goth to emo to preppy to nerdy to gang-bangers and even normal people. Teachers are usually all old and cranky except a few who are chill from the beach air. Temperature is nice all year 'round with Winter reaching 50's sometimes and summer's hitting 100+. There's anything and everything to do in HB and don't refer to it as "The OC" or you will be shanked. If you like hot women, relaxed people, surfer dudes, night-life fun, and even suburbia come to Huntington Beach.
Surf Lingo:
Gnarly-crazy or cool. EX: "That wave was gnarly!"

Bra'-Not refering to the female undergarment. A slurred version of "Bro" as in "brother/brotha". Means close friend. White equivillant of "homie". EX: "Sha', bra' that was sweet."

Sha'-Slurred version of "yeah". EX: (see above example)

Douche & Jew-Common disses or burns used in HB.

Harrington Park

the smallest, most boring town in the world. home of nature man and dj immense. friday and saturday nights consist of walking around aimlessly with your friends trying to think of something to do, or spending three hours sitting in vera's with a slice of pizza and a coke. everyone's loaded but choose to "live modestly" so you can't tell. we waste our money on buying a $10,000 electrical sign to put outside borough hall, just so we can return it and get less than half the money back. hp is a town where everyone knows everything about each other, and you're considered a badass if you break a bottle outside of jerry's and don't pick it up. the police have nothing better to do than bust people for jaywalking or investigate who wrote the graffiti on the shed outside the school. it's the gayest place ever but you've gotta love it. the end.
-yo man, what are you doing tonight?
-you know, the usual. just chillen around the streets of harrington park, stopping by the cleaners to jack some lollipops. maybe hitting the deli for some mad drinks.
-dude, i'm so there.
