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.

Get the hating ass hoe mug.A bubble of of liberalism in the hellscape of southern Nebraska. Located directly in the middle of a sea of corn this small school exhibits all off the things you don't look for in a college: a dead greek life and party scene, 'roided up ball players that somehow think they are all bound for the pros and manage to pull off losing records in NAIA every year, antisocial and ugly entitled females, and an overall lack of fun. The wonderful array of drugs that can be found on campus are a great way to imagine that you are somewhere else. Drinking away your boredom may also help you throw up the mystery slop that the cafeteria called "chimichangas."

Get the Hastings College mug.Possibly one of the worst high schools on earth, not because of the teachers, but because of the students. You can ask any HHS student with an IQ of over 50, and they'll tell you that about 70% of the school's students are dumbass ghetto kids who are just there until they can drop out.
Despite this unfortunate fact, there are some pretty cool people there. You can tell who they are by the fact that they aren't trying to be part of some retarded group (Ghetto kids, scene faggots, fitted-cap-wearing dumbasses who watch Jersey Shore, etc.)

Conversation you're most likely to hear when walking through the "halls" (they're outside) of Harlingen High School:
Ghetto kid 1: YO NIGGA WHAT IT DO

Ghetto kid 3: AAH THIS NIGGA FUCKIN' WUZZUP IN HERE
You might also hear:

Crowd of dumbass freshmen: LOLOLOLOLOL

Get the tonya harding mug.The worst neighborhood in Vancouver unquestionably. Starts from about Clark St. until Main St (where it turns into West Hastings, a decent business area), the northern border of Chinatown and just south of the port. An uncomfortable place to be anytime where it's unusual to not see someone doing hard drugs on the sidewalk or stumbling around in cloth that doesn't qualify as clothes.
