Normally raccoons normally live roughly 5-6 years in the wild. However once in awhile you will find a big grizzly one that is about 15-16 years old. This my friends, is what you call a "coon's age".

I've had that dog for a coons age, I wouldn't give it up.

Coons Age

A coons age is any time frame that has taken place in the past regardless of duration. This way you can drop country swag to identify and period of past time frame.

The english language needs more words like Fuck, interchangeable and always fits into any context. I havent updated this fucking website in a coons age, even though i just did.

That's the kind of coons age swag droppage this country needs.

i reckon i haven't been to the bar in a coons age.

city chicken

A food native to Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania in which cubes of pork and/or veal are put on a short, wooden skewer, breaded, then baked and/or fried.

I've heard that city chicken originated during the Great Depression, when folks didn't have enough money to buy full cuts of meat, so they assembled meat scraps on a wooden skewer, creating a make-shift drumstick. Hence the name.

Are yinz havin' city chicken for dinner?
