Modern derivations of "counting coup" include "chatty coup" in which the equivalent of touching and escaping unharmed is to engage your opponent in meaningless casual conversation, until they are helplessly trying unsuccessfully to extract themselves from the conversation, but are unable to do so.
I made the mistake of saying hello to Fred at the grocery store, he quickly had me in a chatty coup.
