A city located on the western side of the Hudson River in Albany County, New York with a population of who gives a shit.

The most recent United States census reports that 12.3% of Cohoes is "African American". Upon complaints the census conducted a door-to-door campaign which resulted in an unrecorded change from the original 12.3% to 1.4%. The census bureau workers reported seeing an overwhelming amount of new shoes, fubu and southpole clothing.

Cohoes is widely known for it's habitual tweakers (methamphetamine users), level 3 sex offenders, arsonists, flaming homosexuals, douchebag cops and it's high eastern european population.

In the city's main park you will find a monument dedicated to incest.

Some traditions in Cohoes are getting pregnant before the age of 18, smoking newports and drinking 40's of cheap beer (even while pregnant), pretending to be from Troy, Latham, Waterford, Maplewood or Colonie.

Cohoes is home to a single high school, where gangsters roll up on unsuspecting 'foos' and threaten to steal their fellow students EBT (foodstamps) cards. I say threaten because these gangsters are actually white posers (they pretend to be italian or colored).

In the past decade scientists and physicians alike have become fascinated in an epidemic which has seemingly overtaken the small city. The virus is known as "staring". Rest assured, if you drive through Cohoes you will be stared upon and maybe put into shock by their dirt smudged faces and yellow teeth.
All persons herein mentioned are from or are employed in Cohoes unless otherwise stated.

Person A: Look at the person from Cohoes!
Person B: How do you know they're from Cohoes?
Person A: See definition above!

"It's a sad, sad thing that dental hygiene is non-existent in Cohoes..."

Person B: Nah, my FICA check hasn't come yet...

Person A: Hey man, you got any doritos?
Person B: Nah, my foodstamps haven't come yet...

Person A: Hey man, you got some crystal?
Person B: Hells yes

The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.

The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.

The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.
"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"

"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"

To take something small, that doesn't quite qualify as a theft. Probably from the Danish "skæv" or the Dutch "scheef", both of which are pronounced similarly, meaning "askew, or not quite right'. To change an item's ownership without permission, but only something small and of little worth.
"I skeefed an apple off the neighbor's tree." "I skeefed some chips outta your bag when you looked away." "Don't skeef my chair when I go to the bathroom."
