pelch

verb: to pelch means to take back a turn you made in a game after your turn has ended (especially after other players have also ended their turns)

Player 3: ...and I will move my piece here and take a victory point.
Pelcher: That's not fair! I didn't know you could do that. In that case I would have moved here instead.
Player 2: Hey, no pelching! You finished your turn and two others have played since then.

pelching

Pelching (or to pelch) is an unfortunate side affect of people who have failed to mature mentally. It is the act of trying to reverse actions taken in a game done by one who cannot fathom the concepts of losing or fair play.

Sylvia: Knight to queen's rook.
Andy: Hey, I didn't see that or I wouldn't have moved my pawn. Give me back by rook.
Sylvia: Hey, no pelching!

pelham memorial high school

Located in Pelham, New York. It's got very mediocre sports teams around the board but the hockey team is known to be elite. The people are nice for the most part and it is easy to make friends. The theatre and newspaper are very good, but these often get overlooked by the many people that act as if they have better things to do than to read or watch a show. Crowds at sports games are carried by a select crowd that is usually more popular. The one difference at Pelham versus many other high schools is it is cool to be a student athlete as oppose to just an athlete. Therefore, aside from the basketball team the athletes are generally very smart.

Despite getting a rep for being heavy drinkers and weed smokers, Pelham does do a good job of staying away from more dangerous drugs such as coke. The "woods" has traditionally been the main drinking spot in Pelham, which is a putting green on split rock golf course. However, cops can be very annoying so it often gets busted so many people have relocated to other places for illegal activities. Parties can be hard to come by as word of mouth leads them to get busted very quickly as well.

Most notable tradition is the Olympics which is a day where all of the grades compete against each other in a wide range of events . The seniors almost always win but the juniors will pull off an upset every 10 years or so.

Pelham

A neat town in deep southern Westchester. You can actually walk to Pelham from the 5-train like I did today. Cool place.

While everyone in Westchester claims to be 10 minutes outside the Bronx, this is literally true for Pelham.

Pelham

A small town in Southern Westchester that is beast but doesn't allow snow days. It also has many pizza parlors and nail salons. No one really knows what it is. Many smart people live in this town. It consists of 3 parts; Pelham Manor, the Village of Pelham, and Pelham. Altogeher they are known as The Pelhams. Their mascot is the Pelham Pelican (pathetic...). Pelham is a chill town to live in.

Dude 1: "What's Pelham?"
Dude 2: "A town stupid."
Dude 1: "Never heard of it."
Dude 2: "You know, it's the one with all the pizzerias?"
Dude 1: "Oh!!!"
