Briarcliff

An extremely small town in Westchester County, New York. Briarcliff is known for being snobby, Jewish, and rich. I happen to live in Briarcliff, and I agree with a lot of these stereotypes, but they are very generalized. In Briarcliff, you need to search hard to find decent people. The 7th graders go to a shitload of bar and bat mitzvahs. Many kids the 8th-10th grades are hooked on weed. Briarcliff is filled with cliques. The most stereo-typical Briarcliff kids wear Abercrombie / Hollister / Delia's / Lacoste / Victoria's Secret / Juicy / etc. nearly every day. Their clothes are whatever is in style at the time. The girls all have pin straight hair and are almost always drinking an expensive drink from Starbucks that could easily be bought at the Moonbean Cafe in town, the center of the Manor and a universal smoking spot. The high school recieves Pocantico, Sleepy Hollow, and other town's transfers because their high schools either suck in comparison to Briarcliff's or they don't even have a high school.
In Briarcliff, everyone knows everything about you, and even some things you don't even know about yourself. Usually gossip about yourself is heard by everyone else before you hear it. Some junior was claimed to have a chode and it is still the talk of the school today. Many kids complain about how jappy the town is and how strict the schools are. Although this is true to some extent, the kids are also ignoring the amazing education they are receiving.
Town sucks ass. There are a few crappy shops and restaurants, all of which are highly overpriced and ugly. The youth center, as stated before, is (or used to be at least) a popular smoking spot. Mostly skaters, their girlfriends, and kids who have nowhere else to socialize come to town.
Because of the strictly Jewish / Christian / white population, many freshmen are stunned when black kids transfer into the school. Kids are even more shocked when they are sent off to college and forced to function in the real world, where there are people who are actually struggling with financial issues and are of different racial backgrounds.
If you're from Briarcliff and you meet people from other states/counties and they ask where you're from, you sigh and say Westchester.

Person 1: Where are you from?
Person 2: Briarcliff.
Person 1: Oh, you must be a stuck up bitch...
Person 2: No, actually, I'm not. Rare, I know.

chimpoo

The act of farting and sneezing at the same time. Those who do this are highly skilled.

At the dinner table, we heard a sound similar to a motor boat; we then realized that Kelly had done a chimpoo.
