In Reply to: "In a coon's age" posted by George Mason on July 07, 2000 ... As you may know, the "coon" came to mean a whole different thing unrelated to expression "in a coon's age." Coon was first a term for a white person from the country, then it became an insulting term for a black person.

The phrase in the subject is in the database as to meaning, but not origin. Is it referring to the age of a racoon, and if so, why? Are racoons long-lived? Or, is it a use of the disparaging term for black persons, and therefore to be avoided? ... Re: Coon ESC 09/30/00 (0)

Ever heard someone say: “Hey, I haven’t gone out with my friends in over a coon’s age” and had no clue what they were talking about? ... And then you assumed in that context it was used as a racial slur, so you thought “Who the heck is this guy?!?! The local Grand Dragon?!?” ... I guess the jury is out on this one.

A coon's age? How long do coons live anyway and who would know? It is funny that you would ask that and now I may lose sleep wondering. LOL I might as well have something to blame for my usual lack of sleep. I won't tell a lot of folks that though as I might get the reputation for being strange!
