Humboldt Hack 

The nasty cough someone has after coming to Humboldt County. Results from the ever-present dampness and mold, as well as taking massive bong hits of the finest weed California has to offer.
Jim: (Continuously coughing for a few minutes) Damn, I've had this really bad cough for days.
Tony: Just moved to Arcata, right?
Jim: Yeah.
Tony: That's that Humboldt Hack man. Shit never goes away.

Humboldtian

A person from or residing in Humboldt County, CA and living the North Coast hippie lifestyle. Humboldtians are calm, nurturing people who are somewhat oblivious to the outside world and are all about supporting their local community. A Humboldtian is typically white, works on a local farm or buys veggies from the farmers market, and dresses like they shop in a thrift store of clothes from the 1990's. Humboldtian students are passionate about biology, natural resources, and art and value weirdness and uniqueness above all else. Humboldtians care so much about the environment that they get upset when the temperature is above 70 degrees because "it's not good for the area."
"She makes her own soap, raises goats, volunteers at the farm, and she never gets angry...she's a true Humboldtian."

"I met a cute Humboldtian at the barn dance - he's in a bluegrass band."

"Did you see all the Humboldtians playing bongo drums during the kinetic sculpture race?"

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
