The process of winning a situation very hard, often when your party is dead weight while competing parties try their best effort. Originates from DOTA based games where at some games your team is very incompetent while the other team is decent. If you win the game any way it can be said that you 1v9'ed the game.
"look at this guy, he has 21 kills while the enemy team combined has 25 kills. He is 1v9ing this game!"

"I had to get to the party at 22:00. I had a flat tire, then I managed to avoid 5 accidents, I rescued a stray cat from the middle of the street, and I got pulled over by a cop. Still, I was on time. I really 1v9'ed it"

Normally used in MOBA Games like DOTA or League of Legends, this basically means that your team is useless and you're the only one who is carrying the game.

Players generally say this when they feel or are doing the carry of their entire team, they can outpeform the enemy and ally team.

If we wanna talk outside of MOBA games, it can also be used when you basically exceeded your expectations and you were the best of all.
*League of Legends* "Akali: I'm literally 1v9ing the game bro, I'm fed and you guys are just dying"

"Enemy Kassadin: JG gap never ganked mid"

"Real life" "John: Bro I just 1v9'd the final math test this month, I got 20/20 score"

"John's Friend: too ez"

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!
