Words you can keep
The process of publicizing some (but not all) incriminating evidence, then letting the person/organization (the ACORN-ee) involved make statements to the contrary. The ACORN-er then responds with more evidence that proves the statements just made were not only false, but also shows further incriminating evidence.
Mary: Did you hear about Mr. Smith, the high school athletic director? He was breaking regulations by falsifying documents and recruiting four athletes from outside the district for football.

John: Yeah, but he said he would never break regulation and that anybody wanting to join the team outside the boundaries would be "shown the door."

Mary: Well, today they showed a video of him going to the house that the athletes were staying in so they could lie to the school district. The video also shows there's a new pimped-out Escalade for each athlete. Not only that, he was carrying two cases of beer into the house. So he's also contributing to the delinquency of minors.

John: Man, he really got ACORNED!!!

(Mr. Smith proceeds to sue the school district for terminating his employment and the people who caught him giving alcohol to minors, illegal recruitment, giving gifts to student athletes, and falsifying information.)

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!
