American Badass

Noun) Someone who is such a badass to the extent of not caring for their surroundings and present audience. They are known to swear profusely regardless of their company and do health-risking things such as smoke just to look cool. An American Badass does not necessarily have to be American. This can be used to compliment someone in the highest regards by simply calling them an American Badass.

The wardrobe of an American Badass typically consists of a headband/bandanna of some sort. A sleeveless denim jacket that they may have ripped the sleeves off during a bar-fight. Leather pants acquired from killing a man. Fingerless gloves that expose the fingers so that one can properly give the finger in. The boots of an American Badass are always made from the finest cowhide/leather.

American Badass

Typically have long hair, but not always.

They also like sleeveless t-shirts.

They're usually of the trailer park variety. In a crowd of people, you'd spot an American Badass as being the guy that's dressed like a biker, but doesn't have a motorcycle. Usually a big fan of classic rock music, or possibly country.

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.
