Arkaeology 

The "race to discover the Ultimate Golden artifact" endeavors that Indy and Belloq were simultaneously engaged in.
If Belloq had possessed a bit less ego and relied less heavily on his unreliable-in-their-honesty/loyalty mercenary cohorts, he might have had better success in his Arkaeology ventures.

Areaology 

The worship of the all-encompassing Area, AKA David Bowie's crotch. A kind of pseudo-religious cult practise that involves repeatedly watching such films as 'The Man Who Fell to Earth' and 'Labyrinth' in which the Area stars. Areaologists believe that the Area is with them at all hours of the night and day and that its presence can be linked to the creation of the Earth and all its inhabitants.
Areaology is quickly becoming accepted throughout most English-speaking countries.

Facebook Archaeology 

To dig up old facebook posts by liking or commenting, flooding people's facebook spaces with posts and statuses from five years ago or older. This practice is most successful when done to posts made before facebook likes were implemented, staking the archaeologists' claim.

urban archeology 

The act of digging through one's garage, storage, closets, etc in search of lost artifacts and or in the process of reducing the amount of 'stuff' collected over the years.
1. We're getting ready to move, so we're going to storage to do a little urban archeology.

2. I ran into Cynthia and had to do a little urban archeology to find her phone number.
The study of the structure of Mars. Similar to geology of Earth, areological study looks at rocks, dirt, terrain, and other physical features of the fourth planet.

Related terms include:
- areography (like geography)
- exogeology
- hydroareology (study of martian groundwaters)
- paleoareology
The areology of Olympus Mons denotes it is over 20 km tall. Areological study of the planet is difficult at such a distance, so the only areologists on the planet are Martian rovers. "Geology is the areology of Earth"

archaeology

1. (What archaeology should be) You've started your archaeology course. It's the first day, you have your hat, whip and designer stuble and are ready to go and kick ass. Everything is exciting, there are always nazi scum to shoot, imprisoned children to free and artefact s to "rescue". If you are an archaeologist you can also get laid easily.

2. What archaeology is :( . You're there, on your uni course, let's say in Exeter for example. Pen in hand. Peering around the lecture theatre at various other odd looking characters that look like they should never have been allowed to leave wales , sommerset or whatever random back country they escaped from. There's hours of looking at dendrochronology, pollen diagrams, and geophysical bull shit. (That's not the good kind of pollen either :( ) Archaeology causes insanity, a strong accent and excitement over broken ceramics .

Avoid at all costs. Unless you are already displaying archaeology symptoms, then you may well enjoy.
*queue theme music* Look at him killing all those nazi's! He must have done archaeology!

This week you will be looking at carbonised grain and what it can tell us about past cultures and how they farmed.

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.

Acronym, meaning Too Long Didn't Understand
Similar to TLDR
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!
