Words you can keep
an occurance on CRTs that happens when an image is left on the screen for a long period of time. usually noted by said image remaining on the screen even after being powered off, as the image is permanently etched into the internal phosphor coating of the tube. Burn in usually occurs much faster on monochrome CRTs than on color CRTs as monochrome does not contain a shadow mask, thereby allowing the rays to directly strike the phosphor surface.

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!
