Civic Duty 

The obligation of a citizen to their community: to be held captive by the judicial system at a wage rate that covers a gas station burrito and some old fried coffee for some incident that does not concern you or anyone on the group call list. To forego all potential income for said day/week/period of time to appear in court. To sit in the busiest time of traffic on a specified weekday in order to avoid a bench warrant. To put one's responsibilities and prior obligations on hold and pretend to give a shit about being unbiased and objective.
Tom: Fuck jury duty bro, I don't have time for that.
Rick: Dude, it isn't that bad and besides it's your civic duty.
Tom: You can eat a fork, Rick.
Rick: O_____O

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.
