deadman wonderland 

An anime/manga series set a few years after a severe earthquake in Japan. A floating man in a red suit comes into a high school classroom and kills all the students except for one, Ganta Igarashi. Ganta is accused of murdering all his classmates and sent to an amusement park-like prison called Deadman Wonderland, aka the most twisted prison in the world. Prisoners are forced to battle each other on live TV, have body parts removed, etc. While at the prison, Ganta discovers his "Branch of Sin," the ability to manipulate his own blood. As he learns more about this ability, he starts to realize he may finally break free, and get revenge on the Red Man that murdered his friends.
Person 1: "Have you seen Deadman Wonderland?"
Person 2: "Yes! It's so awesome and intense! I feel so bad for poor Ganta though!"

deadwing 

A person who has been compromised or proven themselves unreliable, untrustworthy, a liability, and generally useless. Someone who has fallen from grace, and is generally ostracized. Someone who destroys themselves or others or causes great harm due to acts of stupidity, hubris, vanity, greed or negligence. For example, Icarus flew too close to the sun, melting his wings, and fell to his death.

Surprisingly, this word is used quite often in English-speaking countries, but does not appear in mainstream dictionaries. Some examples of popular references are Porcupine Tree's album entitled "Deadwing", and used in "Walking Dead" when Martinez refers to the Governor as a 'deadwing'.

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.
