delegate dance 

A place where young adolescents with oversized libidos release tremendous sexual tension that has been accumulating for several days while participating in a stressful Model United Nations conference (Such as U of Penn MUN or UC Berkley MUN). The most insane and grimy party you've ever been to. Expect it to be packed with sweaty teens of all nationalities. Managing to maneuver through the dance floor is quite a challenge, you will likely get shoved and pushed as if you were in one massive mosh pit. Nationalities will often remain in packs on the dance floor, be cautious of "straight off the boat" foreigners as they are often hideous. Your clothes will undoubtedly be drenched with sweat by the end of the 4 hour affair beginning at 9 PM and ending at 12 PM. HORNY TEENS fear not, there will be plenty of MUN POON circulating through out the dance. Girls are often extremely attractive while the guys tend to be huge nerds. Delegates can expect anything from handjobs to hook ups on the dance floor. The Delegate Dance is similar to a huge orgy of teens. If one does not receive MUN POON at the dance, he has failed at life. See also: MUN POON
Jordan: Dude what was your body count at the Delegate Dance last night?

Jordan: Dayum. I got attacked by a bunch of chicks from China.
Daniel: Gross

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.
