Idiot Demographic

Media slang for daytime television's target audience. Nicknamed for the segment of the population appealed to by commercials running from about 10AM to 5PM. Ads tend to be from industries like for-profit schools (ITT Tech, DeVry), personal injury/tax lawyers (Roni Deutsch, Binder and Binder) and car insurance companies that work with DUIs and tickets (The General, Cost-U-Less). Getting bumped to this timeslot is either the death rattle or a sign of syndication for sitcoms.
"Daytime television, you can tell who’s watching by the three kinds of commercials. Either it’s clinics for drying out drunks. Or it’s law firms who want to settle injury suits. Or it’s schools offering mail-order vocational degrees to make you a bookkeeper. A private detective. Or a locksmith. If you’re watching daytime television, this is your new demographic. You’re a drunk. Or a cripple. Or an idiot. "
Chuck Palahniuk, Haunted

"Jerry Springer just got bumped to the idiot demographic."

Demographicalizing 

The act or process of categorizing a geographical area determined by the population's race.
Tim: What's the address?
Brian: 4500 North Avenue...
Tim: The North Side?
Brian: Yeah...why?
Tim: Is her name Laqueefa?
Brian: Wow, no it's Carol, Mr. Racist.
Tim: That's not racist, that's demographicalizing

Periphery Demographic

Basically, people (especially teens and adults) who read, watch or play something that's not really intended for their actual age demographic. One example is Harry Potter which was originally intended for children and adolescents but quickly caught on with adults as well.
Hank the Cowdog was originally written for adults, but became incredibly popular with children. That's one example of the periphery demographic stereotype reversed (the stereotype being that most think that adults always read something originally intended for kids, but now it's kids reading something originally intended for adults).

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.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
