Dermatology 

Dermatology, often shortened to derm, is a specialty of medicine. Doctors who have specialized in dermatology have generally done four years of college, four years of medical school, one year of a medical/surgical internship, and three years of dermatology residency. Board-certified dermatologists are the only physicians with advanced medical training to diagnose and treat skin, hair, and nail conditions. They can also perform surgical procedures like biopsies, Mohs surgery to remove cancer, and complex wound reconstruction. Dermatology is widely considered to be the most competitive and most sought-after specialty among top medical students.

Derpatology 

Is the observation that common socially acceptable behaviors, reactionary standards of dispute resolution, interests in higher learning and "self betterment" are on the sharp decline in America and some other country/states . Many Derpatologists agree; with the constant incline of the state of "Derp", lower I.Q's will follow at an equal or sharply worsening rate.
Very un-common to use in sentence structure, since it's not science just rhetoric at this point. But as a rudimentary example:

"Got my B.S. in Sociology. Served four years in Peace Core. Became a parole officer. Yada yada yada, later found my way into derpatology."

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.
