Dufresned 

Form a tunnel with your legs in squatting position with several others. An individual crawls underneath and the tunnel members scat onto the crawler. Named after the famous scene of Shawshank Redemption where Andy Dufresne crawls through a sewage pipe to freedom.

Dufresned 

When something "vanishes like a fart in the wind", a la Andy Dufresne from Shawshank State Prison.
Ex: "My $50.00 wine opener I got in Italy Dufresned on me after my daughter's bridesmaids got ready for her wedding at my house."

Dufresning 

The discrete, illegal dumping of mass quantities of waste, by distributing it in small amounts at various locations around town. This is done to avoid paying a manageable, one time fee at the local waste disposal facility.

This term comes from the move Shawshank Redemption and the character Andy Dupresne. Seems Andy's favorite hobby was toting his wall out into the exercise yard... ...a handful at a time.
I tore down a wall of plaster and mortar at my house, and it took me a month of Andy Dufresning to get rid of it at local dumpsters, ditches, grade schools, and churches.

Andy Dufresne

In 1966, Andy Dufresne escaped from Shawshank prison. All they found of him was a muddy set of prison clothes, a bar of soap, and an old rock hammer, damn near worn down to the nub. I used to think it would take six-hundred years to tunnel under the wall with it. Old Andy did it in less than twenty. Oh, Andy loved Geology, I guess it appealed to his meticulous nature. An ice age here, million years of mountain building there. Geology is the study of pressure and time. That's all it takes really, pressure, and time. That, and a big god-damned poster. Like I said, in prison a man will do anything to keep his mind occupied. It turns out Andy's favourite hobby was totin' his wall through the exercise yard, a handful at a time. I guess after Tommy was killed, he decided he had been here just about long enough. Andy did like he was told, buffed those shoes to a high mirror shine. The guard simply didn't notice, neither did I... I mean, seriously, how often do you really look at a mans shoes? Andy crawled to freedom through five-hundred yards of shit smelling foulness I can't even imagine, or maybe I just don't want too. Five-Hundred yards... that's the length of five football fields, just shy of half a mile.
Andy Dufresne - who crawled through a river of shit and came out clean on the other side.

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.
