Jar Jar Binks' rib-cracking Gungan rendition of the commonly known but rarely spoken phrase "how rude" in George Lucas' 1999 magnum opus Star Wars: Episode I-The Phantom Menace.

Binks is perhaps best known for demonstrating the versatility of this expression and reviving it from near-certain obsolescence in an increasingly callous American culture where rudeness has made enormous gains in legitimacy over the past half-century, even becoming embroidered into the very fabric of society. The devilish simplicity of changing a simple letter, "r," to "w" in order to achieve a multi-faceted meaning that both chides the offender and toys with cutesy-humor is the product of what can only be described as formidable, razor-sharp wit.

Binks has achieved widespread recognition and acclaim for his impeccably delivered alien Ebonics. Everyone is also in wide agreement that Binks is just a CUDDLY-WUDDLY WIDDLE ALIEN as well.

Jar-Jar Binks: Yipe! HOW WUDE!

Some asshole kidnaps you, rips out your teeth, and buries you up to your neck in wet earth, denying you food and water and offering only semen sucked from his cock as a source of sustenance. He also forces you to recite the Gettysburg Address each morning at dawn. You look him directly in the eye and say, "HOW WUDE!"
How Rude.
The first message was, ASL? I responded by quoting Jar Jar Binks."HowWude".

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.
