Indie band 

The term Indie nowadays describes a current trend since around 2003 to consider "indie" a certain musical style rather than a stance towards commercialism.
This style is in most cases a mixture of wave, early punkrock, singer/songwriter music, electronica and above all whiney singing.

Ironically most bands among those "indie" bands are not part of an independent music scene, but as part of the musical mainstream rather dependent.
"I like Indie bands... like with guitars and stuff"

Indie Bands With a Mission 

Indie Bands With a Mission, also known as IBWAM, is a volunteer group/informal, non-profit organization. Our goal is to write cookbooks that feature a few local/unknown bands and the band members' favorite recipes.

The profits from each cookbook will go towards whatever charity the bands featured in the cookbook want to help. A few food banks in the Washington, DC area will benefit from the profits as well.

The first cookbook is Wonder Treats That Bands Fantasize About.

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.

Acronym, meaning Too Long Didn't Understand

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!
