Katie spent the last hour and a half trying to get the angle just right to hide her double chin and to catch the light just right making her cheeks glow and her puckered lips look like a lubed anus...... Ste just slapped his cock a few times and sent a dick pic back. The quintessential exchange on Instasham.

It’s what you’d call dishrags and trashy people that your significant other slithers up to on dating sites and/or Instagram, usually behind your back when he needs a self-esteem boost. Dim witted, one-note and superficial. Like dishrags you can find on Instagram. 🤷🏻 ♀️
Are you keeping up on all of the latest with Afghanistan? I bet those instarags don’t even know what’s going on.

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!
