Islandism 

Living in a separate world from others considered to be in your sphere. As in how an island is separated from a main body.
They never thought they would be living in islandism in the middle of such a crowded city.

West Falkland Islands 

A large dependency of the British crown, located on the southern American continent found at latitude 38.4161, longitude 3.6167° W. It is often mistakenly referred to as "Argentina" but anyone who does so is canonically wrong.

In a similar way, the name comes from the residents of a plucky island nation mocking a much larger hostile nation and their (ultimately flawed) expansionist desires. A good example of another country mocked in this way is West Taiwan (who keep threatening to conquer east/real Taiwan).

The official language of the West Falklands is German for reasons that we won't go in to.

They have won multiple world cups, but most of the ancestors of the current population haven't ever had much success on the world stage in "other events".
Guy 1: "I can't wait to go on Holiday to the West Falkland islands."
Guy 2: "Make sure you learn German before you go."
Guy 1: "why?"
Guy 2: "there's always German's on holiday"

palm islands 

Man-made islands in the Persian Gulf located right off of Dubai. There are three different chains of the Palms: Jebel Ali, Jumeirah, and Deira. When completed, they will house luxury hotels, beacfront houses, and water parks. Deira is the largest of the chains. Upon completion, they will be the only man-made structure visible from space, besides the Great Wall of China.
By the year 2015, space toruism will be a reality. I will give those people a bon voyage and remind them to look for the Palm Islands off of Dubai.

Islamism 

Islamism is an authoritarian political ideology that seeks to impose Islam on society. Thus, it is a form of theocracy. Whilst this definition is valid for the imposition of any form of Islam on society, almost all Islamists adhere to ultra-conservative beliefs such as those of Wahhabi Saudi Arabia.

The intellectual godfather of Islamism is Hassan al-Banna, who founded the Muslim Brotherhood. In effect, he transferred the fascist concept of the 'state' or 'super state' and imposed it upon the Islamic religion. This is why some describe Islamism as a form of Fascism. al-Banna was a known admirer of European Fascists such as Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini.

Jihadism is the use of violence to achieve Islamism.
Isis is an Islamist group, so are the Muslim Brotherhood and Hiz-but Tahrir.
The MB is a non-violent group in Egypt, but its members are fighting alongside Al-Qaeda in Syria.
Why is it that "Anti-Fascists" are apologists for Islamism?

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.
