One of the earliest poetic form in the Spanish peninsula—although some scholars start the study of Spanish poetry with this poetic form, I will argue that there was a wealth of poetry produced in Arabic and Hebrew before the “Reconquista”. The form was developed by the Arabs on the peninsula, Mozarabs. It produces a deep melancholy in the reader, as it usually is about unobtainable love or deep sadness and misfortune.
Student 1:
Read me some great poetry from Spain, maybe a Jarcha.

Student 2:
!Se nace acaso con mala suerte!
¡Quebrad, ojos míos, y doleos más aún!

A Jarch is when you are playing video games and you bask in your glorious kill by tea bagging so hard that your fallen opponent can taste your unborn children.
That kid was such a noob trying to kill me with a shotgun. I killed him and gave him the Jarch over and over and over again until he rage quit the game.

A beautiful man - almost as hard to look at as Edward in the Twighlight books because he looks so good. He is brilliant, funny, and crazy athletic. He is gifted and extremely loveable. This boy would have to be the highlight of every party. He will probably steal your girlfriend, but you cannot do anything about it.
Guys:
1: What the fuck, does he have diamond skin?
2: No, that's just a Jascha

Girls:
1: I just came in my panties, is that Edward Cullen?
2: No, that is a Jascha

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!
