Make It Up 

The phrase that you use in a time of utter disbelief. Overwhelmed with an unability to "Make it up." Usually it seems like if you actually tried to make up a story or something creative, it would be more believable than the actual events that have occured.
Chris: Jesus Christ dude they just bombed the Twin Towers.

Adam: You can't make it up bro.

Words you can keep

make it up to you 

A phrase said when someone makes you feel like horse manure and then acts like they are going to rectify their carelessness by doing something that would actually constitute a change in their behavior, when really it's just bullshit words that allow them to be forgiven until they repeat said horse manure behavior.
"Sorry I stood you up, I'll make it up to you!"

Make it up to 

Idiom.
To "make it up to someone" means to do something nice for them after you've messed up, like buying them a drink after you forgot their birthday or bailing them out of jail after a wild night. It's all about trying to smooth things over when you've been a total jerk.
Example: "I totally flaked on our plans, so I’m gonna make it up to her by taking her out for a night of debauchery and enough booze to forget I’m an idiot."

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
Similar to TLDR
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!
