New Shoe Syndrome 

A disease commonly occuring in people of the female gender, when they go on large shopping sprees, and buy beautiful new shoes. This disease results in indecisiveness on what pair of new shoes to wear, basing your outfit around your shoes, or wearing shoes with ridiculous outfits - like high heels with pyjamas, etc.
"Dang, girl! You need to get over this New Shoe Syndrome!"
"I can't help it! I love my shoes soooo much!"
"You're wearing your PYJAMAS! WITH BOOTS!"
"But they're so cuuuute...."

New Shoe Syndrome 

When a person gets a brand new pair of shoes and they at all costs avoid activities that could damage or stain the pair.

The victim will take extreme measures to protect their shoes, sometimes going as far as harming others.

The effect usually wears off after the first few scuffs and stains, or after a month or two.
Person 1: "Sorry man, I can't go hiking this week, I got the brand new $700 Jayden 4's and I'm all out of plastic shoe covers"

Person 2: "Damn, you must be suffering from New Shoe Syndrome"

Person 1: "You don't understand mate, these are more valuable to me than my family"

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!
