Onshe (Also pronounced Onsh) is a slang term for a male that is currently in the process of transitioning to female. They are obviously huge advocates for transgender rights and being called an "Onshe" is like a badge of honor for trans people.

The word can also be used as a verb - replacing the word "transitioning" when speaking of gender reassignment surgery.
Mary: "Hey did you see that powerful Onshe getting her first COVID vaccine shot?"
Tim: "I did - She's extremely brave for transitioning and smart for receiving the vaccine."

Tom: "Greg! It's great to see you again. I haven't seen you since high school - what have you been up to?"
Greg: "I'm actually in the process of onshing right now. This time next month I'll finally be the woman I always dreamed of"

Sudden Onset Autism 

Sudden Onset Autism, or S.O.A for short, is an extremely rare condition of unknown origin. Development of this disease is both abrupt and severe. As of now, the pathogenesis and mode of infection have eluded even the most qualified of research teams at Harvard, Hopkins, and Yale. Some have suspected that transmission occurs through contact with an infected person, especially prandially. There is still hope for a cure, although we may be decades away.

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!
