Powerscape 

The landscape of power among individuals, groups, or structures within a system.
Abigail: It's important to consider the powerscapes at work here, whether in our personal relationships, our fashion, or our government.
Nate: Definitely. Without fully understanding and addressing the dynamics of power in this landscape, we won't be able to move forward.

powerspeak 

noun; inflated and often self-serving language used to highlight accomplishments and/or their importance; often used on resumes, during work reviews, and in work-related meetings
Dude A: Basically we packaged and repackaged advertising in way that would persuade some percentile of middle america to gaze upon its flickering beacons of weight loss and mortgage refinancing

Dude B: Is that the official description? Something tells me that didn't come from a company memo.

Dude A: well, that's just a superficial estimation
from within it's a well-oiled machine, an insidious, ad-serving force of nature, partly thanks to me
(is that a better display of ego?)

Dude B: Yeah. Way to rock the powerspeak.

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!
