Not Pretending 

A sarcastic phrase popularized by AdmiralBulldog and his circus of clowns, he calls MegaCucks.

Usually used to exhibit bewilderment and disdain against someone's actions or thoughts. This can be a response to somebody when you don't know if they are "pretending" to be dumb. It can be an affirmation of someone's stupidity.

Can be synonymous with replying to somebody who is being deadass wrong.

In other words, the feeling you get when you thought someone's actions or words were a joke but they were not.
John: Wow! Can you believe that Jeffery Ebstein killed himself?!
Matthew: Do you actually believe that?
John: Yeah. I guess he couldn't take the pressure.
Matthew: *shaking head* Not pretending.

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!
