Man-Scares 

(man- sKAirz)-noun-At time of the morning in which a post adolescent male between the ages of 18-25, or generally of college age, experiences a glance in his mirror by which he is frightened due to his physical appearance becoming more reminiscent of his father, a generally wearing image of a middle-aged man, or actor Vince Vaughn post-Swingers. This scare either stems from a reality or misperception in which the male notices either his stomach is expanding, his hairline receding, his eyes especially sunken from a night of sleep, his facial hair half-shaven, and his muscle gone.
Man-Scares sweeping the nation one dude at a time.

Scared Skinny 

To have dieted to the point of being unattractive, but ironically the dieter in question was only dieting to look MORE attractive.

To look like one has an eating disorder.

Beyond skinny-fat, this person is scared skinny, so as not to endure the pain of being labeled fat, lazy or repulsive, this person has went to extremes to reach an unattractively low weight that is neither healthy, sustainable or sexy in any way.
Example 1

DUDE #1: Did you see the chick that just walked by, she was hot!

DUDE #2: Are you kidding? She looked scared skinny.

DUDE #1: Oh that's right, you like your women bootylicious.

DUDE #2: And you like your women anorexic. Be a real man bro and learn how to handle a real woman!

Example 2

Award-winning playwright and author Mary Dimino claims to have been "Scared Skinny" in her New York International Fringe solo show and best selling book.

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!
