Schoolcare 

Largest entitlement program in the United States, its primary purpose is the storage of children whose parents are unwilling to raise and educate them. Often called by the misnomer "public education". Many people mistakenly believe that the monitors, aka "teachers", actually educate the children while they are there, despite class sizes that clearly demonstrate that the monitor's influence is a relatively small percentage.
Parental at the beginning of summer break: "School is out. Oh no! What am I going to do with them all summer? They misbehave SO much when they're bored, it's just impossible. I'd rather be at work."

Parental at the end of summer: "Thank God the kids are back in schoolcare! I am SO glad, I just can't stand them being home all summer!"

Parental to homeschooling parent: "Oh, I could never do that. Mine are in schoolcare; I wouldn't want to be around them that much."

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!
