seat check
a way to reserving your seat fo a certain amount of time. It works by calling "seat check" before leaving your seat. This insures no one may sit in your seat, however another person may sit there but only until the "seat checker" returns. A key point of this is making sure your persons your around understand and use seat check, or your seat will be jacked with no mercy.
Seat Jack: this is simply a way of insuring a persons seat will be taken by you. By calling "seat jack" before a person calls seat check and after that persons but leaves their seat, you have in effect "jacked" their seat.
Different groups of people use different rules so be sure to ask for "The Rules of Your Seat Check" before leaving your seat, when with a new group of people. The number one most important thing about "Seat Check/Jack" is that they CANNOT be disobeyed. The "Check/Jack" when called stays, until the time limit is reached.
Depending on who you are "Checking" your seat with, there will be a time limit. This means after the seat is checked, that seat is only on reserve for normally 5 minutes. So that after 5 minutes without the "seat checker" returning, the seat may be "jacked." Simple right?
Some variations include:
1) not called seat check but "quack quack:" meaning "quack quack, no seat jack"
----called the same way as seat check----
2) many different time limit are used, most widely used being 5 minutes but up to 20 when going to the bathroom, persay.
3) ALWAYS a safe thing to do is
- make sure seat check/jack and quack quack are understood
- then while still sitting, call "seat check quack quack!" or if with a highly educated group call "seat quack!"
- make sure another person hears you call it, look them in the face and say it!
Again, always obey seat check and quack quack, always!

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.

TLDU
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!
