When you touch tips and then, while continuing to touch tips, you also touch balls.
Pierre and Rick locked eyes as they touched tips, and grinned while moving towards steepling.

Words you can keep
Verb.
The act of putting your fingertips together, most likely to indicate thoughtfulness.

So named because this action makes one's hands look vaguely like a steeple.
The following children's hand game shows an example of steepling:
This is the church; this is the steeple; open the doors, and there's all the people.
Steepling by Mysterious C June 22, 2006
A hand gesture where the fingers of one hand touch the other and the palms are pressed inwards arching the fingers.

This was once a gesture of confidence, but now it solely connotes condescension and is only seen in action by the #bellends in Apple's virtual events.
Ugh, I can't watch those Apple events anymore with those cringe-making presenters steepling their hands like the new colour phone needs to be explained to me like I'm six.

Sleeping Warrior

An individual who proposes the earth is a flat plane surrounded by an icy pizza crust and makes wild claims that objects fall or float due to their density only.

A gravity denier who beats off into a Henry vacuum cleaner and considers that scientific method.

A flat earther who cannot research and / or doesn't wash. A keyboard warrior for those who are still asleep.

An unscientific and unimaginative attention seeker who proves the earth is a globe yet denies the evidence in order to make money off other people's good nature.

A predator and a charlatan. An unremarkable Level 1 Pandarian Monk from Azeroth.
Person A: "Got a vacuum cleaner handy?"
Person B: "Don't be a sleeping warrior."

Person A: "So i told the idiot Mt Rainer should tower over Mt St Helen at the height illustrated in that photograph, but he got the height wrong"
Person B: "The height was referring to the side peak of Mt St Helens, not the summit"
Person A: "The photograph is fake then"

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.

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!
