Tarnational 

Legend has It that the disdain of an individual is so well-known, including by that entity itself, that there is no escape from versed ridicule border to border of our great nation.

A tarnational often thinks "why" and occasionally 1-ups the ridicule by being perfectly rude first upon meeting. This is one trait of some notoriety as well.

Sensationally, this word derives from the Latin root "Tarn" and the common ending "-ation." This condition tends to lead to other words with the same ending... such as retaliation, starvation and expiration.
Wind whispers: If you just avoid this thing, she will go away.

Tarnational: I'M GONNA RIP THAT WIND RIGHT OUT OF THE AIR IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO.

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!
