The Dale 

A lovely borough in Montgomery county Pennsylvania (Lansdale for long) that is 28 miles away from North East Philadelphia. As a result of its location the Dale has a diverse spectrum of people. On the left side of the spectrum we have Philly hood rats that are really on some gang shit. On the right side of the spectrum we have rich white kids that claim to really be on some gang shit (but its painfully obvious that they actually aren't.) While a person born outside of the Dale might think that this cesspool of a community would never get along, once you take a dip into our community you’ll see that the Dales mesh of cultures doesn’t cause it to be self-destructive; but in a way it causes it to be harmonious. While we do have some hiccups in our community like random fights that seem to start for no reason, an excessive amount of people posting themselves doing drugs on snapchat, half of our population being thots (both male and female), and an increasing amount of people being fake depressed on social media for attention; I still have high hopes our current generation growing up in the Dale. All in all, no matter what your financial or ethnic background is you can always find yourself a place on the Dale spectrum and you know what they say; “if you can make it in the Dale, you can make it anywhere!”
Person #1: “Yooo check **** snapchat story, that one kid got knocked out at Parkside!”
Person #2: (shaking thier head) “Only in the Dale...”

The Dale Gribble Effect

the tendency to be paranoid and obsessed with conspiracy theories, while being oblivious to obvious truths
The Dale Gribble Effect is when someone’s distrust of authority becomes so extreme that it blinds them to the obvious truth — they’re so busy hunting conspiracies that they can’t see the real one happening right in front of them.

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.

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!
