Thorpeing 

The act of attempting to save money but actually incurring more overall expense and then justifying the additional time, money, and resources spent with backward logic and citing intangible benefits.
Kevin wanted to use less natural gas to heat his new home and elected to build a wood burning fireplace. In saving an average of $4.25 a month in natural gas, he ended up Thorpeing it by wasting an entire Saturday every year driving to the woods to cut down dead trees, costing $40 in gas and another $7.50 to power the chainsaw as it spewed carbon emissions into the otherwise pristine mountain air. The chimney sweep only costs about $50 every other year and the fines for burning wood on red-burn days in the polluted valley add up, too. But hey, the whole endeavor takes him back to an earlier day and age when the world was more innocent and a man could feel good about a hard days work.

When a guy or girl dates or talks frequently with somebody with severe mental issues. Especially people who are emotionally manipulative and will use their mental illness as a leverage to keep you in the relationship (e.g: “I’m going to kill myself if you dump me”). People who are therping believe that they are therapists and that they are going to magically cure or help this person, which they will of course not. If a friend is caught therping it is recommended to sit them down and calmly explain how they are being manipulated.

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.
