The exhausting experience of trudging through piles of snow to get to where you need to go. Trudgery is highly effortful and has a negative effect on mood. Unplowed sidewalks, heavy bags, early mornings, severe winds, and non-waterproof footwear can all heighten one's sense of trudgery.
"Ugh, two feet of snow fell last night, and I had to get to class by 8:30am. The sidewalks were a mess. I'm exhausted; it was complete trudgery."

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
