Dirty Anderson 

When you talk up an unattractive person at a bar. Sneak off to the bathroom, bushes, rooftop etc to fool around. Then run off leaving the unattractive person with the tab.
Damn! Zack just pulled a dirty Anderson. He got a hummer in the bushes from that fat chick and left her with the bar tab.

Andersonvillain 

The villains of Andersonville: Fake-ass people who live in Andersonville, a north-side Chicago neighborhood. Faux-liberals who whine about gentrification, housing prices, and homelessness but then brag about their hood as the “second coolest in the world”. They preach acceptance and inclusion while judging everyone and attempting to run pedestrians over for walking too slowly at intersections. You’ll know an Andersonvillain when you see one: a basic person who shares their ill-formed opinion loudly while trying to be unique, but who instead walks past 8 independently owned coffee shops to get their PSL at Starbucks just for the reward points.
A: Those people with the baby stroller on Clark street ran right into me. They were talking so loudly about how exited they are about the new salad restaurant.

B. Yeah they are the worst. What a couple of Andersonvillains!

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!
