South Australia: Special Victims Unit 

The capital city of South Australia, previously known as Adelaide has been officially designated a progress free zone because of the huge numbers of hysterical conservatives who bend over vomiting with rage and indignation whenever a new idea is presented.

Taking the stance that 'this new idea means that they think my old idea is bad'; the people of SA:SVU take such ideas, suggestions, and pleas for some sort of progress as a personal affront to their character - something which they shouldn't do, firstly because it's not how to have an adult conversation, and secondly because they have no character to speak of.

While many cities have their fair share of whinging, tiresome old shits; Adelaide has, because of decades of 'bright flight'; been left with a much higher percentage of shits than other major Australian cities.

SA:SVU is now a toxic hell hole for anyone with more than half a brain cell. Investors go where the talent is, and they're not going to Adelaide, the renewal project is a joke, and the festivals such as Fringe only serve to advertise what you can get in other cities all year round; but can only get in Adelaide for one month a year.

Those not ranting hysterically are making excuses for Adelaide; that a city with a population of 1.2 million doesn't need more business, entertainment, big name artist performance, good governance, or opportunities for young people to do well in their life.
Me: Hey, this bar has got half as many people in it as last year - how about we do something different to bring more punters in?

Special Victim: Well, I don't know why you've made that suggestion; you obviously hate the place. I go there, I suppose you hate me too. Gees, why can't you just accept the place for what it is ant stop being so negative?

Me: I see we're playing South Australia: Special Victims Unit again.

This has give them the nickname of “Anchor Wankers” as of there homosexual nature, they may think they are better than everyone else, but indeed they are not.

Oh no! It’s the Australian Navy Cadets, Fran the F88’s

Greens Australia 

A failing activist group in Australia that thrives only by getting votes through unorthodox means. Using taxpayer money to bribe immigrants, using children as young as 7 in their protest, and are always yelling, ranting, and angry on TV.

The lower peasants of Greens spend their days trolling Sky News and resorting to shaming, guilt tripping and insulting anyone who dare think differently, grasping at the hope they may bully others into voting Greens.

When it all comes down to it, the only thing Greens Australia focus on is control.

Australian Snow Storm

An intricate masturbatory position requiring the masturbator to be in an inverse of the Z vector tangential to the earth's surface i.e. hanging from a pull-up bar via gravity boots. This form requires strength, finesse, deep concentration, preperation, and most importantly aim. When climax is reached, the ejaculate (if directed properly) will descend gracefully like snowflakes on a Winter's day.

Advanced techniques can be applied to create a reining flurry. As one approaches the apex, vigorous pendulum-like motions combined with slight torquing of the hips can cause the trajectory of the ejaculate to scatter forming a ferocious blizzard.

It is crucial for the masturbator to be properly prepared with all required materials within arms reach. Due to the excessive blood flow and disorientation, failure to prepare in this advanced position can cause irrational thinking, broken bones, and abashed relationships with kin.
Although Steve had been training for months, he went blind while attempting the Australian Snow Storm when the acidity of the poorly aimed semen landed in his eyes causing permanent erosion of his retinas.

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.
