Psycho-magnification 

Psycho-magnification is the process by which interpretations of events/thoughts/action get magnified or exaggerated exponentially (till a point at which it defies logic) as the thought passes through different psyche levels.

Process example : Person 1 to 2 : "Mike was stung by a bee"... Person 2 to 3 : "Mike was stung by a giant bee"... Person 3 to 4 : "Mike was stung by a giant man-eating bee and escaped only because Batman saved him."... Person 4 to 5 : "Mike is a giant man-eating bee and he ate Batman"
Mike's experience with the bee bite was subject to a brutal amount of psycho-magnification.

Catification 

Catification is the art of making changes and adjustments to your home that meet the needs of both you and your cat (aesthetically and spatially). You want to create spaces that really satisfy your cat’s primal instincts and challenge them the way being outdoors does. Your cat’s instincts propel them to jump, perch, climb, play, sleep, eat, hunt, and claim their own territory. So chances are, you need to create additional spaces for them to do this. If your cat is showing signs of aggression or behavioural issues, it might be because one (or several) of their primal needs aren’t being met. Guardians need to get their cat mojo going! The key to a confident, secure, and happy cat is catering to these urges, and providing the necessary outlets for them to do so.
"I want to my home better for my cats" - "Dude, you're talking about the art of Catification!"

"My cats don't seem very happy, what should do" - "The answer my friend is Catification"

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.

Acronym, meaning Too Long Didn't Understand
Similar to TLDR
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!
