Calls is a nickname commonly utilized by those named Callum. Generally, as not the brightest of folks, this is a play on their inability to spell their own shortened name having attempted to write Cal. As a result of this, this nickname is used to:

a) shorten the name Callum
b) make fun of their crippling dyslexia or immense stupidity

Often the Callum will not even know they are being made fun of.
Me: 'Hey Calls'
Callum: 'Yup'
Me: Silent internal hysteria

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.
