cringe-artist 

A "cringe-artist" refers to a person who frequently produces content or engages in behavior that is seen as excessively awkward, embarrassing, or inauthentic, often eliciting a strong negative reaction from others.

This term is often used in online communities to describe individuals whose attempts at humor, self-promotion, paid political or commercial promotion, or social commentary fall flat and provoke feelings of second-hand embarrassment.
Many political commentators have labeled TikTok celebrity Harry Sisson (@harryjsisson) as a cringe-artist due to his overly dramatic and awkward paid posts that often have the opposite effect of attracting young voters to the Biden campaign.

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!
