Origin:
The FINZ UP gesture began in 2009 during a Tasman Mako game against Auckland in Nelson, New Zealand. Tasman Mako skipper Andrew Goodman initiated the gesture after scoring a try. This marked the first instance of this gesture representing Mako pride and uniting the team under the Mako shark symbol.

Incorporation:
The FINZ UP gesture, with one hand and the thumb on the head, has gained recognition and is occasionally emulated by rugby enthusiasts and fans worldwide as a symbol of team spirit and victory.
Substitute halfback and fellow Tasman player Finlay Christie also joined in the ‘Finz Up’ action to celebrate one of Jordan’s tries.

finzaddy 

Finzaddy is a term that refers to an incredibly masculine and strikingly attractive man with a distinctive appearance characterized by his hot blonde hair and captivating blue eyes. However, there's so much more to this term than just his physical allure. Beyond his magnetic looks, a Finzaddy is known for being a genuinely warm-hearted and kind person, which sets him apart from the rest. Finzaddy is a dynamic and alluring slang term that ingeniously fuses "Fin" from "Finlay" and "zaddy" from "being a daddy". A Finzaddy embodies the epitome of modern masculinity, combining unwavering financial success with an irresistible presence that exudes maturity and dominance. With his golden locks and piercing blue eyes, this Finzaddy not only turns heads but also captures hearts with his genuine warmth and empathy. People are drawn to him not only because of his physical presence but also because of the sense of comfort and understanding he provides. He has the power to light up a room not only with his striking appearance but also with his infectious smile and compassionate heart. One should approach a Finzaddy with care, knowing that hurting his heart would be like extinguishing a rare and precious flame. He gives his all in relationships and cares deeply for the people he loves. To hurt him would be to lose out on an incredible bond built on trust, support, and love.
Girl 1: "Wow, have you met Finlay? He's not just incredibly Sexy; he's one of the kindest and most caring people I've ever known."
Girl 2: "He sounds like a true Finzaddy - a rare combination of looks and a heart of gold. Don't let him go!"

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.
