For Show Guy

A guy that technically does not have a brain which society could consider useful. He is probably jacked or could at least model at Abercrombie. A girl will date him, only because of his looks, and he is often actually a little bitch. Basically he is a mannequin with a heartbeat who can somewhat form sentences, but can never actually add anything useful to a conversation or a relationship. He is simply dated because he looks appealing to a woman's friends.
Look at that tool, he's just one of those for show guys. She only dates him because he looks good.

Bi- for show 

When a girl claims she's 'bi-' or 'bi-curious' just to attract the attention of another girl to either turn her boyfriend on or attract other guys. Usually happens at swing clubs or in bars after midnight. But when the time comes to 'put-up or shut-up' she turns shy and backs off.
us: She's hot and says she's bi- but her boyfriend is just ok, let's get a room and you 2 girls can have some fun.

them (after we get the room): 'I'm not really bi-, I just like to play with girls on the dance floor'.

us: Damn, that bitch was just 'bi- for show'

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.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
