horseheaded 

Something that works, but was designed in such a clumsy and complicated manner, that you spend a frustratingly long time attempting to figure out how to use it. Often encountered in "specialty applications" (like music, financial, or statistical software) where the designer was more concerned with maximizing features and satisfying the "experts", than on making a simple user interface.
Imagine typing in an unfamiliar editor. All you want to do is change the size of the font. You discover that you must save your current document in a new font size (that you can only specify under "Appearance Options" on a subtab in the menu bar) and then re-open it. You could not figure this out on your own ... and either bugged someone more familiar to explain it, or had to chase down the explanation on Google. Ugh, how horseheaded!!

Horseheads 

A town where the high schooler's want to get out so bad and then when they do, they want to come back. The town is not as bad as everything puts it out to be. Horseheads has some of the most musically talented people in the area. The sports are decent. Just depends on which sport you do. They call it " Whoresheads" because some of the girls do put themselves out there but not every girl does. There is almost no crime rate what so ever. The town is always there for everyone. Hated by other schools for being the "Rich" school when in the winter time it's below 0 in the classrooms, because they can't afford fricken heat. You'll meet some of the best people in the world in this little town and friends that will last a life time. They throw the best parties and the people are the most fun to hang out with. Horseheads really is the place to grow up and grow old with someone in.
I heard some kids in Horseheads are throwing a party tonight! It's about to be a banger.

The dude in the donut shop is obviously on a run. He's doing the horsehead display the whole time I've been here. I should know I have been there myself, sad...

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!
