Gabe Newell 

Gabe Newell descended from heaven releasing the steam sale.

Newell's Law 

Applies during a sale via the Steam digital distribution platform. Newell's Law states "If you buy a discounted game before the last day of a sale, it will have a more substantial discount the next day." It is named for Gabe Newell, the CEO of Valve Software.

Alternate definition applies during non-sale events, in which case the decision is made after waiting and evaluating a game's worth to purchase at full retail, then the game goes on sale the very next weekend.
Gamer 1: "I bought the Civ4 complete pack yesterday for 33% off thinking it was a great deal, but if I had just waited until today I could have bought it for 75% off!"

Gamer 2: "Newell's Law."

Gabe Newell 

The co-founder and CEO of the video game studio known as Valve Software. Gabe serves as the unofficial face of Valve; the studio is widely associated with him and he is widely associated with the studio.

Valve are infamous for their long development cycles, with games that can be in development for as long as 9 years. Combined with frequent delays, these long development times have created the Valve time phenomenon.
Many in-jokes about these delays and long development times were formed. These jokes often make fun of the studio and Gabe himself, calling him lazy and mocking his weight. He is also pictured as a rather greedy man who wants to "keep Half Life 2 Episode 3 to himself" and commonly makes obscure excuses in order to delay it farther. One of the largest spin offs of this small meme is the nickname "Gaben".

Most users of these jokes are found in large Valve communities, such as the Team Fortress 2 community and the Half Life community.
Ex. 1:
A: "Why Valve aren't releasing Episode 3 yet?"
B: "Because Gabe Newell ate the Episode 3 game files."
Ex. 2:
A: "What happened to the new Left 4 Dead update? I should have been out almost 3 days ago!"
B: "Gabe delayed it again."

Riley Newell 

A girl I met about 4 years ago on a marching band field and started talking and love was found. She would look at me and I would look at her but we never ended up truly talking. One day we finally decided to tell each other we loved each other and we've been in a relationship for a year now and here is what I've learned. She's the most gorgeous woman to ever walk this earth and is my queen. She has the biggest hear of anyone ive ever met in my life. Her smile and laugh is contagious and truly deserves the world. I love you forever Riley Paige Newell, it's just the start of something great. Happy 1 year.
Did you hear that Aaron said hes gonna marry Riley Newell someday?

Gabe Newell 

A large hairy beast. Though rarely seen, this beast can be found in the United States. This is an endangered species so hunting it would be illegal.
Bigfoot is the closest representation I can think of.

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!
