pile-o-tricks 

pile-o-tricks — How the word “politics” is said in Black Barber Shops in major metropolitan urban centers. The use of this word recognizes the “Charlie Brown” reality that “Lucy will move the American ball” whenever any minority group makes progress.

*** More women, and minorities in college: change the admission rules — pile-o-tricks!!!!!

*** More women in the workforce and not at home: change the abortion laws — pile-o-tricks!!!!!!

*** More minority voting: gerrymandering —pile-o-tricks!!!!!!!!!

*** Develop a work skill: the fine fine print of your contract has a non-competition clause. You can’t do the same job in 200 mile radius of your place of employment for more money — PILE-O-TRICKS!!!!!!

*** Too many immigrants: ignore the poem Emma Lazarus poem: New Colossus on the Statue of Liberty — PILE-O-TRICKS!!!!!

*** White Domestic Terrorism: Boys will be boys —PILE-O-TRICKS!!!!!!!!!!

It’s almost certain that no matter which side of the “football” you’re on; you can come up with your own examples. Just say the quiet part out loud!

The Charlie Brown analogy is based on the theory that Charlie Brown is a high-yellow Black child with Alopecia Areata — remember, we never see any of the parents in any Peanuts comics or cartoons. Prove me wrong.

Do the research!!!!!

And remember: “Grit your teeth Charlie Brown; lace up your shoes; screw up your determination; and, GRIT YOUR TEETH!!!!! Kick that ball Charlie Brown…KICK THAT BALL!!!!!!!!
It’s all pile-o-tricks and lawyers man! I found a tech job just like mine making twice as much money. Aced the interview and the test only to find out that my company has me under a non-competition contract; and, I can’t be hired by another company. They called where I worked and I got fired because they found out I was looking for a job. Pile-o-tricks, man…PILE-O-TRICKS.

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!
