Play him off, Keyboard Cat 

Play him off, Keyboard Cat is an internet meme that broke in early 2009. The meme features a video of a cat playing a keyboard added as a punchline to a fail video. The original video of Keyboard Cat was shot in the 1980s and uploaded to YouTube by the cat's owner Charlie Schmidt in 2007. Another YouTuber, Brad O'Farrell, uploaded the first Play him off, Keyboard Cat video in February 2009, combining a clip of a man in a weelchair falling down an escalator with the Keyboard Cat clip. The meme started to spread soon after as other users began creating more Play him (or her) off, Keyboard Cat clips, and msm coverage followed. Keyboard Cat (real name Fatso) died in 2000.
Example of a Play him off, Keyboard Cat video:
Bill O'Reilly: We'll do it live! Fuck it! I'll write it and we'll do it live! Fucking thing sucks!
Keyboard Cat: Doo doo doo doo, doo doo-doo doo.

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!
