Ball-Sac Polisher
“Ball-Sac Polisher” (or “BSP”) is both a noun and verb: it refers to a man who worships a scratch golfer or blue-blood regardless of his character; as well as his actions. The BSP will seek the opinion of the most clueless scratch player or blue-blood over that of an imminent authority on any subject at all including engineering, science, medicine and astrophysics; he will buy unlimited drink and food for a scratch player or blue-blood in return for no more than an acknowledgement of existence, smile, nod or look of approval, without any expectation or possibility of reciprocation. A BSP is akin to a lapdog, sidekick, chump or loser.
BSP is a term of art coined in the 1990’s by a doctor in Troy, NY, who noticed that many newly admitted public employment and other working class members to the city’s country club (admitted when the economy caused the once exclusive country club to essentially be a quasi-public course) would do anything just to obtain the slightest acknowledgment or glance of approval from a scratch player or long-standing blue-blood member. Scratch players and blue-bloods at The CC of Troy have accepted the adoration and offerings of the BSP so eagerly that their symbiotic relationship has established the prevalent culture at that club, and a precedent for many others, which exists to this day.

"Johnny is such a ball-sac polisher."
"Here comes Phil, followed by his entourage of obsequious BSPs."
"John wouldn't be such a bad guy if he wasn't always ball-sac polishing that untalented hack.

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.

TLDU
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!
