pulling a pinny 

When someone is two lazy to come up with a creative proposal for their future wife, they pull what's known in the eastern U.S as "Pulling a Pinny" - That is, walking into the room wherever the girl is (preferably her bedroom while she's half asleep. This way she won't be expecting it, SURPRISE!) getting down on one knee and wiping it out.

You're lame ass proposal that is. Just ask her to marry you, don't bother being creative at all.

You know she's going to say yes, you've got this "in the bag." So on the most special day of her life, just be a lazy asshole and Pull a Pinny.
You've been dating a girl for 6 months. You know she's madly in love with you. Whenever you propose you know she'll say yes. Now the honorable thing to do would be to create this wonderful proposal and surprise her. Make her feel special, it's the most wonderful day of her life. What do you do though? You start Pulling a Pinny. You walk into her room while she's half asleep (clothing situation: unknown), you get down on one knee, and you kill her hopes and dreams of marrying a half decent human being. SMH

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.
