Lexical-Redirect 

When you're in a conversation and can't think of a word for something and struggle to find the right word or words, and your brain keeps coming up with the wrong words, just roll with it!

The Lexical-Redirect is, in the spirit of Cunningham's Law, the art of intentionally uttering the wrong word, knowing that simply by doing so, your brain will correct itself and think of the right word.
To another family member - "Hey, we're almost out of.. toothpick-earwigs... because, apparently Q-tips don't exist according to my brain."

Family member - "Nice Lexical-Redirect, I was scared for a moment that we had earwigs on toothpicks somewhere in our house."

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!
