Words you can keep

statesticles 

Statistics relating to the testicles or the male genitalia area in general. Also a fun word to say around your friends.
We need to find more statesticles before we can diagnose his genitalia problem.

statistically significant other 

A significant other whose status is not created by a agreed-upon relationship status but by how much time is spent with them. Could also be considered a behavioral significant other.

Combination of "statistically significant" and "significant other."
Since he spent twice as much time with Karen as with any of the other girls he was dating, his friends called Karen his statistically significant other.

Statistical Mechanics

The belief that thermodynamic systems can be expressed using statistics. It is mostly used to more accurately express a system where there are many microstates involving microscopically observable quantities (e.g. kinetic energy of particle 1, 2, 3, ... , n-1, n or Potential energy of particle 1, 2, 3, ..., n-1, n as opposed to quantities like pressure or volume).

What the author of this article should be revising now, Statistical Mechanics (or stat mech as it's more conveniently known) can be described by many physics students as a "cluster-fuck of endless equations and probability distribution functions designed to intentionally screw up their mind altogether".

It is widely known that stat mech is utterly incomprehensible until the actual exam day, when all the nonsensical examples and equations (most notably finding the entropy of an elastic band expressed as a function of the number of links in said band, and the expression of gas molecules as masses on springs) seem to reach perfect clarity and they tend to walk out with at least a 2-1.
"You going to statistical mechanics?"
"No fucking way, I'm making noodles for lunch!"

Statistical Extraploitation 

To exploit a sports statistic by extrapolating it over an entire season, despite a tiny sample size. This is wildly popular on the second day of the Major League Baseball season.
D-Bag: Hey did you see the opener yesterday? Soriano hit two home runs. Christ, if he keeps that up he'll hit 324 home runs this year!!

Guy#2: And if you keep your Statistical Extraploitations up, you'll be more of a D-bag.

statistical anomaly

Fate, or extremely low chances, or likelihood, of an event happening on its own due to statistical data proving otherwise.
I didn't think I was ever going to see you again! Then you turn up on my doorstep like-
A statistical anomaly?
Well I was gunna say fate, but yes.

statistical unicorn 

The term for an event, happening or situation that's commonly accepted to be true, but actually exists infrequently or not at all.
Politicians spend a lot of time arguing about how tax hikes will ruin small business owners, but the increases only apply to those making over $250,000/year and the median amount an owner of a small employing business draws from his/her firm in a year is about $72,500. In fact, 6 percent earn less than $12,500 and only 5 percent earn $250,000 or more.

Therefore, small business owners affected by this issue are statistical unicorns.

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

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!
