Nam-Stache

A mustache variant. Specifically, a mad dog (or Hulk Hogan if you prefer) that only combat Vietnam vets can grow after they've reached the age of 55. Only after you have looked eye ball to eye ball with the man in the black pajamas (a worthy fucking adversary) will you be able to grow this mustache.

Most, if not all, of the gentleman sporting this stache will be wearing a Vietnam Veteran hat and a pair of gold aviator sunglasses They may, or may not, also have a kick ass nickname, like "Dead Eye" or "Bunny".

Dad-stache 

The dad-stache is a unique moustache that is perhaps the pinnacle of all staches. While it appears similar to a 70s porn stache, it is not quite the same since it is not as creepy.

Males can only grow one of these badboys once they have had a kid (in particular a son). It is a biologic reaction that has evolved through the years because such a moustache commands respect from ones offspring and in general demonstrates clear bad-assery.
You kind of had this nasty scum stache vibe going on until your wife had your son. Then all the sudden you developed a wicked dad-stache that made Burt Reynolds look like a pubescent cheeseball!

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!
