Words you can keep
A picture that includes yourself (see selfie) and at least one other person, usually in the background, who is completely unaware that their picture was taken.

Short for "stealthy selfie" and usually performed between friends as a good natured prank, stelfies are considered a whimsical and fun pastime.

There are those who take pictures of other people and post them in public places without their permission but mainstream stelfie enthusiasts do not support this practice.
I caught George picking his nose when I took this stelfie at the concert last night.

A photograph resemblant of oneself, and can look as if it was taken by someone else. People like me who use a Macbook, or people who have a laptop fitted with a camera can take these "stealth" selfies with the aid of Photo Booth, or similar programmes/apps. It is called a stelfie because you took the photo yourself without the aid of holding your camera phone up to a mirror (BAD selfie) or without the amateur shot of having your arm held out to take such a photo.

Hence, laptop photographs taken of oneself are taken stealthily and thus called "stelfies".
I can't tell if this photograph was taken by a genuine photographer, or if it's some Macbook or laptop carrying guy's stelfie.

morning selfie

The moment you wake up, you grab your phone and take a picture of yourself while still in bed.

The rule is you are not allowed to fix your hair, put on make-up, turn on the lights, or even remove the crusty stuff from your eyes. The first thing you will see will be the flash from the camera. Then you post the picture to social media.
Jane: Is that what you looked like when you woke up?

Tom: Yes. It was my morning selfie. It is the new trend, but not everyone has the guts to do it.

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!
