Tenderfoot 

American slang dating back to the time of the old west. It was used by people who were established in frontier towns to describe someone new, either to the area or the prevailing conditions; someone lacking experience and who was perhaps a little naive. Mildly disparaging but without any real malice it is still used occasionally to describe someone who is just starting out on their chosen career.
Despite having been to university, you’re still a tenderfoot when you start in the workplace.

TenderToast 

TenderToast is a surprisingly good and useful variation of the common toast we all enjoy.

TenderToast is made by placing two slices of bread into one toaster slot. The slot must be wide enough and is usually found on any toaster that accepts bagels. Best served with crunchy-side out.

Advantages of TenderToast:
- Abiltiy to make four slices of toast in a two-slice toaster.
- Toasts one side only. Crunchy on one side, warm and soft on the other.
- Makes a better BLT, fried egg sandwich or burger-bun substitute.

Carol and I were making fried-egg sandwiches one day. Needing four slices of toast, I was too lazy to wait and just put all four slices of bread in at the same time....turned out better than expected!!!
"Carol.....let's make it with TenderToast"

Tenderloin 

The Tenderloin (aka The 'Loin or T.L) is a relatively small neighborhood located in downtown San Francisco, CA. Its borders are roughly the triangle made by Geary Blvd, Market St and Van Ness Ave. Some consider the Civic Center and Union Square to be a part of the Tenderloin.

Although the origin of its name is up for debate, no one denies this neighborhood is one of the most dangerous in the City, mainly known for problems like excessive drugs, prostitution, and a high number of homeless people. It's also one of the most dirty and grimy areas of San Francisco. It's highly recommended that visitors to this area exercise their street smarts and stay aware of their surroundings. If you look like a victim in the 'Loin, you'll probably be one. It's no wonder why there's a special police unit just for the Tenderloin.

The Tenderloin has some good things going for it too, however. It's home to some of the best ethnic restaurants in San Francisco, theaters, and hotels. It's also one of the most affordable areas of San Francisco.
Girl: The Tenderloin scares me!
Boy: Just be smart. Don't hang around at night and be aware.

thunderbox 

A toilet
This is Australian slang
It is called a thunderbox because sometimes when you go to the loo you fart, and it sounds like thunder. I don't think I have to explain the box part.
Ah that felt good! I did a big one in the thunderbox just now! Boy it smells!

butter my tenderloaf 

The act of giving a lubricated handjob in the kitchen using only items found within said kitchen. Common items used in buttering a tenderloaf range from: the natural (butter, olive oil, Crisco, bacon grease, Pam cooking spray), the freaky (Hersey's chocolate syrup, Egg whites, truffle oil), to the downright painful (honey, hot sauce, soapy brillo pad).
It sucked that my girl was on the rag last night, but that bitch sure does know how to butter my tenderloaf... Not only do we now have nothing left to cook with, we can't even do the dishes cause the brillo pad is all used up!

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!
