One who wanders, observes, and actively participates in life. A nomad that finds happiness in the complex simplicity of existence.

Not just a traveler, a terraquat is open to experiencing everything the world has to offer, and accepts change with open arms.
"I swear Daphne visited at least 20 countries last year." "She's such a terraquat."

"One day I'll be a terraquat and see the world!"

As an astronaut is to the space program, the terranaut is to living on the earth ... only snootier.

A pseudo-profession that any of us can claim to have.

It sounds real if you say it with a straight face.
You are at a bar and the girl you're trying to pick up asks, "So, what do you do?"

In the past you've used, "I'm a doctor (or pilot, NFL Quarterback or other professions you're NOT) to impress her to get into her boudoir.

They don't work on today's savvy single. Besides she may BE a doctor, or pilot, or other professions ... and actually KNOW an NFL Quarterback. Getting busted sucks.

Tell her, "I'm a terranaut working in the private sector, now. The work is exciting, but dangerous. In fact, the reason I'm in town is to escort my (friend, boss, replacement, government inspector, etc) back to the jobsite. I'm leaving tomorrow. For security reasons I can't say more about that.

But what about you? What do you do?"

This makes you sound (1) interested in her, (2) like you used to work for the government. (3) The job is a little dangerous and (4) very mysterious - things that attract women. Also, the bit about you leaving make the one-night-stand more acceptable.

Man - you're in like Flint, now!

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!
