Words you can keep

lasering the target 

When your wingman keeps wingmanning beyond the call of duty because you haven't sealed the deal.
Target: "I don't know if I should go home with him."

Wingman: "He's a great guy, but he's kind of awkward at first....and he loves puppies and children as he volunteers every weekend at a puppy rescue and orphan center."

Target: "Tell me more."

Next morning -

You: "Dude, I wouldn't have brought her home if you weren't lasering the target."

Hit The Target 

The type of villain that would strike fear in any person
Stampy: *sees that his dogs are missing
Stampy: That Hit The Target is up to no good again

the target effect 

When you go somewhere and end up spending WAY more money than you originally intended. Like when you go to Target for a few things and end up with a cart full of things you didn't mean to buy.
I went to H&M yesterday to buy a pair of pants and suffered from the Target Effect. I spent $350 on new clothes. 😭

The male counterpart of a "Push Present." Thoughtful gift given to the guy by the girl after conception.

The Target Situation 

1
When an insane cult that supports destroying women's sports (for women) and letting men go into women's restroom and do bad things, burning down crap, and putting walmarts in black neighborhoods out of business
put up clothes for children of topics that are totally inappropriate for kids and parents were righteously indolent about not only having to say they can't explain this crap to them 'wait until you get older my child', but that they were supposed to (which is insane and immoral)...
and people got angry for some (in)sane reason totally incomprehensible to people who aren't just deranged but different apparently.

Target had to
2 (When target) had to remove the inappropriate and unhealthy indoctrination material in fear of 'The Bud Lite Situation'.
The target Situation:
Target;
'Uh, oh.
We need to remove the cultish indoctrination crap that is inappropriate for kids and is upsetting parents despite the financial consequences from the esb

or we are going to find ourselves in a
(The) Bud lite Situation.
If we don't,
stockholders might sue us for sabotaging their stocks.
Because we only care about money though, and still uphold Bud Lite original 'shelf space', we need to do math on what will loose us the most, the line of credit hit, or angry republican extremists from the far right.' (Actually just parents just rip shnit /shiz about having to explain front butt S words/concepts/ terminology to their children).

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!
