The Mississippi Gulf Coast; the area within southern Mississippi that is along the Gulf of Mexico. Best known for its beaches, casinos, Mardi Gras parades, seafood, and military installations. It is one of the most diverse areas in Mississippi. Comprised of Jackson, Harrison, and Hancock counties. The cities on The Coast are (from east to west): Moss Point, Pascagoula, Gautier, St. Martin, Ocean Springs, D'Iberville, Biloxi, Gulfport, Long Beach, Pass Christian, Bay St. Louis, and Waveland. Locals may also refer to the area as "The 228" (228 being the area code).

mapping the coast 

1. The conversational equivalent to the phenomenon of coastline measurements* - getting so bogged down in the details of something that explaining it becomes impossible.

* The closer one looks at a coastline, the longer it gets.

2. Getting repeatedly lost/tangential while speaking and never completing a thought or idea. Often the result of being high.

Cedric: It was last Tuesday; no I think Wednesday morning at 11:30, well, 11:40; no it was Tuesday because I was wearing my blue shirt-

Bored Colleague: Cedric, you're mapping the coast. Shut up or just tell me what happened.

2.
Dude 1: So, have you thought about what I said last night?

Dude 2: Yeah, you spent 3 hours mapping the coast and I nearly died of boredom. I'm not getting high with you again.

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!
