A medical term used to describe the orientation, as seen on an Xray,of a man's penis with respect to his lower extremity injury. A positive Throck-Morton sign is when the penis points to the side of the injury.
Senior Doctor: Mr. Jones has a femur and tibial fracture of his right leg.
Intern: Incidentally, I note on the x-ray that was taken of his pelvis that his johnson is pointing to the right - the same side as his injuries.
Senior Doctor: That, my young man, is a positive Throck Morton Sign.
Me: Hey, did you see my cousin Throckmorton skateboarding last night bro? He kiiiilled it.
Johnathan (or something I don't remember his name): Please set me free I don't know you or Throcky I just want to go back home I have a family and I really don't like being tethered to your basement wall it's cold and i'm hungry and itchy
"Your cousin Throckmorton skateboards from rest down a curved, frictionless ramp. If we treat Throckmorton as a particle, he moves through a quarter-circle with radius 3.00 m. Throcky and his skateboard have a total mass of 25.0 kg."
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.
