throwaway 

(noun) A firearm that is acquired and used that has absolutely no direct or concrete connections with its temporary owner and user. More often than not such firearms are acquired for felonious purposes done in secret. Once such deeds have been completed the implement is then wiped clean of fingerprints and thrown away by the owner never to be reunited together again. Shhhhhhh…..
Dougie sure was a clever fellow, he also talked a lot of shit and raised a lot of hell. Because he enjoyed doing so he always kept a throwaway within arm’s reach in case somebody wanted to get cute and deep six his ass. But I tell ya he had to have deep-sixed a few himself cause I’ve seen him have at least half a dozen throwaways since I’ve known him.

I have a glock 9 but when I want to kill someone, I use a cheap throwaway 22 caliber rifle. Basically I pull up to a nigguz house and wait. Then I see him in the scope and I bust a round in his fuckin head. The rifle only cost $110 so I throw it away after I clean the fingerprints off.

An example of a throwaway character: Bob had a mom who raised him but then he left to sail the seven and a half seas.

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.
