An emerging counter-culture forming in the early 2000's, mostly in the north-east and tri-state area. The synthesis of two prior subcultures; hipster and hardcore. Like hipsters, trabbies hold a heavy interest in far-left, liberal, or libertarian social and political views. Welcomes the local poor and immigrant populations with open arms. Non-violent. Probably speaks spanish and definitely a chain-smoker. "Trabbie" comes from the Spanish word "Trabajador" or worker. The difference between a hipster and a trabbie is that hipsters are upper class, while trabbies tend to make up the intellectual working class. Many were formerly middle or lower-middle class and were forced into the working class due national economic influences. Their suburban communities are usually being gentrified.
Trabbies tend to have shorter hair, with some fringe or even shaved heads due to the daily labor performed. They will also be extremely skinny and always appear tired for the same reason.
Feed caps, fur hoods, multiple belts, sleeveless sweatshirts and a "scruffy" look is common. Commonly wears black shoes or work boots. NEVER leather as he/she is a vegetarian/vegan.
Trabbies reject the prevalent angst and depression within the "scene". Most are non-violent and choose to love their lives instead of hating it. This is largely influenced by posi-hardcore.
Will listen to; 1905, Rise Against, Refused, Choking Victim, Against Me!, etc...
"Hah, there's that trabbie with the two-belts making friends with the spicks again!"

A combination of "Trump" and "babble," this word includes the type of speech used by blowhard idiots that rambles nonsensically and in circles, or blaming and accusatory rhetoric from a narcissistic buffoon that offers no solution to a supposed problem. Egocentric tirades and divisive ploys fit here. Noun.
The trabble offered in the misguided cult leader's speech served only to confuse the crowd and incite anger in its constituents.

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!
