Words you can keep

I think we can rule out a…

I think we can rule out a… — an endlessly productive word formula designed to explain the gravity of a situation through a poetically oppositional comparison.
How to use “ I think we can rule out a…” as a word formula:

1) Undercover surveillance team observing a cross burning at a Neo-Nazi rally on the February 24 and 25th 2023 day of Hatred:

Well, I guess we can rule out this as being a Bar Mitzvah.

2) A hotel worker in New Orleans brings towels to the orgy room at a swingers convention:

Well, I think we can rule out finding Gandhi in that room.

3) A pork barbecue food truck vendor dives by a park were a vegan gathering of THE RAINBOW TRIBE is being held:

I think we can rule out finding anyone in that park who wants a good carne asada.

This is why we can't have nice things 

No matter how nice of a thing you have, no matter how hard you may try, someone will always find a way to fuck it up.
Josh: Hey bro can I borrow your phone?
Me: I dunno man, I just bought this. I don't even have a case on it yet!
Josh: Chill dude, I ain't gonna break it. It'll just take a second..
Me: Okay...
Josh:*Immediately drops it on the ground, denting the corner*
Me: God damn it Josh, this is why we can't have nice things.

There's Nothing we Can do

When Napoleon Bonaparte was stranded on an island and his fellow men died, he was left almost entirely alone, and as the enemies closed in and he utters the word "There's Nothing we Can do".
"Yo there's a really hot girl I like bro"
"Damn dude, but she's got a bf"
"There's Nothing we Can do"
aka giving up.
The act of abandoning unwanted email addresses and online identities.
Have you ever considered that her failure to respond to your emails might relate to her webandoning that university address upon graduation?

This is why we can't have nice things 

What a mother yells whenever something gets broke

Mother: "THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS!"

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!
