"Show, don't tell" is something I could never describe, I only really know when I'm doing it vs when I'm not doing it. My rough draft of story du jour is mostly telling. but I'm also not trying to pass any of that off as good writing, or writing advice. Also, even if above example WAS showing, it stops meaning anything when you're just pulling out the same canned descriptions over and over.
