Netu (Teotl)
The cosmic forces, gods, and raw energies of the Aztec universe.
(Note: While the word "Netu" is sometimes tossed around in modern online roleplay or niche fantasy circles, the actual, historically accurate Nahuatl term for the Aztec gods is Teotl—plural: Teteo).
To the Aztecs, a Teotl wasn’t just a personified god with a cool outfit; it was the literal living fabric of reality, nature, and time. The Aztec pantheon features iconic, terrifyingly awesome figures like Quetzalcoatl (the feathered serpent), Huitzilopochtli (the sun and war god), and Tezcatlipoca (the smoking mirror).
Thanks to games like Smite, anime, and movies like Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (featuring K'uk'ulkan), Aztec mythology has experienced a massive internet glow-up. In the lore, these gods are notorious for demanding high maintenance. The Aztecs believed the universe was on a constant countdown to the apocalypse, and the only way to keep the sun moving and the Teteo happy was through intense rituals, offerings, and—most famously—human blood to feed the cosmic balance.

Netu (Teotl) “Bro, Aztec mythology is brutal. The Teteo didn't just want your prayers; they literally wanted your heart to keep the sun from exploding.”
“I’m playing a character inspired by Quetzalcoatl in my D&D campaign, channeling that pure Teotl energy.”

"These trolls are such Neturtles, they always think they're superior to everyone when it comes to being on the internet. But I betchu they're a bunch of little pussies in real life. LOL!!!"

Was feeling kinda bored last night, so decided to get some neturbation on. Sadly, Google came up with no results so it was kind of an anti-climax...

pod person
A person pretending to be something they aren't, or an impostor. This is inferred because of the old alien movies where alien pods appear on earth and the "pod people" dispose of the humans and slowly reproduce the bodies, pretending to be humans.
The pod person was pretending to be my father, but I knew that he was an alien when he acted differently than my father ever would have.

dead drop
A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.
Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.
A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.
A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.

No Surprises Wedding
A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.
This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
