Waldo 

When a man goes into stealth mode once he is in a relationship and the inevitable complications begin to surface.

About the same as going ninja except he is still visible at his usual hangouts. Naturally, he will not present himself and repeatedly fades into a group of friends or complete strangers. An exhausting effort must be used to discover him and it will most likely give you a headache.

The female counterpart is known as Carmen Sandiego

Seeker: “I’ve been talking to this guy for a month and out of nowhere he went Waldo on me. I saw his F-150 at the bar last night but couldn’t find him. I even sent a text and he said he was buyin drinks.”

Waldo 

In the special effects business, any mechanism that operates using a 1:1 movement ratio rather than using conventional input devices (levers, switches, knobs, etc.) or preprogrammed movement sequences. Waldo devices are often used for filming complicated live-action sequences, such as smoothly controlling a humanoid or lifelike animatronics system, making a radio-controlled full-size vehicle act exactly as if there was a real driver behind the wheel in a stunt sequence, etc. Simply put, they are used when intuitive controls are needed above all else.

The Mythbusters used a Waldo rig to make a bus roll itself over in their Demolition Derby Special.

Doc Ock's tentacles in Spider-Man 2 were controlled by a miniature Waldo setup. Where the controllers put the tentacles in the model, they moved behind the actor.

waldo 

A typographical or grammatical error in any type of electronic correspondence that you send to others (normally at work). The error can be subtle or obvious but it's just like the Waldo books where you have to search, sometimes for a very long time, in order to find the error.

Here is an obvious example:

I can't believe that your leaving the company on such bad terms.

In this case, "your" should actually be "you're" to be grammatically correct.
