ender
1. (n, proper, lit.) - refers to Ender Wiggin, a character in a series of science-fiction novels by Orson Scott-Card. This character was famous for his instant mastery of any game he could learn to play, and also for being a brilliant strategist/leader, so much so that it was very annoying to others.
2a. (n, slang, games) - Someone (usually a new player) who learns a game rapidly and seems to dominate the AI/opponents naturally. Also refers to a new player who always seems to end up as the leader or final decision-maker in team efforts, even when not the official leader of the team.
2b. (n, slang, games) - Refers to when a player suddenly comes up with a desperate strategy (sometimes brilliant, but often just odd) which leads to an easy win, usally against stacked odds. As is the case with many online real-time-strategy and first-person-shooter videogames, this usually involves cheap or dirty tactics which frustrate the other players.
**NOTE - Definitions 2a and 2b are no longer used as much, and for the most part Definitions 3a and 3b are used instead.**
3a. (n, slang, games) - Refers to a player who is the complete opposite of the type described above; i.e. the player is absolutely horrible at videogames, or leading a team. This type of player is also famous for trying to win on his own rather than work in teams. Can refer to being horrible at dexterity-based games or strategy-based games.
3b. (n, slang, games) - Situation where a player panics, making a poor decision that costs him or his team the game. Basically, the opposite of the situation in 2b.
4. (slang, games) Refers to someone who gets too absorbed into a fast-paced videogame and begins to become over-excited or panicky. (It's really a twist on wiggin)

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.

Blexas
Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.
Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.

Ratfucker
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
