Robert knew that whore Betsy had his wallet. They were the only two people in the fucking room!!! Was she so stupid that she thought he’s so stupid as to not know that SHE HAD HIS WALLET!!! Retelling the story to visiting friend, Robert continued, “So I thought to myself ‘ Bitch, save some face, and your life and return whats mine’, so I decided to give her an out and said, even though I had not stepped inside there, “Maybe it is in the bathroom” and went there giving her time to put my goddamn wallet back where she had taken it from”.

Hym "Yep. I tried to give the people it's happening to and the people doing it and the bystanders an out but you just don't want to let them take the out, do you? You know that your judgment isn't very good. And you signing off on this is the byproduct of that exact not very good judgement. But you'll get tired of the child murder eventually. You'll figure if out."

pulling an out of this world 

When two people or characters, who have romantically liked eachother for ages but hasnt admitted it to themselves or eachother but everyone knows, get together and it becomes weird and awkward and overall horrifying to all who happen to witness it and they act all corny with eachother. Much like a certain episode of the cartoon Kim Possible where Kim stops an evil guy from blowing up a planet or something and at the end of that cursed episode Kim tells Ron that he's "out of this world". *shudder*
I almost vomited when Ron and Hermione pulled an out of this world at the end of the 7th HP book.

Oh dear God please tell me Ranma and Akane wont start pulling an out of this world. I think I'd be scarred for life.

Frothability 

The measure of an emotional and over zealous consumer in an upwardly charging market, also known as a bull market. It's characterized by rising asset prices, increased investor confidence, and favorable growth in the markets, bro.
The frothability was evident as over-zealous consumers eagerly engaged in bidding wars, driving property prices to unsustainable levels reminiscent of previous speculative bubbles.

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.

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.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."

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.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.
