buddy call 

Similar to a booty call except that when you arrive for your booty, you discover the person only had intentions of cuddling. Like a cuddle call, except the callee doesn't know they're not going to get any until they get there. A false alarm, if you will.
Tim was so psyched when Jenny booty-called him, but when he got there, he had major blueballs since it turned out to be just a buddy call.

drive call buddy 

A call that you make when on the drive to work or when on a long drive on the highway. Typically on a "drive call" you are really bored and have a default "drive call buddy” to pass the time of this long routine and boring drive. In this call you are very likely to complain about your boss, your job or just about your life in general. Sometimes on this call you are talking about business deals that will never materialize because the intent is really just a "drive call". It should also be noted that the "drive call" recipient may sometimes result in talking to someone that you would otherwise not call and in desperation of your long trip car boredom you will even call that one person that you really would rather watch desperate housewives in 90 degree weather than to have a conversation with “that” person. "Drive Calls" usually end abruptly and that is when the caller arrives to their destination.
Example #1
Simi (Caller): Hey buddy,
Dukes: ur on ur way home from work?
Simi (Caller): how’d u know?
Dukes: I'm your drive call buddy.

Simi (Caller): sweet
Simi (Caller): click
Dukes: Huh???, I guess he just got home

Example # 2

Simi (Caller): Hey Yossi, sup?
Yossi: not much,
Simi (Caller): sup?
Yossi: nm, u bored or something?
Simi (Caller): yeah, on my way to work, just placing a drive call. U know.

Yossi: o, got it.

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.
