Cheekbone polishing parties

What most people think Benedict Cumberbatch, Matt Smith and Tom Hiddleston have together, due to their well-defined cheekbones. (NOTE: Another post on Tumblr said that Colin Morgan joins them as a member of the Fellowship of Cheekbones, but that is not the focus of this definition.)

The entire thing began when someone asked Benedict during his Reddit AMA "Do you, Matt Smith and Tom Hiddleston have cheekbone polishing parties?"
Benedict's response was "We like nothing better than buffing our Zygoma. And imagining a horny time traveling long overcoat purple scarf wearing super sleuth nordic legend f**k fantasy. Get to work on that, internet."

This promptly set everyone trying to draw out what they thought the parties looked like and generally the spontaneous combustion of the Internet. Tom Hiddleston's reaction was epic as well, but II'm not going to bore you with it. You can look it up yourself. Ehehehe.
person 1: Damn, those cheekbones look sharper by the day. HIDDLESTON STOP FREAKING RUINING MY LIFE WITH YOUR CHEEKBONES! YOU TOO CUMBERBATCH! SMITH STOP LOOKING SO INNOCENT, YOU'RE GUILTY TOO! (screaming at pictures)

me: ...of course they ruin your life with just their cheekbones, I've experienced it too. Judging by these pictures, they've just had some more cheekbone polishing parties.

me: <wonders if *koffkoff* anything else happened...> <evil grin>

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.
