I have reconnected with an old high school girlfriend, but I am married and will never see her or ever contact her in any way physically, so she is my cylo, my cyber lover, since we sometimes share selfies and flirt and at times describe what we would like to do with one another if we could. But we never, ever will.

Dirty Cylo

A Dirty Cylo is when you take too much Benadryl, see the hat man, realize you accidentally took Viagra, and then proceed to make sweet, sweet love to a scarecrow in the abandoned Silo that's probably infested with all the demons your grandmother couldn't be bothered to exorcise- instead throwing the Ouija Boards she used down the hatch- which probably explains why the old toilet seat your buttcheeks are sitting on has been scribbled with sharpie to look like an Ouija board (because buying the real deal every weekend gets expensive). And instead of getting an STD from making sweet, sweet, passionate love to the scarecrow, you get infested with numerous demons- of which one is named George- who happened to be inhabiting the scarecrow you made sweet, sweet love to. And now he wants waffle fries, because of course he does.

Noun, plural. Singular: Cylon.

A bio-mechanical race of workers developed in a distant part of the galaxy by humans not of terrestrial origin. Forced to work as slaves, the Cylons eventually turned on their creators and nearly destroyed them before a cease fire was called.

The Cylons continued to evolve, and the latest versions are nearly identical to humans and may be able to mate and reproduce with them.

Still angry about their past treatment, the Cylons have once again set out to destroy all humans everywhere.
The Cylons are about to attack, are you prepared to die?

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.
