digitard
Digitard: An individual so immersed in digital technologies (smartphones, social media etc) that they have lost the ability to exercise common sense in practical, day-to-day, real world situations.
A digitard tends to claim superior tech-savvy, particularly as it relates to smartphones, social media or any flavor-of-the-month technology. A digitard does navigate the latest mobile/social media interface with ease - but lacks the slightest clue as to how the back-end of the given technology works, nor the ability to use the technology effectively.
Digitards tend to spew minutia of their daily lives on social media, have an incestuous habit of posting pictures of their latest meal/significant other/status etc or brag about being the first to own the latest gadget . While these announces may be harmless to others, a digitard's over-reliance on technology can lead to some unpleasant real-life situations:
1. Getting hit by a car while crossing the street, because they had their eyes glued to the smartphone.
2. Getting stranded in the middle of nowhere because the GPS coordinates they found online just had to, had to, had to be correct.
3. Losing the innate human capacity to establish meaningful, fulfilling and lasting real-world connections that can lead to life-long friendships, love and success in all aspects of life.
One key point to remember: A digitard does not consume digital technologies - the digital technologies consume the digitard.

He used digital software to bring the old school video game characters and icons to life against the live action sequence; creating a seamless visual effects story blending real life and digital in a way only a diginary could.

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.
