Disaster Friends

When two or more people generally dislike each other and want nothing to do with them. However, the antics of one will invariably rope the other(s) into it, and they are essentially forced to go along with it in order to preserve their sanity, life, or both.
"Hear about what happened with Fred and Michael the other day?"

"Those two hate each other, don't they? What happened?"

"Shenanigans is what happened. Fred needed a ride somewhere and Michael of all people was the only one available for taxi service. Apparently, Michael needed to do an 'emergency' errand mid-way, and it devolved into an hour long blunder around town. Fred had no choice than to help him with it as quickly as possible so he could just get to where he needed to go."

"I should frankly be surprised that they didn't murder each other at some point during all of that..."

"Heh. Disaster friends, those two are."

Someone who you don't really know, but with whom you're friends on Facebook, and whose life is clearly falling apart. You continue reading their status updates out of morbid curiosity, and for the guilty pleasure of watching a slow-motion trainwreck.
"Hey, have you heard Becky's pregnant *again*? And that her fiancé just broke up with her? And that she's apparently now converting to scientology?"

"Who's Becky again?"

"I'm not sure, she's one of my disaster friends."

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.

EBK stands for "Elite Ball Knowledge." 1 In internet slang, "ball knowledge" originally referred to a deep understanding of football/soccer or basketball, but it has evolved into a broader term for having a highly sophisticated, deep, or niche understanding of any specific topic (such as music, movies, or subcultures).
Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."

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.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.
