/daʊs/ v. tr.: The act of slamming some liquids almost directly subsequent to swallowing something of a high-degree temperature, all while on an empty stomach.

The act of dousing is usually needed in circumstances such as the one in the aforementioned definition because there is, so to speak, no "safe ground" for the "proximity mine" to land on in the consumers stomach, thus, it explodes, searing the gastric layer in the process. The best way to stop this exuberant form of pain in its tracks could be performed by Dousing the explosion with a nice swig o' milk from the nearest source.

WARNING: "Dousing" should never be even vaguely confused with "Dowsing", a renaissancious type of magical divination employed in attempts to locate ground water. The latter is retarded, and thus completely opposite of the former in terms of a good idea.

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.
