Dumpster Bike 

A bike found for free that another human has decided to put in a dumpster, donate and/or share the love of cycling to somebody else for free.

Dumpster bikes are often found street side on council pickups in certain areas in Australia. The council pickups are in some councils given to a selection of streets each week and allows people to put out roadside unwanted items that are destined to the refuse tip. These items are collected by the dumpster. It is common for people to drive around and pickup any items that take their fancy. This creates a system whereby people put out things for this purposes and not solely destined for the tip. What doesn’t get taken ends up at the tip.

The term Dumpster Bike was made cult by none other than Austin Reed - Colorado dingo legend that habitated in Sydney Australia for some say a wild period of time.

Austin ‘Dingo’ Reed would find dumster bikes frequently and share the love by firstly ‘dumsterising’ them and then giving them away to people with a new lease of life.

Dumsterising is simply using a black spray paint and crudely painting the majority of said found dumpster bike. Dumpsterising a bike in no way requires skill or meticulous work. In fact the opposite. Most dumpsterisations occur within 5-15 minutes of time.

The result is something that could be considered ‘hipster laissez-faire boho chic’.

To have seen, owned, ridden or even dumsterised a dumpster bike is a truly magnificent thing.
Hey, that’s a sick dumpster bike that Austin has.

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.
