Falcon Syndrome

Falcon Syndrome, or "Falcons" for short, may take years to develop, and, when in the final stages, may blind patient with hubris, ultimately leaving them unable to communicate in any form except self-flattery when reminded that not everyone who isn't from their town is retarded.

Side effects include, but are not limited to:
- Dependency on social media, i.e Twitter, Facebook, etc...
- Narcissism
- A naive-ness to most forms of common sense and political correctness
- A lacking in maturity when not given what they want, which tends to be worsened by consumption of alcoholic beverages
"I heard she has Falcon Syndrome, but it doesn't seem like she knows!"
"I don't think she'll ever find out, the poor girl."

"Yo, dog, I hate to break it to you, but I think your girlfriend has Falcons."
"You're totally right, she won't get off Twitter. This is not good."

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.
