gingersnap 

A particularly dangerous type of tantrum performed by a ginger or a daywalker. Gingersnaps occur when a non-ginger ask a question about the satanic powers that all gingers possess. These questions would seem innocent to a normal person, but are like kryptonite to the soulless gingers. A single question will not always provoke a gingersnap. Sometimes a gingersnap will occur only after a dozen or so question over seven to ten days. The longer it takes for the gingersnap to occur, the more violent the gingersnap. Alcohol will increase the chances of a gingersnap. It’s best not to let a ginger drink more than one alcoholic beverage per day, preferably a cranberry juice and vodka or a Miller Lite in a vortex bottle. If you find yourself in a situation where a gingersnap is imminent there are only two things that can save you, prayer and direct sunlight. It is a fact that all gingers are governed by the same rules that control the zombies in “I Am Legend.” The threat of skin cancer and the creation of additional freckles is so great, that no ginger will intentionally enter direct sunlight. This is why so many gingers work 3rd shift. If direct sunlight is not available then you are most likely be murdered. Most gingersnaps end with 3-10 innocent people stabbed to death.

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.
