Hover-grating 

A careless method of grating cheese by holding the block of cheese and grater high above the food, causing it to disperse everywhere but the intended dish.

Characterised by fragments of grated cheese found everywhere around the kitchen afterwards - often accompanied by a larger, dry block of remnant cheese left out for many days after said cheese-grating incident.

Particularly common in Rootes P 2nd kitchen, and generally anywhere inhabited by a German-Italian partnership.
Dude 1: "Awww wtf Jasper, there's cheese everywhere on the table again!"
Jasper: "Sorry dude, Francesco and I made pesto pasta last night and we were hover-grating the cheese over it."
Dude 1: "Aw not again dammit."
Pit: "In Luxembourg..."

Hover-grating is the only way to truly enjoy a German-Italian dish.

Greeting Radius 

The distance of your radius that you will acknowledge the people you know and greet them. Greeting radii almost always depend on person. Usually, your greeting radius varies based on how much you like the person. Someone you are close friends with, will probably have a greeting radius of over 50ft. For people you don't like, it would probably be something like 10ft if it's crowded where you are.
Steve: Oh dude, I had to say hi to Kent today?
Jon: Aww, you said hi to Kunt? He probably thinks you like him now.
Steve: I know, but I kinda used to know him, plus, he got in my greeting radius
Jon: Shit, sucks for you, haha
Steve: Yeah, GOD today was a bad day

pod person 

A person pretending to be something they aren't, or an impostor. This is inferred because of the old alien movies where alien pods appear on earth and the "pod people" dispose of the humans and slowly reproduce the bodies, pretending to be humans.
The pod person was pretending to be my father, but I knew that he was an alien when he acted differently than my father ever would have.

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.

Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."
