Green Dot 

Originating from the game Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 it was used to describe a teammate whom you do not know. These team mates will show up on the radar map as green arrows or “Green Dots”. Often used during times of anger or frustration when a fellow team mate is doing something that offends you, “Green Dot” could be shouted over a microphone to encompass any one of the people on your team in hopes that the one committing the offensive action would hear you and stop what they were doing.

Green Dot can also be used in real life to describe others around you that you do not know or are not acquainted with. This includes people at the park, at school or a party.
Example 1
Player 1: *Stealing Care Package*
Player 2: "MOVE GREEN DOT THAT'S MINE!!"

Example 2
Player 1: "Fuckin green dot!! get out of the way!"

Example 3
Student 1: "WOW, this class is crowded!!"
Student 2: "Yup, I don't like green dots breathing my air!"

Air Force Green Dot 

A politically correct program that was developed and currently being used in the U.S. Air Force. This program is to raise awareness of sexual assault and how intercede in a bad situation.

But in reality, this program is to encourage all Airmen to dispel any jokes and activities which raises morale. Airmen or NCOs who volunteered to be an instructor for this program usually are the very sensitive politically correct whiny bitches who needs a promotion bullet so they can get the Promote Now or Must Promote in their EPR. They never had any kind of fun because they're the Negative Nancys within their Squadron/Fligt. They call the cool people who loves to have fun and crack jokes within each other "Red Dots". However they can seem nice but they’re likely going to back stab their peers or airmen just to make rank.
Red Dot Airman: Bacon can cure Islamic Fighters from being a suicide bomber.

Green Dot NCO: That's very offensive and it hurts my feelings. You're being a Red Dot. You need to go to Air Force Green Dot training so you can learn some manners.

Red Dot Airman: I see you need to lighten up Francis but whatever it takes to get the promotion.

Green Dot NCO: I will now schedule a Mass Air Force Green Dot Training after duty hours since you’re all being
problematic.

Red Dot Airman: This is why Morale in the Air Force isn’t Pretty Darn Good. You’re Toxic Leadership.

Management By Green Dot 

When someone manages a work-from-home employee by checking that their status in a chat application like Slack, Microsoft Teams, etc., hasn't shifted from a green dot signifying "Present/Available" to an orange, yellow, or red dot signifying "Away", rather than by measuring things like quality and quantity of work output, whether deliverables are met in a timely fashion, customer satisfaction, etc.

With the explosion in employees working from home during the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020+, many managers who had been accustomed to prowling cube farms and looking over their employees' shoulders to make sure they were working, resorted to this technique.
"My manager totally does management by green dot. I got yelled at for being 'Away' on Slack yesterday morning because I had to spend half an hour on the phone with my kid's school. I'm going to have to get one of those mouse jigglers."

Green Dotting 

When someone stalks another persons online status waiting for the green dot to appear and then forces interaction much to the dismay of the other person.
Nathan: I saw her green dot and IM’d her again. It was 2 am but she was clearly up.
Joyce: stop green dotting people when they wake up to pee, freak!

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.
