alfred hitchcock 

The fact that I am the first person to write anything on Hitchcock is just criminal. Born on 8/13/1899, he was widely regarded as one of the best directors ever lived. With a reputation for making horror, suspense,and thriller movies, he's sometimes referred to as the "Master of Suspense." He is famous for using attractive blond women in his movies and making cameo appearances in his own movies. Hitchcock's most famous movies include: Notorious, Psycho, North by Northwest, Vertigo, Rear Window, Strangers on a Train, 39 Steps, Rebecca, To Catch a Thief, The Birds, The Man Who Knew Too Much, and Dial 'M' for Murder. Upon his death on 4/29/1980, Alfred Hitchcock, among other legendary directors such as Robert Altman, Stanley Kubrick, Federico Fellini, Ingmar Bergman, Akira Kurosawa, and Martin Scorsese, never received an Oscar for Best Director.
Person 1: I watch a lot of movies. I am a movie person.
Person 2: Me too! And don't you just love Alfred Hitchcock?
Person 1: I've never really watched any Hitchcock.
Person 2: And you call yourself a movie person? How dare you?!

Hitchcock Shit 

Noun: The act of timing when you push for a shit with the flushing from the neighboring toilet cubicles.

Like Hitchcock 

Much like calling a moron "Einstein", "Like Hitchcock" is used towards a film, from average to poor quality, when comparing it to a film of even worse quality. Putting the two side by side, it makes the original choice appear of a far substantial standard.
After seeing "Fake Awful Movie", it's easy to say "Fake Mediocre Movie" feels like Hitchcock.

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.

EBK stands for "Elite Ball Knowledge." 1 In internet slang, "ball knowledge" originally referred to a deep understanding of football/soccer or basketball, but it has evolved into a broader term for having a highly sophisticated, deep, or niche understanding of any specific topic (such as music, movies, or subcultures).
Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."
