"Helrode" is the original name of a village belonging to the town Eschweiler in Germany/Rheinland. The village today is "Hehlrath" (Look at wikipedia!). It was founded by Gerardus de Helrode, a "Ritter" and "Schöffe" in Aachen, who lives at his Castle in Helrode, which perhaps was the Haus Cambach, today the Bauernhof Kugel at the Oberstraße or the Bauernhof Schleip near by the church.
The name of Hehlrath in the dialect today is a shortform of Helrode: Hähle.

(Noun) - The Greek God of being wrong. Actually the Latin and Greek spelling of the name Herod a common name before Herod the Great, Herodes Magnamus, tried to kill baby Jesus. He kinda screwed up the future of that name.
"I prayed to the Greek god Herodes yesterday and nothing happened because he doesn't f***ing exist."

"My dad told me I wasn't going to amount to anything in life, so I prayed to Herodes to make him be wrong it didn't work."

"Remember when Herodes tried to kill Jesus?" "Yeah, that was a dick move."

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.

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.
