Hoeflation 

Hoeflation is a derogatory portmanteau of "whore" and "inflation", used to refer to the unfair Pareto Distribution principle (80/20 rule) that has appeared in dating culture due to the advent of internet dating (such as Tinder). It essentially affirms that the dating market tends to be rigged in favor of women. The top 80% of women only really go after the top 20% of men (female hypergamy), whereas a few decades ago, typically women would find men on their level as opposed to men way above their level. Women only date upwards now, and by a lot. The average man nowadays needs to work several times (~5x) harder than his grandfather (finances, bodybuilding, career etc.) to attract women who are several times (~7x) in lower quality (inferior) to his grandmother (less attractive, abhorrent personality) etc. Lets do a quick inflation formula with the 5 and the 7. Real Inflation Rate = ((New Price - Old Price) / (Old Price x Quality Factor)) x 100 so we get Real Inflation Rate = ((50 - 10) / (10 x 7)) x 100 which is a 571% real inflation rate (rate of Hoeflation in this case) that men must bear the cost of. Now lets look at some more math. According to Kanye West, one good girl is worth a thousand bitches while Lil Wayne says that bitches come a dime a dozen. So one good girl is worth $8.33, so a bitch is $0.00833 (these are all in USD).
Friend 1: Dude, I make a ton of money, I'm fit, I have a decent career and house. A girl rejected me on Tinder because im only 5'11" tall. She wants a 6'0" man.

Friend 2: What the heck? Thats crazy, sounds like Hoeflation on Tinder to me. Ouch.

Hoeflation 

Hoeflation is the result of two words put together. Hoe and inflation.

It is a slang which basicly means that it is the variation in the amount of money a man would have to spend on himself and on dates in order to meet the superficial requirements which "HOES" find attractive.

Since meeting girls or women that fit the carachteristics of a "hoe" are usually shallow and superficial, to invest in yourself in order to satisfy those requirements is in true an awful way to spend your money.
Average Joe : Why can't I find a nice girl to share a life together, to be my wife, to have a family and to raise kids? I’m getting tired of this dating life.

Wiseman : I see you all fit and groomed, dating girls from dating apps and in the end you are always complaining about anxiety and loneliness. Using your vocabulary I would say that HOEFLATION is too high nowadays. Women tend be much more selective than men on dates and nowadays with the help of dating apps, the options for women are virtually endless. So, in order to stand out between so many options, men are spending much more money in looks and material things in order to get the hoes attention.

Average Joe : So, what should I do?

Wiseman : Uninstall any dating apps completely, invest in knowledge and in your health. Be aware of life around you. Knowledge raises perception. Be interesting. The price of HOES may be very high nowadays but real women are PRICELESS and also YOU.

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.
