An over the top greeting from a gay person in Hawaii; a take on the Hawaiian word for “thank you”. combines the words “mahala” and “holla” (holler).

Even though most people (including those of us who happen to be gay) know that “Malala” is NOT a greeting (i.e. “hello”), it’s fun to say when greeting someone in Hawaii - so, we just say it anyway. “Aloha” Is just so 70s Marsha Brady!
Jack and Sebastian had just arrived at their hotel in Honolulu when Jack spotted his high school English teacher.
“MaHOLLA Ms. Ostlund!”
Ms. Ostlund’s life partner looked at her and said, “Tell me that’s NOT one of your brightest students!”

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."
