McGladrey 

A mid-tier accounting firm that is akin to the dating term "sloppy seconds." Almost all employees who start here were rejected from Big Four accounting firms because they have the personality and IQ of door knobs. This firm saves resources on strategic planning by copying some of the progams of larger accounting firms, only a year later.

Employees of McGladrey are easy to spot. During the months of January through March, in preparation for hibernation, McGladrey employees typically gain between 5 and 65 pounds. However, this phenomenon is limited to the tax professionals, which have lavish catered meals in the office for three months straigt while the audit professionals starve at client offices with no meal reimbursements allowed.

McGladrey is also a microcasm for the problems of American society. The wealth gap is clearly seen in McGladrey, with partners (who sold their equity in the firm to H&R Block in the late 90s) driving Mercedes and staffers riding their new Dyno freestyle BMX's in January. In addition, McGladrey partners have new Toshiba microlaptops, with staffers performing audit work on suitcase laptops that were rejected from the local museums.
Mike wished he was paid the market salary, but he works at McGladrey. So he'll have to wait until next year for a decent raise.

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."

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.
