Minecraft Syndrome 

A book/movie/game/person which/who in itself is good, or at least not bad, but is ruined for many people by its fan community. Named after Minecraft, which due to the huge amount of children who play it and the paedophiles in the community, has a somewhat negative stigma surrounding it.
Person 1: 'Omg, FNAF/Undertale/PewDiePie sucks!'
Person 2: 'Well, not really, it's just a case of Minecraft Syndrome.'

Minecraft Syndrome 

Minecraft Syndrome is one of the worst diseases known to mankind. It is gained when an individual (usually 3-9 years old) first hears of a game known as ‘minecraft’ symptoms include: increasing need for fanfic, screaming for hours without end. Telling parents to get the fuck out of their rooms and also watching WillNE for a large amount of time. In rare occasions, it can sometimes lead to Ligma.
See that kid? Apparently he has Minecraft Syndrome.
Wow. We should stay away.

Minecraft Withdrawal Syndrome 

Minecraft Withdrawal Syndrome (aka MWS) occurs when a Minecraft player (see Minecrafter) dies in a cave via zombie invasion, spider attack, skeleton sniping, or even creeper terrorism and loses all of his ores/tools/weapons/armor/materials and respawns above ground, forcing him to go back into the maze of a cave system. If said Minecrafter dies a second time, then a third, before finding his items, a feeling of hopelessness comes into the mind. The Minecrafter then withdraws away from the game (something very difficult to do) for 1 hour to two months, depending on the items in the Minecrafter's inventory.
Tom: "Hey Dan, why are you looking so down? Got Minecraft Withdrawal Syndrome?"
Dan: "I just lost my diamond armor in Minecraft."
Tom: "Dude, that's harsh. How long have you been off?"
Dan: "Three years."

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.
