Mob rule 

People sometimes use mob rule to get things done they wouldn't otherwise get done (to try and get a title they didn't win a few years ago for example). They would rather try and take a title with mob rule than acknowledge they got beat by a team from a town out in the middle of nowhere.
The point of having more than 2 teams in every sport is for any team from any town that has one (no matter how small the market) has a chance to get to the big game and get a title, just like the rest of the teams. Mob rule fucks it up by favoring the cities with the most people and letting the rest of the country know their teams can't have any titles.

Mob Rule 

Mob Rule: a far-right phrase describing an electoral system where the president is chosen based on a majority of voters wanting them to be president.
“You want to abolish the electoral college? That would lead to mob rule, which I’m TOTALLY in favor of when it comes to electing senators, mayors, representatives, city council members, dog catchers, judges, district attorneys, PTA heads, and literally every other position. But not the presidency for some reason.”

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.

Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."
