Modern Fantasy. Also known as Urban Fantasy, Contemporary Fantasy, or Dark Fantasy. A stylized subgenre of fiction most commonly written in first person. ModFan is a steadily growing genre that perfectly melds the aspects of fantasy books, such as magic or monsters, with the modern world's cities and technology. A large number of these books have characters wielding both magic and guns. Most ModFan novels fall into two categories. 1:The magical world goes unnoticed by most humans. 2:The magic world is common knowledge (stories taking place in an alternate reality in which the cities and most other aspects of our reality are unchanged.) Examples of ModFan include books by the fallowing Authors; Ilona Andrews, Jim Butcher, Karen Chance, Kim Harrison, Patricia Briggs, Simon Green, and Rob Thurman.

mofanity 

Mormon profanity, commonly used by people from Utah and the surrounding intermountain west who are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, which strongly discourages the use of profanity.
Common mofanity terms include:
"dang" instead of "damn", as in, "Where did I put my dang car keys?"
"fetch" instead of "fuck", as in, "Oh, fetch! The dang keys are locked in the car!"
"fricken'" instead of "fucking", as in, "Who the fetch locked the dang keys in the fricken car?"
"heck" instead of "Hell", as in, "Oh my heck, honey! You locked the keys in the car "again"?" (The expression "Oh, my heck" is apparently derived from "Oh, my Hell," which is apparently derived from "Oh, my heavens," which apparently is not at all an okay thing to say.)
"shoot" instead of "shit", as in, "Oh, shoot! I just slammed my fingers in the car door and it hurts like heck!"

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.
