Nintenditis
Also known as Gamer's Thumb or Nintendo Thumb, Nintenditis is when some part of your thumb or wrist becomes irritated or swollen due to excessive video game playing. A person with Nintenditis will feel pain or discomfort when bending their thumbs or moving their wrists. Note that this can happen with any finger, and not just the thumb.
I concluded that I had Nintenditis when I noticed a constant pain in my thumb during a game of Super Smash Bros.

dead drop
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.

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.
