A progger is a programmer who usually has some experience under their belt. It's unusual for a web designer to be labeled a programmer, but anyone who scripts can be labeled as a progger. Even if one simply edits their MySpace CSS* code by hand, they can be labeled a progger (but more commonly, script kiddies).

This term is sometimes typed as "progg'er" or "prog'ger."

* CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets and is used to determine the layout (visuals) of a website, such as the font type, background images, and presentation of the site (such as where a paragraph is displayed on the page).
I just made all the font italics! I am quite the 1337 progger, yes?

A progger is a person who loves progressive rock, a music style which is pretentious as fuck in which solos go on for like two weeks until it makes you want to get hit by a bus so you can stop listening to the guitarist's solo which in reality is not a solo but his enormous ego speaking through the guitar.
Guy 1: Dude, let's go listen to some Emerson, Lake and Palmer!
Guy 2: What are you, a progger? Fuck you man! I'd rather eat a sandwich with nails and shit in it!

chess progger 

Usually a young individual from the ages of 12 to 24 that
uses a hacked chess UCI to cheat at online chess, thus giving
them a highly inflated ELO rating, while skewing legitimate
players ratings. Their internet ELO rating is usually well
over the master level of 2200, even though their real world,
Over The Board (OTB) rating is typically below 1400.
By cheating unknown individuals over the internet anonymously, proggers give themselves a false sense of accomplishment and gratification. They are selfish losers who only care about winning at any and all costs.
Damn it! That little fucking chess progger checkmated me again in under 30 moves and in only two minutes, twenty seconds (five minute clocks).

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.
