Ryerson
Ryerson by Rasviga September 19, 2018
A university with a highly diverse range of educative paths and professionals, as well as students. Ryerson university emphasizes on using both real-life experience and theory in their educative fields. Employees tend to hire Ryerson graduates rather than U of T graduates due to the social and work related competence Ryerson graduates present, compared to socially inept book-worms.
employer: "He's from Ryerson, at least he can do work and is not a dull dead-rabbit like that U of T kid we hired and fired"

ryerson engineering 

The faculty with the most innovative, faced-paced, and challenging degree programs at Ryerson University.

Contrary to popular stereotypes that Ryerson is a "high school", the Engineering degree very much entails a curriculum obviously only found in higher education institutions.

Engineering students can usually be found drowning in work, unable to attend parties, whining about their GPA, and not engaged in romantic relationships with other students.
Person 1: He goes to Ryerson University.
Person 2: Lol I bet he's a dumbass
Person 1: Actually no, he's in Ryerson Engineering. I got mad respect for him.

Non-eng student: Hey girls! There's a party tonight. Wanna come?
Girls: Sorry, we're engineering students.
Non-eng student: ...Oh okay, maybe some other time I guess ;)
Girls: Probably not.

ryerson university 

A college that still thinks its a university, much like western being a 4 star vacation resort. Engineering is good at ryerson, but overall is a very mediocre school, especially the business program.

Ryerson University 

A university in the heart of downtown Toronto. And contrary to popular belief, Ryerson *IS* a university, albeit a very non-traditional one at that which makes this institution unique.

Ryerson is aptly located amidst the hustle-and-bustle of the city, which has often labeled Ryerson University as having "street cred." This is a school where, on comparison with other insitutions in the area, the students are not snobby, not obnoxious, and just generally really open-minded.

Ryerson is well known for its Business, Image Arts, and Media (Journalism, Radio, etc) programs. Ryerson also hires some of the coolest professors to lecture the courses (the Pop Culture prof looks and acts like Jack Black, seriously!) Ryersonians are collectively known as the Ryerson Rams, who happen to kick quite a lot of arse. Ryerson is also particularly well-known for boasting a fine-looking student body. ;)

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.
