reaction video 

Literally the stupidest thing to grace the Internet. Some attention starved asshole gets the bright idea to record his/her ugly face watching a YouTube vid or, god forbid, a 20-40 minute episode of something and expects us to sit there and watch them make facial expressions or some shit. It's literally watching a video of someone watching a video! Their face takes up 80% of the screen and the thing they're watching is usually miniature and in the corner. It's a pathetic fad that needs to die very very quickly. Newsflash people: NO ONE CARES WHAT FACIAL EXPRESSIONS YOU MAKE OR WHAT STUPID SOUNDS COME OUT OF YOUR MOUTH WHEN YOU WATCH SOMETHING!
Guy 1: Hey bro, have you seen this live reaction video of the new RWBY episode?
Guy 2: Uh, no, I'd rather watch the actual episode, not some guy's ugly face.

Reaction Videos

The most pointless and dumbest type of content on the internet with exaggerated thumbnails just for views, when someone’s watching a 20-50 minute episode of a show or a 1-2 hour movie as if anyone’s gonna watch the whole thing. The creator’s ugly ass face takes up 80% of the screen and the show they’re watching is a tiny video usually in the bottom right corner, and they always pause the video every 2 seconds which obviously gets super annoying. There’s a high chance that the person watching the video wouldn’t give two fucks about what’s happening and just makes exaggerated facial expressions for more attention.
Person1: hey, dude! Have you seen that new reaction video of BFDI?

Person2: hell no, reaction videos are so pointless! I’d rather watch BFDI by myself without some random person with their ugly face taking up the whole screen!

Person1: okay.. jeez.

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.

EBK stands for "Elite Ball Knowledge." 1 In internet slang, "ball knowledge" originally referred to a deep understanding of football/soccer or basketball, but it has evolved into a broader term for having a highly sophisticated, deep, or niche understanding of any specific topic (such as music, movies, or subcultures).
Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."
