rebdomine 

Eric Harris (one of the Columbine killers)' AOL screen name.

This was one of several screen names, all of which seemed to derive from the word 'reb', short for 'rebel', the mascot of Columbine High School. In this case, the 'domine' is based on the Latin 'dominus' for master.
Rebdomine made some Doom wads.

recomember 

During the early '80s while I was traveling on the east coast, North Carolina to be specific, I was watching an early morning talk show. The host looking dapper in his 3 piece suit interviewing a guest said in part during the course of their conversation, " yes, I "recomember" way back when... at which point the guest interrupted him and said, "you mean you remember when..." the host restated the word and once again the guest corrected him an stated "there are two words here, remember and recollect..." At which time the host said, "look you remember and recollect all you want, I recomember!" the word has been part of my vocabulary ever since.
Yes, I recomember remember recollect recall way back as a child I couldn't always pronounce words correctly.

Recommangst 

The anxious feeling you get after recommending something to somebody. This may be because you are unsure how the recommendation will reflect on you, or because you are desperate for them to love the thing too.

Recommendation Obligation 

The obligation one has to watch a particular TV series or movie after it was recommended by a friend, colleague or family member.

The victim of Recommendation Obligation feels a sense of guilt and anxiety which is only relieved by watching the entire movie or TV series.

NOTE: Social etiquette dictates that one must suffix any recommendation with "but don't feel obliged to watch it if you're busy or if it's not your thing or whatever".
Ohhh, I'm so tired, my buddy told me to watch "Gossip Girl" so I felt Recommendation Obligation and watched every season, even though I hated it.

redcommunistchinese 

Dank, based and redpilled are the words that will spring to one’s mind upon entering this haven of the leftist stratosphere. The Instagram account Redcommunistchinese took its name originally from Fallout’s reactionary automaton Liberty Prime and in doing so subverted and formed two kinds of ironies. On the one hand it reversed a dramatic irony- Fallout’s audience understand Prime as a grotesque stereotype of a classic American uber-nationalist (think Ripper from Dr. Strangelove!) and the acceptance of Prime’s phrasing by a leftist group gives it an odd legitimacy. This gives rise to a form of meta-irony where it is uncertain whether the account is mocking the robot, agreeing with him, ironically agreeing with him, or rejecting Liberty Prime by using his phrasing in a context entirely contradictory to its original use, which would give rise to further problems, as it suggests the account is unaware of the original irony. Anyway it’s a poggers account
‘Hello Andrei, I follow Redcommunistchinese’
‘Good’

‘Hello Rublev, I don’t follow Redcommunistchinese’
‘Bad’

Frothability 

The measure of an emotional and over zealous consumer in an upwardly charging market, also known as a bull market. It's characterized by rising asset prices, increased investor confidence, and favorable growth in the markets, bro.
The frothability was evident as over-zealous consumers eagerly engaged in bidding wars, driving property prices to unsustainable levels reminiscent of previous speculative bubbles.

Soul digger

A man who dates women with the sole purpose of exploiting their time, energy, and labor while he sucks the joy and happiness from their lives.
"That guy's a soul digger. He'll expect you to work full time, but you'll be doing all the cooking, cleaning, laundry, shopping, and childcare while he plays video games or watches TV."

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.
