Resistentialism
Resistentialism is a humorous theory to describe "seemingly spiteful behavior manifested by inanimate objects." In other words, a war is being fought between humans and inanimate objects, and all the little annoyances objects give people throughout the day are battles between the two.
The term was coined by humorist Paul Jennings in a piece titled "Report on Resistentialism", published in The Spectator in 1948 and reprinted in The New York Times.
The slogan of Resistentialism is "Les choses sont contre nous" -- "Things are against us"

Cases of Resistentialism:
Missing car keys: they have moved of their own accord and by means quite unobservable in order to spite you... Resistentialism!
When a bouncy ball escapes down the road: it may seem innocent but the ball knows all too well that the centre of the spectacle is that poor chap grasping helplessly in its wake... Resistentialism!
Be on the watch my fellow humans!

Reisterstown
A place that is only known about by the people that either
A)live there
B)live near there
Otherwise, no one knows about it. Trust me, I know by experience.
The Cow is the hottest place in Reisterstown. If you are visiting and dont know where anything is, ask for it in relations to The Cow and you'll find everything. It is basically the center of life in Reisterstown. Everyone goes there to hang out. That could also be because there is nothing else to do.
When you talk about Franklin, you usually mean the High School or Middle School. Almost everyone you know goes there. If everyone you know dont go there, you know at least one or two people who do.
Everyone in the Reisterstown/Glyndon area go to The Pool. By The Pool, I mean Glyndon Pool. Everyone goes there over the summer. It's a good place to see old friends and people you dont want to see. You can start a bf/gf relationship there within the first weeks of summer and then watch it fall apart by the end. Near the end of May, all the 8th graders from SHS(Sacred Heart School for you non-Reisterstowners) will be relaxing there until the rest of the school gets out. If you see people jumping into the pool with all their clothes on, its those SHS people.
Santoni's really means something. In the summer, people walk there from The Pool. They go even tho its one million degrees just to get snapple or a muffin. One tradition many have is the classic Mentos and Diet Coke. Everyone who goes to Santoni's in the summer spends all their money on Mentos and Diet Coke.
When people talk about The High School, they clearly mean Owings Mills High. Thats where the drug addicts and gangs go. It's not as big of a deal as Franklin but its close. There is a neighborhood across the street but no one who lives there goes to The High School.

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.

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.

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.
