remedial trash bag 

Term used to describe black men who are either delusional, arrogant, lazy, unemployed and/or repeat prison offenders (or all of the above). They are the men who make communities unsafe for black women and children. They expect people to march and protest whenever a black man is shot by a white cop but say absolutely nothing about the black on black homicide rates in urban cities. They degrade black women to justify dating white women. They believe dating white women will make them closer in status to white men. They believe they are the most desirable men just because some white women give them the time of day. Black women are used as a scapegoat for the reason these men abandon their women and children. They compare themselves to black women and like to talk about their weaves. They are comfortable being losers and are completely useless in the black community. They expect black women to protect the entire black community and go 50/50 in a relationship. They love to reference 'The Moynihan Report' without having read the study because if they did read it they would no longer use it to support reasons for their personal failure. They claim to be oppressed and victims of white supremacy but fail to provide proof of any law that prohibits them from doing anything in this country that a white person can do.
Remedial trash bag: "White girls think that getting attention from black guys is a badge of honor."
White girlfriend: "We don't think getting attention from black guys gives you a status of some sort. If you get attention from the white guys you do have the status more than if you get attention from black guys."
Remedial trash bag: "As a man, I'm going to have to respectfully disagree." (chuckles)
White girlfriend: "Well, as a woman who gets attention and who grew up in a white culture more than a black culture, I'm going to tell you that getting attention from black guys is not a badge of honor it you're white."

Remedial Child

A student who needs special help to improve in a particular subject.

This is used to emphasize a point has been repeated multiple times and the "student" hasn't been able to resolve their deficiencies.

Typically, it's for internet know-it-alls who can't read beyond their cherry picking delusions.
I have already said that, three other times, try not to be such a remedial child.

tha Remedy 

rapper/songwriter/engineer from New Jersey who will "set right" the music industry. Symbolism is surrounding "tha Remedy" starting off with a lower case "t" symbolizing a cross since he is a believer in Jesus Christ. followed by an "a", purposefully misspelled to identify the "imperfections" of this hiphop artist. Next we have the full word Remedy used to show hope, faith, confidence, reliance on his savior, and of course a written "prescription" to music. Since he is still human and imperfect, you will also hear times of sorrow, frustration, and impatience. one things for certain, he is tha Remedy to himself, his fans, supporters, and targeted towards anyone who appreciates good music.

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.
