Trump Recovery Syndrome 

A phenomenon whereby individuals who were triggered by President Trump, go through a series of stages before finally calming down and feeling peace. This is entirely natural after 4+ years of his anxiety-provoking madness. The nervous system has to re-calibrate. Our habitual range of e-motion has to return to healthier parameters. Those stages may include deep sleep, hyper-vigilance, spontaneous joy, intermittent rage, feelings of boredom, generalized anxiety, a persistent need to check media, a hunger for intensity, pendulating between emotional armor and moments of surrender. It is very similar to one’s experience of reality after any abuser leaves their life. It takes real time to integrate the fact that they are gone, particularly in the case of a malignant-narcissist who has a perpetual need for attention. Anyone suffering from TRS will benefit from a patient approach to their recovery. Trump hit many buttons, and it will take time before your nervous system can regulate. - Jeff Brown
Hey Dude, don't be pushing on me that Q-ANON nonsense about the election being stolen. I am still traumatized and going through Trump Recovery Syndrome.

recovery mode

An excuse for just about anything, basically means "I can do it, but not now".

Ideally to be in recovery mode means that one can't perform an action because they have already done it recently and are still "recovering" from it. Thought to be derived from the term people sometimes use to describe their state after an intense workout when they are supposedly weaker from straining themselves and can justify dismissing a challenge. Because "recovery mode" allows someone to excuse themselves from doing something and make it seem like this was because they do it so much, it is often used by egotistical smartasses and cocky jocks. However it can also be used in a completely irrelevant way, often to great comedic effect.
EXAMPLE 1:
guy1: "...no way you go to the gym. Look at you, so pinner!"
guy2: "If you think you're so strong, why don't we arm wrestle right now!"
guy1: "Nah, I'm in recovery mode"
guy2: "Sure, ever since the last time when I won!"

EXAMPLE 2:
teacher: "Marco, why was your essay incomplete?"
student: "I was in recovery mode"
teacher: "oh..."

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.

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.
