Shit in Your Showroom
To really mess up someone's day. This might happen if, hypothetically, an elderly gentleman was unable to control his bowel movements while in a car dealership and had some poo drop out of his pants leg and onto the showroom floor. One would expect the resulting hypothetical poo to nauseate employees, run off customers and terrify small children.

skowronskism
Something one does to assert his dominance in a way that makes the surrounding individuals know that he is the alpha male. This may include: informing other people that things are "Pussy shit", spraying your genitals with cologne, invading someone's personal space, raising one's voice to top everyone else, emphasizing the word "LITERALLY!", not tipping pizza delivery guys (unless they are hot chicks) and informing other people that you are alpha.
Joe "Hey Bob, want to play basketball tonight?"
David "HEY GUYS THAT IS LITERALLY PUSSY SHIT"
Bob "No it is not stop trying to be alpha"
David "WHATEVER, I AM GOING TO THE GYM AFTER I DON'T TIP, EAT A PIZZA, AND SPRAY MY DICK WITH COLOGNE"
Bob (aside) "Wow what a bunch of skowronskisms!"

Don't leave horsepower in the showroom
A metaphorical rule to live by: don't make the mistake of choosing the cheaper option to save a buck in the short run, when you'll curse yourself later for not getting the better-grade product/service in the long run.
Eric: "What was I thinking buying that Porsche with the V-4 instead of the V-6 -- it handled like a Formula 1 car but is a total slug in a straight line!"
Tim: "Dude, you broke rule number 1 -- don't leave horsepower in the showroom."
And so --
Maddie: "This well Margarita sucks -- why didn't I get the Cadillac for two bucks more?"
Amy: "Exactly. Don't leave horsepower in the showroom, sweetie."

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.
