Skater Poser 

Note: A Skater Poser is NOT someone who sucks at skateboarding and/or is just beginning.

A Skater Poser is someone who claims they skate, but doesn't really. Reasons for someone being a Skater Poser include popularity and getting girls. They are usually seen carrying their boards around (some don't even own a skateboard), saying they can do tricks, and sitting around at the local park, insulting actual skaters.

Skater Poser: Dude, you suck! I did that first try yesterday!

Real Skater: Let's see it, then.

Skater Poser: A cop took my board away.

Real Skater: Here, use mine.

Skater Poser: Uh, I have to, uh, check my, uh, house. I think, uh, I left my, uh, front door open.

*Skater Poser runs away*

poser skater 

a poser skater is someone who pretands to be a skater. they are usually people that go to skateparks all the time but just sit on the benches with their board trying to look cool. they usually dress and act like the stereotype but when it comes to actually getting on the board they have no clue what they are doing. you can usually tell if someones a poser skater if they say they can do a boardslide and they bottom of their deck isnt even scratched. it actually doesnt matter if you suck or if you just started but when you say you can do things that you have never tried before because they look "easy" then your a poser. it also doesnt really matter if you wear skate brand tees if you actually like the style just dont wear them if you think it makes you look cool.
skater: dude, you are such a f*cken poser skater
poser: omg no im not!!!!!111 ive lyk sk8ed lyk all my life, i kno lyk all the kewl tricks and stuff dude!!!11
skater: oh yeah do you know the difference between a frontside 50-50 and a backside 50-50?
poser: pssh lyk totally
skater: then do a frontside 50-50
poser: lyk okaaay!!!11

(poser goes over to a legde, but since they dont know how to even do an ollie, they jump of the board onto the legde and since they are too "Kewl" to use a helmet, they bash their head into the cement and get knocked unconcious)

skater: thats what you get you f*ucken poser

poser skater 

According to many people, someone who skates just to be cool, or someone who says he can skate, but he really can't. These people are heavily bashed by the "real skaters" (their opposites). Quite frankly, as a skater, I just enjoy the sport for what it is. I don't see how a piece of wood with wheels underneath can destroy or boost someone's reputation; it's just an object! I think everyone has the right to skate (even those that some call posers) because we should all just have fun. I'm not supporting "fake skaters" or their motives, but I'm just defending the rule that we should just do it for fun and forget the other stuff. Hell, this "poser" subject has such a big impact in the skater community in general, some skaters just try too hard to be original. once again, we should all just enjoy it.
Hardcore skater dude: look at that dude. he just skates around to look cool! what a faggot!
Me: Alright, man. We're not in control of him. Let him do what makes him happy.
Hardcore skater dude: come on bro! look at him! look at the Nike 6.0s and kr3w shirt he's wearing! what a fucking poser skater!
Me: Whatever, man. Just leave this alone. Let's go skate. Forget about your thing with the posers man. Just skate!

Poser Skater 

A person who thinks they can skateboard.
Usually has a penny board because that's Mainstream and Hipster right now.
Usually see them just carrying their board around.
They also have no Scratches on their board because they cant do shit and just show off their £150 army print 'New' Board... from www.pennyskateboardsonline.com.

Usually wear Beanies in the summer and Tie dyed tank tops with 'Hype' on them, or the really mainstream Thrasher T-Shirts in white with black writing.
Some of them also have Facebook profile pictures of them doing an Ollie off a curb, but you can only see the skateboard and their feet so you dont know who the fuck has done it.
Friend - "look at him, another skater"
Me - "Hipster Poser Skater..."
Friend - "How d'you know? He could be really good"
Me - "He is wearing a trasher hoodie, Janoski's and a Hype beanie in the summer "
Friend - "Faggot"

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.

EBK stands for "Elite Ball Knowledge." 1 In internet slang, "ball knowledge" originally referred to a deep understanding of football/soccer or basketball, but it has evolved into a broader term for having a highly sophisticated, deep, or niche understanding of any specific topic (such as music, movies, or subcultures).
Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."
