Subwoofer Crawl 

A technique used to find the perfect spot in your room for full-sounding bass.
This technique is created by Gene DellaSala, president and Founder/Owner of Audioholics (an online A/V magazine)

The technique involves placing the subwoofer in the spot where you usually sit when watching movies or listening to music, and turning on a fairly bass-heavy test track. Then, crawling around on the floor while listening to where the bass sounds the best. Switching spots with your subwoofer—it should sound about the same.
Mark: I got my new sound system, but am confused where to place the subwoofer for the best sound.
Sami: Easy, do the subwoofer crawl and you will find out.

subwoofer 

1. The best thing ever invented.

2. A speaker that varies in size usually from 8" to 32". The most popular size is 12". They are made to put out the low end of the audio spectrum. They make the low end a.k.a. bass more noticeable and louder and smoother. Playing them loudly is also known as subwoofing, and if your not careful about where you do it, it will make other people mad. Subwoofer's are a great way to attract someone's attention, but just keep in mind thats not always a good thing.
I had my subwoofers working hard to get this girls attention, but at the same time I attracted someone else's attention and it was only a few seconds before I saw the blueberry's and cherry's in my rear view mirrior.

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.

Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.
