Surprise Mechanics
What EA(electronic arts) uses to describe lootboxes to try and avoid government involvement from their games.
Along with this, they have likened their fanbase's consumption of lootboxes in games such as FIFAto the consumption of a Kinder suprise egg, which unlike lootboxes doesn't come packaged in an already 60 dollar video game and has some sick ass toys in it and doesnt have less than one percent drop rates for highly wanted items
The GIF you can see below is a representation of EA's higher ups profiting off children who spend all of their parents' money on "Surprise Mechanics" in the hopes of getting their favorite soccer player in FIFA

Hipster: Have you lived among Alaskans as one of them and dined upon bear meat?
Hippet: No!
Hipster: That surprises me...
Hippet: No!
Hipster: That surprises me...

surprise mechanics
A term used to describe members of the games industry that use patches for their games to reduce the value of those games in order to sell a solution to the problem they create.
This can be done by introducing new or additional loot boxes and/or microtransactions to games that already have an up-front price tag, or by downgrading a product by stripping features out of it after the initial sale so that they can be reintroduced at a later date for either a monetary value or a PR boost some time after the initial backlash has died down.

Sam: "My 17-year-old game now requires an inferior launcher to run and I can't play any of my favorite game modes offline, all because the company that made it is trying to force everyone to buy Warcraft 3 Reforged! Even some of the graphics options, like character shadows, aren't available to me any more!"
James: "Activision/Blizzard's surprise mechanics at work."
Sam: "I used to really enjoy Trials Rising, but now that loot boxes are a thing, the rest of the game just doesn't seem fun any more. I'm constantly feeling like I need to spend money just so my character looks half as good as the others and there's no guarantee that I'll get the thing I actually want in order to do that."
James: "Looks like Ubisoft's surprise mechanics really hurt this game, huh?"
Sam: "Is that your word for loot boxes?"
James: "No. It's the staff at Ubisoft that introduced them."
Sam: "I'm so sick of EA and 2K sticking loot boxes into their yearly releases of FIFA and NBA! The rest of the game isn't even that good any more, like it's about as meaningful as the brand on the top of a slot machine at Las Vegas!"
James: "You're not wrong. There are probably more surprise mechanics working on these games than actual game developers now."

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.
