Tatting
Tatting is the act of reproducing/mirroring and capturing on video, Tattoo's famous line from the opening credits of the 1977+ ABC television show Fantasy Island, where Tattoo boldly announces atop of a bell tower, "De dlane, De plane!". In order for a tatting to be correct, "De Plane" must be said twice and the Tatter must be pointing skyward.
There are two forms of Tatting that are reserved for advanced tatters only:
1) If you are actually pointing to a real plane
2) If a bell sound is captured immediately prior to the tatting.

I just posted the best tatting to my Facepage. I was Tatting on a Gay Pride Parade float AND there was a 727 in the sky. I rock!

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.
