Terminal Friendship 

The act of suddenly caring about someone or having a sudden desperate need to be a positive part of someone’s last bit of life when they suddenly become stricken with a terminal illness, knowing full well that before becoming sick that there really was no meaningful friendship in the years leading up to the terminal diagnosis.

This can be applied to anyone you may have been close with in the past, like a family member or former friend that you’ve rarely seen or communicated with in the last many years due a falling out or because they were a well known asshole that you have supported financially.

The existence of this type of friendship is purely self-motivating for the person seeking a closer relationship with the terminally ill. Money and other assets typically surround the motivation. Guilt can also be another reason to seek this friendship, but still self-motivating nontheless.

Unfortunately, this term most often can be applied to 40yr old bitch daughters with shitty credit that have been punching meal tickets off of their parents, squatting rent free in their rental properties, driving their cars, seeking a never ending bailout, and spent the last 39 yrs of their meaningless lives being a terror to everyone in their immediate family construct; only to have a sudden change of heart now that the person who has been sustaining them financially is at their weakest point.
1.) Hey sis, if you aren’t here for just a terminal friendship, then why did you put our involet, bed ridden mother, into a wheel chair, take her downtown and transfer her car title into your name without telling anyone?

2.) We havent seen Aunty around for the last 20-30 yrs, and mom always talked about how she never had a really tight relationship with her, but now they’re enjoying a terminal relationship so Aunty doesn’t have to live with guilt when mom is gone.

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."
