Stuck-on-the-ceiling parenting

Trying hard to fit in with your kids, but failing miserably. Derived from Rocket League when parents play the game with their kids, but can't get their car off the ceiling as heard on What's That Word Podcast.

dick caught in the ceiling fan 

A Youtube meme that began on May 1, 2012 when someone made a rather humorous comment on a fake instructional video on how to touch a wall with an apple, saying "The instructions weren't clear enough. I got my dick caught in the ceiling fan." Since then, the comment has gotten 15000+ thumbs up and has been copied ever since by various people posting comments on how-to videos even though it has nothing to do with the videos' content. This meme has grown to be almost as popular as the well-known Arrow in the knee meme.

spider on the ceiling 

The Jedi mind trick of dutch ovens. The act of blowing vile ass vapors under the covers and then tricking your bed partner into pulling the covers over their own head by telling them that there is a spider on the ceiling. Far worse than a dutch oven because they did it to themselves.
Stephen released a vile, gassy emission under the covers and then told Mary (names changed to protect the innocent) that there was a spider on the ceiling. Mary immediately pulled the covers over her head to hide from the non-existent spider, effectively giving herself a dutch oven. Stephen giggled to himself as Mary puked repeatedly.

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.
