The Monkees
A retired rock group best known for songs such as "I'm a Believer," "Last Train to Clarksville," "Daydream Believer (Cheer Up, Sleepy Jean)," and "A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You." While they disbanded and reformed several times since their inception in the 1960's, they ultimately remained active for well over fifty years before embarking on a farewell tour that concluded in November 2021.
The Monkees were composed of four musicians. Three were American, and one was British. They are as follows:
-George Michael Dolenz, Jr. (Micky Dolenz; Born March 8, 1945)
-Robert Michael Nesmith (Michael Nesmith; December 30, 1942 - December 10, 2021)
-David Thomas Jones (Davy Jones; December 30, 1945 - February 29, 2012. Yes, he died on leap day.)

skipping the monkeys
"Skipping the monkeys" is a metaphor for skipping past the boring stuff to get to the good stuff. 2001: A Space Odyssey, the film begins with an instrumental overture that lasts about 5 minutes and then there’s 15 minutes of, for lack of a better word, monkeys. I love 2001: A Space Odyssey and would never approve of fast forwarding through any part of the movie unless you’ve seen the movie many times and don’t necessarily want to sit through a slow part to get to the good stuff. -Scott Moschella
Let’s say you’re going to a concert. Who wants to sit through two lackluster opening acts to get to the headliner? I say, “Skip those monkeys!” Restless at work? Skip the monkeys and take an early lunch. Who cares how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll Pop? Skip the monkeys and bite into that sucker. -Scott Moschella

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.

EBK
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).

Blexas
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.
