coined the term 

When someone makes up a new word or expression to describe something, and that word or expression is just so sublime and succinct that it is quickly adopted by the mainstream or the sub-mainstream, necessitating its inclusion in the Urban Dictionary.
Beyonce 'coined the term' bootylicious to perfectly describe a rounded butt (or Big Black Ghetto Arse, depending on how you look at it). Well done Beyonce. Sorry I can't do the little dash above the 'e' in your name but Robert's explanations are crap.

The Weaponization of the term 'Anti-Semitism' 

Oh, what!? They're just weaponizing the term!? They're just using it completely arbitrarily to demonize their political opposition!? Wow! Boy-oh-jeez I wonder where they got THAT EXACTLY IDEA from... 🤔 HMMMMMMM.... It's a head-scratcher... God, well... I just- I just don't know! Who could they POSSIBLY have gotten THAT from.... Hmmmm...
Hym "Oh no! Wahappan? Wahappan guys? You see, it's usually the right-wingers who are the Anti-Semitisms. But now they're calling US that! What... What's going on!? I don't understand! Literally ALL I care about in life is 1. Not being a racism and or making sure other people aren't even racism-adjacent and 2. Taking money from people who have more money than me and giving it to the poor for my Robinhood fantasy! That's literally just politics is Robinhood fantasy versus The Punisher fantasy. But where did The Weaponization of the term 'Anti-Semitism' come from? Who gave them that idea? God, it's so weird! Just calling someone a phobe or a bigot just, you know, entirely arbitrarily... Who could have possibly given them THAT idea? Cus it's the right wing that is all the racisms... I don't know. Maybe write a book about it. Get the historical precedent or something because the shit-libs aren't the ones who get called Anti-Semitisms. You guys get all the Anti-Semitisms and my side is all the good people, right? That's how the team works. My team is the good one and YOU GUYS are the Anti-Semitisms. You don't call me the Anti-Semitisms cus that's not how this works."

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.
