Tundra Wookiee 

HISTORY
The original term "Tundra Wookie" was coined by a young man from West Los Angeles by the name of Bryan N.(last name not given for privacy reasons) while visiting the far North American regions with his friends. Upon his return, the term was then passed on to his friends and family and unto me. Considering I know a ridiculous amount of people, and I am a total jerk and used the term everywhere, it's no surprise that others use it and try to take credit for it. No matter what anyone says or believes, this is the truth and any other story is utter bull****! because nobody knew what a tundra wookiee was before the mid 90's and if they claim that they did, they're lying.

WORD COMPOSITION
In physical geography, tundra is an area where the tree growth is hindered by low temperatures and short growing seasons. Arctic tundra occurs in the far Northern Hemisphere, north of the taiga belt. The word "tundra" usually refers only to the areas where the subsoil is permafrost, or permanently frozen soil (wikipedia.org)

Adult Wookiees are typically taller than most humans, averaging 2.1 meters (6'11"). They are physically strong (as suits an arboreal species), have extremely thick hair, and have high endurance (although slow moving). Wookiees are fully covered with hair, making them highly adaptable to a wide range of climates (wikipedia.org).

APPLICATION
Though a wookiee could be male, the term "tundra wookiee" was only meant to be applied to women. So that being said..

DEFINITION
The term "tundra wookie" (also known as neanderthalensis Alaskanis Robustus), is basically a witty yet oddly accurate way of describing a larger than normal (in height and weight) woman who is granola-ish in appearance(see granola)and most likely has poor hygiene.

Note: This term is solely meant to describe the outwardly appearance of these particular women, and in no way has any negative implication about their personality. Tundra wookiees could in fact be very intelligent and have great personalities!
Picture Rosie O'Donnell one day on live T.V., appearing one week unshaven and seriously granola-ish. One could appropriately say, "that Rosie sure looks like a tundra wookiee today!"

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.
