Whoa Nelly
The word "whoa" is the word that American use to halt their horses, literally. When horseback riding or with a wagon, you pull on the reins and then say "whoa". "Nelly" was an old standard mare's name - not really a name because Farmer's didn't often name their work tools, the horse being a work tool, was simply, universally, called Nelly. When you wanted to stop a (female) horse, you'd say, of course, "Whoa Nelly".
In modern English it's used to refer to anything (i.e. a car, a bike, a situation) or a person, who has become out of control and gone on ahead and done something unexpected - and then it's said after the fact to express shock, awe, or merely surprise, at the unexpected behavior.

Whoa Nelly
A sexual act involving two participants. In this act, the man* is having sex with his partner from behind (i.e. doggy style) while he/she is on all fours. During the final stages prior to ejaculation, the man will commence to wrap his partner's or his own underwear** around his partner's head while grabbing both ends in one hand, rise to a crouched position, and begin jack hammering while forcefully pulling back like a cowboy riding a galloping horse. Just prior to climax, he will yell "whoa nelly", while pulling back one last time.
Variant: At the end, if having vaginal sex, perform a surprise anal insertion.
*Man is a general neutral term to describe the dominant partner in this scenario, it can be a heterosexual or homosexual man, a strap wielding lesbian, or a dominatrix pegging her bitch-boy.
**In a punishment/hate-fuck scenario, heavily soiled underwear are recommended.

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.

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.
