The Magnus Archives 

The Magnus Archives is a podcast distributed by Rusty Quill Ltd. and licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial Sharealike 4.0 International Licence.

*sips cup of madness*
"Have you listened to The Magnus Archives?"

"Is that the podcast of a bunch of queer British people screaming?"

"Yeah that's the one"

"Of course, how could I forget the name of my latest hyper fixation of the past 2 months where I lock myself in a dark room and get absorbed into a podcast that at first seems like spooky stories, but transpires into something horrific and deep?"

*The phone rings, it's your mother. She's worried about you. You haven't come out of your room in 2 months. Please answer the phone*

Lunaescence Archives 

It is a moderated archive dedicated to quality Anime, Manga, TV Show, Movies, Cartoons, Comics, and Gaming FanFiction. All the stories in this archive have been screened for spelling and grammar. The authors that post their stories don't need to be perfect, but the site does recognize the importance of good writing. All authors featured on these pages are talented and gifted writers, each with their own unique style and genre. Also, in addition to fanfiction they also welcome authors of original prose and poetry.

The moderators are responsible for checking and approving stories and chapters, and for validating authors. It's unlike those fanfic sites (i.e. fanfiction.net, quizilla) that contain absolutely horrible stories with terrible spelling, format and grammar. It's also easy to request new categories and characters to be added. All you need to do is to visit the forum.

The mods are all polite, helpful, and quick to answer any questions you have. They actually commuicate with the users of the site unlike Fanfiction.net where they don't do anything, take forever to reply, or don't talk to you when you ask them about things or problems that happen.
Author: "You should got to Lunaescence."

Author 2: "Lunaescence? What's that?"

Author: "It's Lunaescence Archives, a fanfiction site. It's a whole lot better then Quizilla and Fanfiction.net. I recommend you to check it out. They actually care about the users and listen to their thoughts and help them out when they are stuck or have a problem. Plus, the stories are really good because they check for grammar and spelling. So you don't have to worry about stories that are garbage and look like they were written by 8 year olds."

metal-archives 

metal-archives (also known as Encyclopaedia Metallum: Metal Archives) is a user-edited website, established in 2002, which purports to be a heavy metal-focused database. Although the site has garnered a reputation over the years for being "elitist" and "strict" on what can/cannot be included, many bands listed there are actually folk, ambient, industrial, gothic rock and other "headbang worthy" music their site "rules" forbade, otherwise. When you couple this with the secretive personalities of those who moderate/administer everything over there, Metal Archives has the same credibility (and "metal-bility") as Milli Vanilli by the end of the day.
METALHEAD: Metal forums should not be run like a fascist regime! And some metalcore/nu-metal shit is making it beyond the radar here? Fuck it, I'm finding another site to frequent that is actually METAL, not "metal-archives".

HERR WITCHER: I dub thee Dursted, then!

METALHEAD: What the hell is that supposed to mean?

HERR WITCHER: When we ban people from our specialz metal site, it is called dursting, like Fred Durst.

METALHEAD: For a metal site, you have an awfully strange fixation with Fred Durst!

metal-archives 

A website that defines bands by naming their genre and other such information; thus immortalising this information and making it final.

People visit this site then think they become the TRU MASTAS OF METAL!!!111 because they can read that Pig Destroyer are Grindcore.
Internet guy 1: Dude Cannibal Corpse are pretty good.
Internet guy 2: lol no i dunt like gore metal.

Internet guy 2: ermm dont fink so metal-archives said it's death/gore metal so there not death metal idiot!

imposible, perhaps the archives are incomplete

Metal-Archives (Encyclopaedia Metallum) 

An internet database of all things metal that makes teenagers run to the urban dictionary and post their angst induced feelings about the Metal Archives because their favorite ha4dc0re!@! but non-metal band was rejected.

Side Note: By doing this I have fallen in to the bullshit "my opinion matters" trap too.
Conversation at The Metal-Archives (Encyclopaedia Metallum)

Brv0tal Kid: Why is lunkin park rejected from da acrhivez, they are fucken metal!!

MA Mod: Uh.. no they are not, sorry.

Brv0tal Kid: Fuck youa are just a bunch of elitist pricksz, they are hardcore and fukn awesome. It doesn't matter if they are metal or not.

MA Mod: If it doesn't matter if they are metal or not, then why do you care so much about them being rejected.

MA Mod: and when submitting a band to the Archives, it kind of defeats the whole purpose of the website if we accept any band. Otherwise we would call is the Music Archives and add any band to our database.

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.

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).
Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."

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.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.
