Couch Auction 

When a group of Facebook trolls find random live streams and ask about an imaginary couch they are selling. These trolls normally focus on Pearl Parties and Jewelry Showcases being broadcasted on Facebook Live by old women. If one person asks, they look stupid, but when these trolls come in numbers 20+, they are powerful. They will call the broadcaster the opposite gender to anger them more.

These trolls will send messages like:
"Am I too late for the couch auction?"
"Young man/lady, did you sell the couch yet?"
"Hi, is the couch still for sale?"
"Hello, I saw a craigslist ad that said you were selling a couch."
"Your friend Ashanti told me you're selling a couch."
"Show us the couch little girl/boy."
"Shoe on head"

The only way to fend these trolls off is putting a shoe on your head. They take a screenshot, put it in their troll group, then leave. All in all, they are very harmless and will not post obscene or vulgar messages on your live video. They just want to buy your couch or see a shoe on your head.
Lady: Ok everyone, here is number 22 it is a silver neckla-
Troll: Hi young man, am I too late for the Couch Auction?
Lady: No, this is not a couch auction and I am not a man. This is a jewelry showcase.
Troll: Ashanti sent me. She said you're selling your couch. Do not lie, little boy
Lady: I am not selling a couch! Get a life
Troll: Shoe on head

Bf:I love you

Gf: I love you too but you don't show it..
Gf: actions speak louder than words

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.
