beaver den
(noun) 1. The female version of a man cave; alternative term for she shed 2. A colloquial term used to describe a room or other location that is used as a place to relax and recharge or otherwise perform leisure activities, usually apart from the other inhabitants of the home.
Loosely deriving its name from the American idiom “busy as a beaver,” beaver dens are necessary areas of refuge for hard-working individuals that take on a lot of roles and who often put the needs of others above their own and are therefore susceptible to burnout. Beaver dens are most effective when visited regularly and adorned in a way that is pleasing to the main occupant. While the person to which the beaver den belongs may invite others into it at their own discretion, it is imperative that they be permitted to occupy it in solitude as well to remain in touch with their personal identity separate from any other titles they might possess.

I went home on spring break and found a new flat screen TV, crafting supplies and a wine fridge in my room; it turns out my mom turned it into her beaver den and I’m sleeping in the guest room.

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.

dead drop
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.

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.
