put a bird on it 

Phrase exclaimed when placing an image of an avian creature on any item, especially one that was "handcrafted" or "thrifted" so as to make it totally adorable and artistic. It's, like, soooooooo cute! Whether it's a necklace or a t-shirt or an iPad cover or a corset, it could probably use a bird on it.

From the IFC show Portlandia.
Hipster 1: Oh my god, I LOVE your tote bag, where did you get it?
Hipster 2: Oh this thing? I just bought it for $75 at Brooklyn Flea but it was so boring until I put a bird on it!
Hipster 1: You should sell it on Etsy!

Bird-doggin' it 

The act of crossing the street, by foot, illegally (when that red hand says otherwise, or you simply aren't even at an intersection though one is only a few feet away). This forces you to to sprint at high speeds, forgetting about the friends you left on the other side, simply because you are fearing for your life. Generally causes regret mid-way, but turning back is not an option. Often times the phrase, "Let's bird-dog it!" Is yelled pre-crossing, or ,"I'm bird-doggin' it!" is yelled mid-run.
May also be called "j-walking".
"Dude, this light is taking forever, we're never gonna cross the street."
"There's a slight opening in traffic! Let's just start bird-doggin' it!"

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."
