Platter Bum 

When you go to a restaurant with a group of friends or family, where in each is on a meal budget and all order somthing diffrent so as to share.
The Platter Bum is the individual who went ahead and ordered an expencive dish (thus distinguishing thereself by putting on airs as the rich guy) but does not share. Others in the party will notice and feel slightly annoyed.
Then when everyone is served, the Platter bum then askes others around them if they could try a sample of what others are eating in order to "see if they like it."
Others will feel compelled to be polite and offer the morsel to the Platter Bum while they secretly resent the fact that they have only a small meal to satisfy themself with while the Platter Bum has a frigg'n buffet, half untouched in front of them.
NOTE: The Platter Bum usualy never finishes their meal and leaves most of their food to be wasted. This also will piss off company who may still be hungry or may have been the one treating the group to the meal.
One family member to anther at a dinner at a restaurant paid for by their father:

Relative 1 : "Jeez! Would ya look at that pig!"

Relative 2 : "Huh? Who ya talkin about?"

Relative 1 : "That uppity cousine from the country. He found out dad was paying and he ordered the most expensive steak on the menu."

Relative 2 : "That little turd! All I had was a grilled chicken salid."

Relative 1 : "Yeah, and he's been begging food bites from everyone around him and hasn't touched his own plate. What's he doing? Saving it for later?"

Relative 2 : "I agree. He's being a real Platter Bum tonight. Dad aught to tell him off and not pay for his meal."

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.
