but first let me take a selfie
Humanity has finally hit 100% retardedness. A son was actually made about taking a selfie. A girl is in a bathroom taking selfies and talking about boys and throwing up at any chance she can (probably because she balimic ) but that story is for another day. While her friend wants to get out of the bathroom she says "But first let me take a selfie" making her possibly a worse person than Adolf Hitler himself.
Hey shaniqua ?
Yesh babez ?

The truth will set you free but first it’ll piss you off
In the end it’s better to tell the truth despite what happens because at least you won’t have that burden.
“How am I gonna tell my mom I crashed her truck? She'll kill me!”
“Listen the truth will set you free but first it’ll piss you off. That’s apart of life.”
“Listen the truth will set you free but first it’ll piss you off. That’s apart of life.”

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.
