chiobu
A chiobu is Singaporean slang for someone who is addicted to the internet, often to their own detriment. Chiobus are described as lonely, rude, and often make up dramatic details about their lives that aren't even true just so they get attention on the internet. Chiobus are very fickle with their internet friends, once you no longer serve a purpose to them, they often turn on you and try to make a spectacle of you online to detract from their own actions.
The slang term was coined on an internet forum two years ago due to an infamous case of a "Singaporean" man pretending to be married and rich who ended up being a poor American man in real life. When called out, he turned on each of his "friends" and tried to post threads about them to the controversial internet gossip forum KiwiFarms using alt accounts.
So, in short, "chiobu" essentially means a faker or liar, similar to what the slang term "snake" would be in the English language.

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.
