city island 

home of matt bollati, sarima ali, liz borodkin, angelo labate, a few of my other friends, and a bunch of various potheads. people here do crazy stuff like skateboard off roofs into pools and smoke down at the beach and swim without lifeguards (GASP!). yeah basically it's an isolated suburb where it's safe to go out late at night because the only thing around are drug dealers and seafood restaurants.
city island is so fucking wack, it should be made into a whole other borough.

long island city 

A pretentious neighborhood that has received a high amount of gentrification in recent years. The piers at gantry are quite marvelous. The neighborhood lacks the infrastructure of it's neighbors greenpoint, and Astoria, and still has a lot of areas that face urban blight. Vernon boulevard boasts worldclass restaurants yet the largest housing projects can be found a mile away. Gleaming condos cannot hide the urine soaked streets and roaring seven train clatter. Did I mention five points will be removed from the area? The area is for yuppies who have no sense of life. Some old world brownstones hide under the seven train, and the moma ps1 is a great venue though.
"Lets bike to the piers at LIC, just make sure we speed through Queensbridge housing projects, we wouldnt want to see the real LIC" Long island city

Lets go get some overpriced food on vernon!i love yuppie long island city

New York City and Long island 

An odd pairing of the greatest, biggest, most sophisticated and cosmopolitan city in the world with some backwater, flat, conservative, obnoxious, whitebread, redneck, chickenshit boringass bunghole in the backwoods of Upstate New York. Contrary to Island belief, we New Yorkers do NOT consider Long Islanders to be our brethren.

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.

EBK stands for "Elite Ball Knowledge." 1 In internet slang, "ball knowledge" originally referred to a deep understanding of football/soccer or basketball, but it has evolved into a broader term for having a highly sophisticated, deep, or niche understanding of any specific topic (such as music, movies, or subcultures).
Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."
