Coffeespeak 

1. The distinctive language only intelligible by coffee drinkers referring to method of preparation and sizing often confusing for noobs. All of which contributes to a lack of logical thinking.
2. A specific distinctive language that each individual coffee shop uses to describe sizes and drinks often in direct conflict with competitors coffeespeak. A deliberate intent to exploit with the aim of oppressing coffee drinkers.
Example 1: "short skinny wet cappuccino"= small, low fat, with milk light brown espresso drink with a foam on top.
Example 2: short= smallest tall=small grande= medium and venti= large.
Example 3: Don't demean me with your coffeespeak. I am new here and I don't want any doubleplusungood, I just want a cup of coffee with a shot of espresso in it. Mondo, adshot, whatever!

coffeeshopesque 

exuding the general comfortable, casual, trendy, homely, creative, and/or peaceful atmosphere of the family-owned cafe downtown.
There's this tiny java place I go to all the time to work, read, or just chill out. I like it 'cause it's so coffeeshopesque, you know? Real coffee smell, old leather couches, open mic night on Thursdays... nothing like the machine-generated Starbuckses on every street corner.

Perveyor of premium coffees 

Somebody, a perv, who enjoys coffee enemas. Just for the heck of it or because of the deep cleansing effect before anal sex.
Howard is a perveyor of premium coffees. After his Starbucks experience he likes to spray paint the wall behind the toilet while he bends over and shouts "Onwards Howard".

coffeeshop 

in most countrys its a place were you can get coffee (sounds logic, eh?)

but in the lovely netherlands its a place were you can legaly buy chronic in all its forms. how cool is that? well, the coffeeshop-concept has its good and maybe even its bad sides, but the facts are that the state earns much money by the taxes on the weed and that the netherlands are loved by its pothead neighbours belgium and germany for this shops (and for a lot more of course).
if you go to amsterdam, visit a coffeeshop! its a realy cool feeling to get high with no fear of being caught..but don't stay there too long, the city is also a nice place besides this!

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."

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.
