cotton face
Once a term used with racial hate undertones has now been used widely amongst Gen X marijuana smokers for an entirely different reason with zero derogatory racial intentions. Quite hilarious situation to describe having an extreme case of 'cotton mouth'. AKA 'dry mouth' one of the common side effects from using marijuana. The jump from a standard case of cotton mouth to cotton face requires one of two or both of the following symptoms.
1) Mouth is so dry your tongue will almost stay stuck to your pallet / roof of your mouth making it nearly impossible to speak normally. Feels like if you don't get something to drink immediately you could choke on your own tongue or even your throat will seal shut. & 2) mouth so dry its now affecting your face and it does this when your lips get stuck up above the gum line of teeth. Much like the 'Fire Marshall Bill' character from "In Living Color" comedy skit show of the early 90's played by Jim Carrey.

When hot boxing the car like we use to as teenagers, not only did it bring back some good nostalgic feelings but also some not so fun things like the moment you realize during a stoned monologue about whatever stony minds tend to ponder about just ranting away happily to the sudden urgent need to wet your whistle as lips get curled under and above your gum line and tongue becomes impossible to use correctly in speech as it gets stuck to roof of your mouth. your friends all look at one another and all painfully laugh cause we all have cotton face with lips above the gum line. Roll the window down and lets get a drink !

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.

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.
