Daguerreotype 

C'mon, be honest with yourself. The word "daguerreotype" doesn't make you think of photographs. It makes you think of something ethnic. Something saucy. Something like an evil Mexican sorcerer.

Legend has it that Daguerreotype only walks among the living when he is bored with feasting on the dead.

Noted city wise woman Ana Garcia Velasquez Garcia Ramon responded shrilly, "DON'T SAY THE NAME!!!" It is said that Ramon disappeared that night, and inside his house only the curious smell of stale taco shells remained...

The village elders claim that Dastardly Daguerreotype lived among the dinosaurs, and when one of them sassed him by stealing one of his Daguerreoplants, he wiped out the entire species as just recompense.

It was Daguerreotype's sins that made God summon forth the Great Flood.

Slower Dauphin

Slower Dauphin is another word for Lower Dauphin High School in Hummelstown, PA. It is the worst school anyone could possibly go to. there's always some kind of disgustingness going on there. whether it be people having sex in the bathroom, drug busts, or just plain stupidity. When people say they are going to fight someone they don't. People think they're tough shit because they can say someone about them over facebook or twitter. Teachers give you detentions for no reason. The principals don't know what's going on in the school. The football team is horrible and haven't won since... well ever. The cookies are only cooked for about 5 minutes giving you terminal illness. The nurses wouldn't send you home if your arm was falling off. And the teachers tend to "lose" homework even though you handed it in causing you to get a zero for the assignment.

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.
