last bitch effort
noun, potentially a verb last bich ef-fert: That person I met online, hung out with a few times and drops off the face of the Earth. All of a sudden they resurface after a few weeks with an "explanation". Usually with the "I wasn't ready" excuse.
Me:"You know that guy I slept with a few weeks ago and really liked but he decided to hit it and quit it".
Friend: " Yeah"
Me: "Well I finally heard from him yesterday-he said 'I am not really good at this and just not ready for it. It's not fair and I'm sorry'."
Friend: "What the hell does that mean? Why did he even contact you again after you stopped talking to him"
Me: "Not sure, but it was probably just a 'last bitch effort' because there were no other takers either".

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.
