An elko is a little shit. Normally associated with the after curry belly burn, when despite the complete agony of stomach cramps, all you can muster is a runny little turd. This called an elko.

Williston-Elko High School 

This school is a complete shit show. Everyday girls go to the bathroom and snort pills (you can hear that shit loud and clear.) our principal is Mr. fucking incredible times 10 in size. He looks like a whale and he’s bald. We have had multiple coaches and teachers sleep with students and each other, leading them to get fired. We barely have any teachers cause they are too cheap to hire anyone else. The teachers either get fired, are foreign, crackheads, or they die. We have a shitty cafeteria that we don’t even use. We have to share everything with the middle school. We don’t have a school nurse. The students run their mouths about shit they don’t know, and about people they don’t know. There are roaches everywhere. They don’t clean the classrooms or bathrooms. We can’t go outside. The auditorium and band room are completely falling apart. Long story short, this school is a joke. Don’t come unless you want to catch chlamydia when you walk through the door.
Williston-Elko High School is one of the worst and the most broke school you can attend. Most come and either leave or go to the closest private school JDA.

Elkoholic 

A noun meaning .... One who loves, Elk the large deer like animal, (Wapiti) mostly found in western United States. An Elkoholic, studies elk and their habits constantly, learns to mimic their sounds, and waits all year for the season they can hunt and kill the animal they most revere. They almost always are seekers of trophies and somehow bestow admiration on other Elkoholics that posses large, impressive, specimens of the animal. Most do plan to eat the animal they hunt, so it is alright with the world. Elkoholics probably have replaced Mastdonoholics, for obvious reason, (and thankfully so.) I must admit to Elkoholism.

Elkoholic may also be used as an adjective, to describe a condition of containing many Elk. (Such as) This spot in the forest certainly appears Elkoholic.
Danial talks constantly about his hunting of elk; so much so it seems he is hoping to become considered an Elkoholic.

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.
