encyclopaedia metallum
A heavy metal forum that has perhaps the largest collection of pricks and/or douchebags. Dominated by pseudo intellectuals and nerds that have nothing better to do but congregate with other morons about their favorite br00tal music. They give a very bad image to metalheads.
Everyone there seems to have the exact same ideology on numerous subjects, such as the existence of aliens "out there". Go try trolling them, you'll see how pathetic and stupid they really are.

Troll: Hey, your favorite bands blow.
Basement monkey (any admin on encyclopaedia metallum, really): rage rage rage rage rage
Troll: Ever stopped to think why your band is so "under ground"? Maybe it's because so few people like it since it's a shitty band?
Army of basement monkeys (all other forum members): rage rage rage

Encyclopaedia Dramatica
An ingenious, satirical wiki that ridicules everything it has a page of and that is constantly criticized by whiny bitches who have nothing better to do than write entries in Urban Dictionary that attempt to talk shit about ED when in reality all they do is fail and makes the writers of those entries look like losers.

Encyclopaedia BritMalia
That one photo album on your phone from that 'lads' holiday that you can't even look at anymore without having war flashbacks to sunburnt and vomit inducing sex with a girl who's name was so bad that you wished her parents had been a little bit more educated.
Hey can I look through your photos from that lads holiday you went on?
No way! Its a veritable Encyclopaedia BritMalia in there

Metal-Archives (Encyclopaedia Metallum)
An internet database of all things metal that makes teenagers run to the urban dictionary and post their angst induced feelings about the Metal Archives because their favorite ha4dc0re!@! but non-metal band was rejected.
Side Note: By doing this I have fallen in to the bullshit "my opinion matters" trap too.

Conversation at The Metal-Archives (Encyclopaedia Metallum)
Brv0tal Kid: Why is lunkin park rejected from da acrhivez, they are fucken metal!!
MA Mod: Uh.. no they are not, sorry.
Brv0tal Kid: Fuck youa are just a bunch of elitist pricksz, they are hardcore and fukn awesome. It doesn't matter if they are metal or not.
MA Mod: If it doesn't matter if they are metal or not, then why do you care so much about them being rejected.
MA Mod: and when submitting a band to the Archives, it kind of defeats the whole purpose of the website if we accept any band. Otherwise we would call is the Music Archives and add any band to our database.

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.

EBK
EBK stands for "Elite Ball Knowledge." 1 In internet slang, "ball knowledge" originally referred to a deep understanding of football/soccer or basketball, but it has evolved into a broader term for having a highly sophisticated, deep, or niche understanding of any specific topic (such as music, movies, or subcultures).
