set the edge
An excuse used for a badly missed tackle in Madden. It suggests that the user deliberately "set the edge" so that the computer assistance could aid in bringing the runner down. It also implies that the user has deep understanding of gap philosophies. The phrase is often used as a defense mechanism to cover up for a lack of general skill, particularly in tackling. User generally thinks they are the best Madden player ever.
*Brandon runs with Lamar Jackson to the left and jukes Krishn on the way to a 59 yard gain.*
Krishn: Thank God I set the edge. That run would have been a touchdown for sure!

Edgenuity
Little known fact, Edgenuity is actually a salvaged concentration camp torture method that was dubbed too intense for use in WWII. The germans locked the contents up in an ancient server room with a label saying "DANGEROUS". When architects found the server room, however, because they were english they mistook dangerous in German (GEFÄHRLICH) for a roughly translated merge of the words "GOOD FOR LE CHILDREN". So, they repolished the ancient program as an education program and sold it to Edgenuity for thousands. The "long and boring" you refer to is simply a part of the torture methods of this program.
"D-Did they send you to edgenuity?" said Johnny
I just nodded at Johnny, showing him the bruises on my body.

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.
