ghettotronic 

This new wave of music that peaks around December 2007 that combines dance/electronica/new wave with hip-hop, R&B music. Pretty awesome sound to it but it could get boring if it is overplayed. Better than this Soulja Boy crap that was worn out last year.

Ayo Technology is a great example of ghettotronic music.

ghettotorney 

A complete idiot of a litigator; a person who may or may not be a crack whore, a motherfucking pimp, or a common vagabond who, nevertheless, has somehow managed to pass the Bar Exam and represent clients before the courts. Unfortunately, this individual often cannot read and cannot formulate responses required by the judge. In many cases, this fool ignores court judgments and continues to create an endless pile of nonsensical documentation. An asshat.
My soon-to-be ex-husband's ghettotorney filed yet another motion for appeal today which makes no sense given that the judge already denied alimony and child support. That bitch is stupid.

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.

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.
