The Hoskins

The morally repugnant, visually deplorable, and physically gruesome act of engaging in sexual intercourse with an extremely robust woman who was most likely the failed genetic offspring of a reproductive scientist's attempt to crossbreed Rosie O'Donnell, an Amazonian Manatee, a Naked Mole Rat, Chris Farley, and a Blobfish. Often, doing "The Hoskins" is caused by ingesting massive amounts of alcohol, poor friendship, and a serious psychological defect which allows the perpetrator to push past the normal threshold where an average person would succumb to violent puking seizures and the complete retraction of the male reproductive organs inside the body (as a turtle does when danger is near).

Additionally, "The Hoskins" may refer to a dance move in which an individual outstretches their arms in a semi-circular fashion (as if trying to give a bear hug), bends their knees, and furiously thrusts their pelvis at a number of different speeds and angles. "The Back Brace" is a popular variation of "The Hoskins" in which the dancer places one hand upon the lower back while making facial expressions that indicate severe pain and discomfort.
Jim: "Hey Don, did you hear about M.J. last weekend? He did 'The Hoskins'!!!"

Don: "That sick fucker. I wouldn't do The Hoskins with someone else's dick and the ability to erase memories!"

Or

Girl 1: "What is that guy doing over there?"

Girl 2: "I think he's doing "The Hoskins" with the back brace variation."

Girl 1: "That is sooo sexy. I wish someone would teach me how to do "The Hoskins"!

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.

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.
