hypotinuse 

To hypotinuse, used as a verb, is to cut straight through the bullshit of any situation, and go straight to the goal. Stemming from the ancient mongolian word hypotinuuuu, it is said that the creator of the word was worshiped with cult like fervor for his briliant creation. Sadly, the cult of hypotinuuuu has long since died out, but their word, with some minor changes, lives on within all of us.
I totally hypotinused that field yo. (cut straight through the middle)

Nah,I didnt wait for the second date, I hypotinused the shit out of the first one. (way to go playa)

Hypotenuse girl 

The other definition is not correct. A hypotenuse stands out in a crowd; not because she's pretty, but just because she stands out. It's usually because she's just weird. A hypotenuse girl is attractive enough to hook up with, but she is NOT attractive enough to brag about or tell your friends. Typically, hypotenuse girls listen to industrial music such as Tool, Nine Inch Nails, HIM, Alice In Chains, Korn, etc. Also, she may easily be found shopping for the ugliest articles in Hot Topic.

**Note: The original hypotenuse girl had a pointy chin that resembled the triangular term of hypotenuse.
Derek- Hey, dude, did you see that girl over there? What's up with her? Like, what is she?

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.

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.
