Trying not to in a way that leads to the desired outcome
And it's not even about the MONEY really. It's trying to steal it from me in a way that leaves me no recourse but at the same time in very public. You know you are letting those retards talk you into letting them steal it. But I just don't have to let them.
Hym "No Jordan you know that does not apply to this. This is you trying to take something away from me and then using my words as pretense. You don't get to take anything away from me. If you're just allowed to take thing from me we all know exactly what I'm going to take from the rest of them. You wany to deny me my every vapid desire. So now you are trying to not do what I want in a way that achieves your desired outcome and trying not to in a way that leads to the desired outcome in a way that requires me to do what you want instead. But I don't have to let you be an invisible barrier to my desire or even needs you cynically believe are desires. If you want me to follow ANY rule, Jordan, you need to enforce THIS SPECIFIC ONE. The one that says HE is not allowed to STEAL, Jordan. Like your book you love so much. That specific thing. I'll take that one, I'll take the stalking one, and hey I'll even take the harassment one. The only reason you are not enforcing the rules on me is to get away with breaking it yourself. I could have said the same thing to the managers at the group home."

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.

Blexas
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.
