Jet fuel can't melt steel beams

A phrase referring to 9/11. This phrase is normally used by conspiracists that 9/11 was inside job carried out by the U.S. under President George Bush. The argument is that the steel beams that collapsed within the tower causing it to fall, could not have been melted by the heat from the collision of the plane. Meaning that the building could have been intentionally brought down via explosives, specifically using thermite, that can melt steel and leave no evidence behind.
Person A: 9/11 was such a mournful day in history. Screw Terrorists!!
Person B: Yeah....the terrorists are the government. Jet fuel can't melt steel beams.

jet fuel can't melt steel memes 

A spin off of the phrase "jet fuel can't melt steel beams," referring to the tragedy of 9/11 where conspirators say that it must have been an inside job for this reason. To shame this phrase, it has become a meme of sorts and people use it jokingly. The replacement of the word "beams" to "memes" was simply further fuckery with the phrase.
"We shall now bow our heads in a moment of silence for those who lost their lives on this tragic day."
*voice in the crowd* "Jet fuel can't melt steel memes ,"

*conspirators chanting* "inside job. Inside job. Inside job. Inside job..."

Beyond Gasoline. If someone's Jet Fuel towards you, they're being more than hostile- they're being a complete C-less Castle.

Also "permagasoline". (but not always. Usually just "feels" permanent.)
Braaten:
Hypothetically, lets say I was having a bad day and was "gasoline" towards
you. If, at that time, you were to spray me in the face with diesel fuel from a squirt bottle, it would result in an instant eruption of violence, as well as putting me into a Jet Fuel mood towards you. And I can tell you
that most people who are not paralytically timid would react in a similar manner. Under no circumstances to any person would such an action improve your standing with them.

ADD-ON: I'd suggest buying Diesel brand clothes instead. That may lower peoples' gasolinism, depending on the person and fashion choice.

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.
