Urban Leftionary 

A word that describes the leftist nature of the Urban Dictionary website. It points to the "leftist" political leanings on the site, whether by choice of the site and its administrators itself or by nature of the individuals who patron the site who post definitions with such leanings.

It is used to describe the phenomenon when you first open the Urban Dictionary website and see that all "words of the day" are disparagements against Republican or right-leaning public figures, complaints about voting, and traditional conservative sayings, among other things.

The reason this is the case is because it is the modus operandi of politically left-leaning individuals take to forums, social media, and any other online site that they can edit - such as Urban Dictionary, Wikipedia, or even Pintrest - to try and edit history or create a new history in which all information points the direction they want it to. For more information, read the book 1984 by George Orwell.
Person 1: Yo, I just visited Urban Dictionary and all of the current words of the day are stupid shit like "Trump Fluffer", "Trump Lung", "Voter Fatigue", "B.C.V.", and "Thoughts and Prayers".

Person 2: Yeah, that's Urban Leftionary making itself known.

Person 1: Why tho?

Person 2: Most likely because the people who patron the site are just leftists without any actual political clout, and this makes them angry. The goal of those on the political left is to create a regime in which people are shamed, ostracized, cancelled, or perhaps worse, over any idea, value, moral, tradition, or thought that could potentially be perceived as aggressive, racist, bigoted, homophobic, sexist, or hateful.

Person 1: But that don't make no sense doe... those definitions are connotatively hateful.

Person 2: Don't try to make any sense out of it, the left is the epitome of hypocrisy. It most often utilizes facism, hate speech, violence, and intolerance to achieve its goals.

Person 1: Sounds like they just want political and cultural power, and they no different.

Person 2: That's right. Most of them are impotent of any actual power, so they take to online forums and social media to band together as a group, because their ideas are generally useless and not based in reality unless other red-faced shouting people support them, upvote, like, or emoji them.

Person 1: Ahh, now I understand why Urban Leftionary is the way it is.
A simple combination of the two words lack and action meaning just that; a lack of action. See also Lacktion

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.
