Paper Minnows 

Paper Minnows are the small fragments of toilet paper that remain near the bottom of the toilet bowl after taking a dump, wiping and flushing. Paper Minnows continue to float and move about the bowl in a fashion similar to Minnows in a lake, pond or fish tank and appear to be small opaque fish.
Dude someone just shat in there. Check out this toilet bowl. Look at all those Paper Minnows floating around down there. Whoa! Looks like one of the fish tanks in the pet department at Wal-Mart.

Sharks and minnows 

One child is the shark and stands in the middle of the yard. The other kids are the minnows and line up at one end of the yard. The object is for the minnows to get from one end of the yard to the other without being caught, aka tagged, by the shark. If tagged, then the minnow also becomes a shark.
Bob: Let’s play sharks and minnows

The children in his basement: Yeah

Bob: I’ll be the shark

Kids in the basement: ok

George Minkowski 

The phenomenon that occurs when one surrounds his neural tissue with enough alcohol that he believes he can travel in time between points in his life and simultaneously ruin events in the present and/or past & future. Almost always results in confusing and severe consequences for the traveler.
Yeah man, Fred came home and found his bosses swordfighting in his wife's mouth. He's getting George Minkowski'd tonight.

(NOTE FOR EDITORS: This is not a real person's name. This is a character on the popular show "Lost" who went nuts because he was traveling in time which left him between a catatonic and confused state that eventually lead to his death.)

Children of the Mennonites. Known for being very mystical. Typical attributes include small body frames, morbid bashfulness and an extreme curiosity towards electronics, most notably, televisions. It is widely accepted that the only way to break the stare of a minnow is to stare back with the intensity of wolverine. Thus rendering their power useless.
Yesterday, a large group of minnows caught me off guard while i attempted to sell a tv.

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.
