Perryism
A truly awful disease in which the suffer is under the sad delusional belief that Steve Perry will actually release another album.
There is currently no known treatment. Sufferers cannot comprehend the truth, preferring to hold on to the delusion at all costs in spite of the insurmountable evidence. These sad people need our sympathy, and a hug.

perryloon
The name given to diehard fans of one Steve Perry, former frontman of a once mildly popular American rock band way back in the 1980's. These so called fans are normally comprised of morbidly obese fat sad old women and equally chuncky sad beer swilling lonely men. These creepy weirdos are characteristically paranoid and delusional, with an IQ lower than a slugs' johnson. They tend to collect together in groups, in the same way sewage gathers in the bottom of septic tank. One such gathering place is perryville, a chat forum now forced underground due to all the negativity and ill feeling it created. Once a group has formed paranoia compels the stronger members attack and bully the weaker members, or anyone who shows signs of intelligence or compassion. The remaining floaters then turn on each other. The women suffer the delusion that Steve Perry loves them and is going to marry them, the irony being lost on them. And the men are under the amusing delusion that their beer soaked venom passes as intelligence. These people are certifiable, unpleasant and best avoided.
Perryloons refuse to accept that Steve Perry left Journey twenty years ago. They delude themselves into believing that without Steve Perry Journey ceased to exist, this despite Journey continuing to record and release albums. They firmly believe that the other members of Journey plotted to remove him. No. His voice went. Deal with it!
Sometimes the simple answer is the right one, and believe me, these wackos need simple answers.

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.
