A more apropos term for the medium-sized sub-planetary solar system bodies recently designated non-planets by the International Astronomers' Union. Replaces "dwarf planets," sounds fun and interesting, and could get you extra credit in an astronomy class.
"My spacecraft is headed for the planito Pluto."
"I visited the planito Ceres. Here's a planito rock!"
"Studies suggest that there may be hundreds of planitos in trans-Neptunian orbits."

plankton uchiha 

A name belonging to a semi-known Rust cheater who has cheated on many Icefuse servers (particularly Warden 2x) during late-spring to late-summer of 2020. They're rumors that this person went back onto Icefuse in December 2020 but got banned due to cheating. They're also rumors that he wasn't cheating in Rust (in December), but using a hack for the game "Among Us". This player was in the clans, "gayz", "BO99", "999", "BOPP", "damm", "damn", "ESP", and several others. This player has used the handles, "plankton uchiha", "ploonkton uzumaki", "ez claps ez smacks", "Triple Heady Go To Beddy" (not the original), and several others. This player has bypassed several HWID bans (given by Rust) and several Icefuse bans. He was nearly banned when his online friend (AuraLoL) went against him as a wipe (as a challenge) and gave all the evidence that plankton gave him, unfortunately, plankton was afk at the time of the report being reviewed.
Nick #BeamerSZN: Remember plankton uchiha?
AuraLoL: Fuck you, kid. That's my homie.

office plankton

A phrase of (presumably) Russian origin that is used as an offensive description of a regular office worker. The punch comes from the fact that experienced office workers are completely stripped of their personalities and idiosyncrasies, concerned or interested about nothing outside their comfy cubicles, making their appearance similar to that of plankton - mindless and expressionless creatures at the bottom of food chain left at the mercy of those higher up.
14 yo. George: the last thing I want to become when I grow up is office plankton like my parents - they seem miserable and completely powerless. This sucks!

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.
