To pull a Tom Schmitz 

Pulling a Tom Schmitz per definition is referring to a mental state, in which input is blocked from the brain.

That is, the person that is "Pulling a Tom Schmitz" does not react, nor reflect on the information that is being transmitted to him/her from the outside environment.

While some people claim it has to do with an abundance of grease within the persons ear canal, the non-reflective look in the individuals eyes hints on a higher level of soul selling that is being conducted in the very moment a "Tom Schmitz is pulled".

The mental state can last up to 18 minutes without interruption.

Careful: Waking a Tom Schmitz pulling person up can result in the confusion of this person, a sub-state that can take days to recover from. Tom Schmitz pulling persons need to revive from the 5th Dimension in a self-aware manner.

Common Slang in the Central European Area.
Person A: "Hey what do you want to have for lunch?"

*No reaction*

*No reaction*

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.
