When someone says something that may otherwise be mistaken as serious, but follows it with a smiley that helps reduce the tension and lets the second person know it was a joke.
A bucket that can be obtained in The Stanley Parable Ultra Deluxe after visiting the expo hall. The bucket changes endings to be bucket related. For example, the apartment ending becomes an ending where Stanley tries to have sex with the bucket.

(Reassurance Battery depleted needs recharging)
During the early parts of a relationship, when your anxiety ridden ass keeps waiting for the other shoe to drop, because you're used to every serious relationship going wrong. This one is different though and you know it, so you explain to her what you're feeling and she reassures you in the best way possible...on her knees.
You: Babe, I keep feeling like something is going to go wrong, even though I know we're going great. I guess I'm just too used to things going sideways for me, when I really like someone.
Her: Aww, baby, no. I think you need some reassurance head. (gets on knees and ties hair back).

"That guy's a soul digger. He'll expect you to work full time, but you'll be doing all the cooking, cleaning, laundry, shopping, and childcare while he plays video games or watches TV."
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."
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.
