sub-suburban 

Not exactly suburban, yet not exactly rural. An example of a sub-suburban area is like there are houses every 300 feet, corn fields, one farm, wide horse pastures, prairies, one Walmart, a couple of paved roads, possibly a highway, two or three schools, and a McDonald's. All within an area of at least 100 square miles.

John: Oh sweet, lets fuck and raise enough children to fill up an entire school bus!

Kate: Fuck yeah, and give me a beer as long as your at it!

John: Here you go, and happy 18th birthday sis!

Kate: Thanks daddy!

Unfortunately, some YouTubers who do have great talent, creativity, and wonderful video quality sink to the bottom of the Mariana Trench as hundreds of boring videos surface the Pacific islands.

Sub elitists 

Scum. They hate the idea of people watching anime in English, no matter if the dub is good or not. They also most likely just watch a few seconds of a dub and immediately hate it because “ItS nOtHiNg LiKe ThE sUb!” They will say that anyone who watches the dub is retarded, braindead, have no taste, or that their opinion is wrong. They have no perception of the fact that either they have disabilities that make reading harder, are blind, or can’t focus on subtitles. Or the even bizarre fact that some people just prefer dubs because it’s their opinion.
Sub Elitists: DUB EWW🤮🤮🤮🤮 YOU PEOPLE ARE CRINGE! SUB IS SUPERIOR!
Normal person: Did you actually like I dunno… actually watch the dub? It’s actually pretty golden with entertaining dialogue and the emotional scenes hit harder with the main protagonist actually sounding depressed as opposed to his sub counterpart.

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.
