Nigga synthesis
nig-ga syn-the-sis: n. Perpetual bond between niggas over an appreciation of trivial or ignorant things. This is the opposite of a nigga moment, which is perpetual conflict between niggas over trivial or ignorant things. This is unlike a bond between friends or family members, which is mutually beneficial to all of the parties involved.
When a nigga moment collides with a nigga synthesis, you get a Complete (fucking) Disaster:
Nigga Moment + Nigga Synthesis = Complete Disaster.
Remember this equation, you will need it later nigga!

Synthesizer
A musical instrument that generates sound using oscillators, LFO's, filters, sequencers, and other things of that nature. Most true synthesizers are controlled with three things, a keyboard of various sizes, pitch bend and modulation wheels, and a complex interface of knobs and switches. The Minimoog is a great example of this. But the main thing that makes synthesizers so unique and beautiful sounding is that they are not limited by the physical world to create sound. They are not a string instrument, wind instrument, or percussion instrument. Synthesizers are classified as quintephones. Which means they create sound informaticly. Synthesizers are very expensive but are a great thing to own and use!
The Minimoog is a synthesizer with three oscillators, the very first electronic music filter ever created, and therefore sounds incredibly fat and meaty.
Synthesizers are primarily used for electronic music and classic rock.

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.
