Tweetocracy 

Tweetocracy: a new brand of governance bereft of facts, detail, collaboration, or wisdom.
Our democracy and our democratic institutions are quickly being replaced by Trump's unique brand of tweetocracy

Thotocracy 

1.) The unlimited authority, power, or influence of thots.

2.) A social system in which power is held by thots, through cultural norms and customs empowered by Third Wave Feminism that favor thots. This system shames and withholds opportunity from women who aren't thots and men who don't support thottery. Power is often maintained with social criticism, Twitter mobs, social isolation, doxxing, and firing.
1.) Snapchat and Twitch are real Thotocracies.

2.) Tyrone got piled on by a Twitter mob and fired from his job because he told his sister he didn't want her opening a premium Snapchat.

Yea, that's the Thotocracy for you.

Twistocracy

When you tell a truth that goes down the line like a chain letter in a gossip filled bunch of townies.
Yo' J, that twistocracy you keep slinging is wack dawg. My ass is really that smexy.

tiktocracy 

(1) A society living under the late-stage hegemonic rule of social media, which has been reduced to its most ridiculous, suspect, unverified, and useless form -- i.e., an endless individualized algorithmic feed of short, often obnoxious, assertion-filled videos created by random persons one does not know nor has any reason to believe or trust.

(2) A society experiencing a rapid erosion of veracity and rigor, and an explosion of inattention and confirmation bias.
As the country has slid further and further into its tiktocracy phase, it has become more and more difficult to know what is important, what is factual, who any of these people yelling shit at me from my phone are, let alone why I should care what they have to say or what stupid shit they do.

Is it just me, or does living in this tiktokracy make us stupider by the second?

Frothability 

The measure of an emotional and over zealous consumer in an upwardly charging market, also known as a bull market. It's characterized by rising asset prices, increased investor confidence, and favorable growth in the markets, bro.
The frothability was evident as over-zealous consumers eagerly engaged in bidding wars, driving property prices to unsustainable levels reminiscent of previous speculative bubbles.

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.
