trolldar 

A trolldar (or 'troll radar') is the feeling one has when they suspect they are being fed false information just to provoke a response (also known as 'trolling').

This acts much like a gaydar, in that it is totally intrinsic, and based on the interpretation of information one is given.
Steve: "Hey Larry, what do you think is the worst name ever?"
Larry: "It's got to be the name 'Steve'. What a stupid name. Anyone called Steve should be either killed, or made to eat their own shit!"
Steve: *suspects Larry is just trying to annoy him* "You're trolling me aren't you?"
Larry: "Yes I am. Good to see your trolldar is working"...

Trollarch 

A "company" started by YouTuber MinnesotaBurns created for the purpose of trolling hackers, children, and ragers on Xbox Live, in particular, on Call of Duty. While trolling, he will claim to be the CEO of Trollarch as Jon Trollsten. Usually, he will inform the player (who is usually a hacker who is no older than 16) that they will be banned unless they follow Jon's commands (which may include requesting a parent). After this, all hell breaks loose. "Jon" will usually infuriate the player or player's parent(s) by giving them false telephone numbers such as 1-800-thisisnotreal, make controversial statements such as asking them on a date even though they may be married, or simply call the hacker names such as "douchebag" or "pathetic shitbag" to piss them off. Ragers are usually trolled in 1 v 1 matches by having their asses kicked followed by an insult from MinnesotaBurns to get them really mad. Since its creation, Trollarch's "staff" (MinnesotaBurns' subscribers) has reached over 265,000 people. Trollarch staff may also take part in the trolling by mimicking MinnesotaBurns' strategies in trolling and posting their results on YouTube for the lulz. Trollarch has also helped to create catchphrases from MinnesotaBurns including the most famous, "The chicken is burning." Trollarch has helped to shine a light on the good side of trolling: pissing off and helping to ban hackers and annoying raging kids from Xbox Live.
"Hey dude, are you part of Trollarch staff?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Wanna do some trolling on COD?"
"Not now, man. The chicken is burning."

trollware 

Software that seems to troll you because of its bad development. Constantly crashing, lagging, not responding, jittery movements, incorrect behaviors. These symptoms can become as taxing to the user as a forum troll or a troll living under a bridge forcing you to pay to cross the bridge.
This trollware is killing me, why the hell does Lync keep crashing? I can't screen share without crashing, I can't IM without "Not Responding". I am surprised Microsoft is still releasing trollware this bad!

Trollfare 

When trolls on internet messageboards and forums wage warfare against each other, and usually involves increase of aggression from the "war of words" between forum members, to full-scale guerilla-troll tactics, waged until one troll accepts defeat and deletes their account, usually to reincarnate under another user name. Trollfare between groups, forums and messageboards, requires a degree of planning and application of trolling strategy to be conducted effectively in reaching their assumed objectives and goals.

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.
