Tug of War  

The act of combining fornication or sodomy with the playing of tug of war using a dog's chew toy. This position works best if one participant lays on his or her back, and their partner sits on their lap. The tug of war type doggy chew toy is then placed with opposing ends in each of the participants mouths. If the participant on the bottom is male, he can fornicate or sodomize his partner while they struggle to pull the chew toy from each other.

The act of fighting against one's partner in order to pull the chew toy from them causes a very pleasurable sensation for one's genitalia, and growling and snarling with bared teeth can uniquely heighten the moment of orgasm, and contribute a primal, bestial quality that is far too often missing from everyday sex.

The act can be performed heterosexually or homosexually.
"The PE teacher at the local highschool was fired for telling his students to play Tug of War with him."

"I always wondered why my boyfriend kept a dog's chew toy in his room when he never had a dog. After we played Tug of War last night, I understood."

"I ripped out a tooth last night playing Tug of War."

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.
