A brand of car that came out of Sweden. Probably one of the best cars to make into a sleeper, many have been modded to have over 400hp. Unlike most people think, modern Volvos are in fact very good looking and very fast for their price.
That Volvo owned that ricer in his Honda.

Swedish automobile that will last forever. Pre-2000 they were very boxy, however after being purchased by Ford, their styling is much nicer. Known for having extremely comfortable seats.
My 1997 Volvo 850 GLT has 170k miles on it, has been partially frozen into a lake for a month, and can still go 140 mph. Everything works like the day it was new and it is faster and better looking than most of the ricers on the road.

The only car a true pimp would be seen in. Drivers are generally well equipped and don't need to compensate for anything. Best in yellow.
Wow, I wish I could get out of this prissy little Civic/Neon and into a nice Volvo.

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.
