A sub genre of romantic comedy (rom com) in which an absurd number of A-B list actors are cast. Ostensibly, this allows for "intertwining" plot lines, but is clearly designed to maximize revenue by appealing to all conceivable demographics.

"Valentine's Day" is a rom com clown car, starring everyone who has ever lived.

rom surfing 

Channel surfing but for video game roms. Common for console modders with nothing better to do. They're Likely to only play a game for less than ten minutes before declaring falsely that they shall continue sometime and moving on to the next game. They crave instant gameplay and novelty which leads them to playing many licensed games. Usually they aren't big on rpgs. Afterwards they often come back to a popular game they're familiar with as a form of comfort food.

"Man I've been rom surfing on this genesis emulator for an hour I should really find something and stick to- holy shit there's a tick game!?"

ROM hack 

ROM hacking is the process of modifying a ROM image (usually of a video game) to alter the game's graphics, dialogue, levels, gameplay, and/or other elements. This is usually done by technically inclined video game fans to breathe new life into a cherished old game, as a creative outlet, or to make essentially new unofficial games using the old game's engine.

Have you played Nazi Penis Cartel Freedom Fighters 1337 before? It's a ROM hack game!
