A cute little internet face. The people who use it include, though are certainly -not- limited to, anime fans, furries, fan boys, fan girls, and azns. It's fun to use during conversations & informal roleplays.
The face is a emoticon, depicting a cuter way of closed eyes and expressing happiness.... in rare situations, the person may use this emoticon after doing a hate/bad thing... (or blackmail)
Not rare situation: "Heyy! How are you?? ^-^"
Rare situation: "Haha, I just exposed your dark secret ^-^..."
A relative to "^.^" and "^_^", "^,..,^" is a happy vampire.
(", ," being the fangs.)
variations of this include "o,..,o ; >,..,> ; v,..,v ; o,.., O ; T,..,T : ¬,..,¬ ; >,..,<"
A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.
For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
