7 Cities 

7 Cities or Seven Cities refer to the Hampton Roads region of Virginia, located in the state's extreme southeastern corner. Though there are several other counties and cities in the region, the name is derived from the 7 larger core cities that make it up; Chesapeake, Hampton, Newport News, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Suffolk, and Virginia Beach.

7 Cities 

A passing fad of that is a misnomer for the Hampton Roads region of southeastern Virginia, USA.

It is considered a misnomer because:
1) It does not identify the area in any concrete terms.

2) The name excludes a large portion of the metropolitan area in southeastern Virginia (Williamsburg, Poquoson, York County, Northeast North Carolina, Gloucester, Franklin, Smithfield, Isle of Wight)

3) It doesn't make any sense to say I live in the 7 cities. Really, you live in 7 different places.
You: Yo dude, lets hang in the 7 cities tonight!

Me: Man, that word is so 2000. I'm going to Norfolk.

A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
