Ambrodexterity 

The act of immediately purchasing two drinks when you enter a bar; a beer for one hand, and a mixed drink, such as a gin & tonic, for the other. The reasons for this technique are fivefold:

1) All night long, you look like a classy guy bringing another lady a drink. It is scientifically proven this will make other women more into you.

2) You become twice as drunk, in half the time.

3) Rather than worry about what to do with your hands, or stuff them into your pockets while you aren't dancing, they're busy holding two drinks.

4) Potential observant wingmen and bros can be snapped up once you explain the concept of ambrodexterity to them when they inquire as to why you're holding two drinks.

5) Whilst dancing, you have an excuse to use nothing btu hips.

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
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.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

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!
