Basil's Walmart 

When a keyboard warrior condescendingly suggests that participating in democracy is lazy or näive, and that the real way to enact meaningful change in the world is to commit some act of righteous political violence, and then goes on to do no such terroristic act, opting instead to continue to participate in more internet flame wars. Used by edgy teens and armchair anarchists to prove how cool and woke they are.

basil strawberry sangria 

This is basically the most potent jungle juice on the planet. It's only found in affluent households celebrating a birthday or some other annual occasion. Once per year is about the body can withstand.

It's made by filling one of those fancy plastic beverage dispensers with whatever high alcohol content booze they have in the liquor cabinet. Probably vodka, champagne and clear liquors. It's never diluted with anything without alcohol. There will likely be strawberries and other fruit cut up into it, and maybe some frozen fruit or concentrate to chill it. The host typically will leave a 2 liter of Sprite nearby to satisfy the homeowner's insurance, but it's frowned upon to dilute it.

The presence of a warning sign of some sort is obligatory.

This drink will make girls kiss each other, and participate in all sorts of general mayhem. Drink accordingly...
Susan had the best basil strawberry Sangria at her birthday party last night. Did you see how much Wanda drank?

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!
