BenSmithing 

(v) A political tactic that disguises itself as journalism in order to protect Democrats, most specifically Barack Obama.

1. Something happens or is discovered that might hurt Obama.

2. That something is discovered in the alternative media and uncovered.

3. Ben Smith (or the equally dishonest PolitiFact and Media Matters) pretend to investigate it, write something up disguised as "definitive," and then hand the complicit media an excuse to ignore it.
The BenSmithing of the Obama-Bill Ayers connection deprived the American people of learning the truth.

Dude, did you see how the Eric Holder/Black Panther story got BenSmithed at Politico?

Bonesmashing is the art of manipulating one’s facial bone structure with tools such as a hammer to create a more defined jawline. It is a fundamental element of the looksmaxxing religion. It is an art reserved only of the elite looksmaxxers, and Ghandi.

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!
