Bus pusher

A bus pusher is a term used for a group of golfers who due to the complete incompetence of their bus driver were forced to push their minibus a distance of many miles because the driver was too short (sighted) to recognise that the fuel gauge was showing a dangerously low level of fuel. The passengers that day should have known not to trust the bus driver. He has previous instances of incompetent behaviour including doing a u-turn on the A90 while travelling at approx. 60 mph and not recognising that the big steel floating objects in Aberdeen harbour were actually boats.
John: I really don’t think you have enough diesel to make it back to the airport, there is a filling station up the road here I really think you should stop and put a fiver of diesel in

Casey: I agree with my fellow front seat passenger and expert navigator John, I would recommend stopping for a quick drop of diesel, we definitely don’t want to run out before we get there

Back seat passengers: We agree with the 2 intelligent & handsome men in the front Jimmy, make sure you don’t run out of fuel.

Jimmy: A fuck it we will be alright, we’ll chance it.

Jimmy: (a couple of miles later) Ah Jaysis lads we’re after running out of diesel, how did that happen?

Willie: You’re nothing but a useless Bollix Jimmy, now we will all have to get out and push

Frank: I’m going to have a smoke and walk behind the bus, I don’t want to be a bus pusher

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!
