Edsel Ford

An Edsel Ford is a complete failure at life. Due to his predecessors' success in the auto industry, the remarkably banal career of Edsel Ford sets him apart as the least noteworthy individual in a lineage of greatness.

edsel ford high school 

Basically the best of the worst. Pretty much everyone agrees it's better than the other high schools in Dearborn even though they all suck. Every dumbass thinks it's the funniest fucking thing ever to steal the "L" from the gymnasium pool sign on the side of the school. All of the teachers think they are the shit when in reality only about 3 of them are good. The hallways stink from people that never take showers and once a week spray on their dollar store cologne/axe (depends how much gas is selling for that week) until people start gagging. Some people celebrate their birthdays in a big way - 25 bazillion balloons, screaming during lunch, and sheet cakes.. this usually pisses off 90% of the school. The sports are okay. All in all a bad school but some students are pretty cool.
idiot: OMFG!!! I LIKE JUST STOLE THE "L" FROM EDSEL!
me: dude, you are fucking stupid. that was and never will be funny.

idiot: the bathrooms at edsel are so cool i always hang out in them
me: you are stupid. seriously they stink so bad and when i come out of my stall i get humped by a group of people screaming things in foreign tongues.

idiot: woooow like edsel ford high school has the best academic program ever and we have so many cool things to do at edsel hehehehehe
me: you will never get laid. ever.

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!
