Faux Gamer Girl

Noun: Any woman who uses video game/nerd culture as a means of artificially increasing her rating on the hotness scale or to obtain undeserved attention from a male audience.

She may even play mainstream games such as Halo/Gears/CoD/etc but will generally have an over inflated sense of self. This is due to the fact that many in the video game community regard moderately attractive women who game thusly: "OmG!! G1rLs Wh0 G4mE ARE HAWT!!"

These types of women will continually point back at the fact that "I play games and menstruate, and therefore, you should worship me" by doing a variety of things. Such as cosplaying or larping as the sluttiest VG character they can find.

Posting images on their blog or tumblr of them naked with only 360 controllers or Mario plushies covering their naughty bits.

Getting a video game based "tramp stamp" or other risque vg based tattoo.

Playing a popular game in a bikini, lingerie, or form fitting clothing (that may or may not contain imagery that's part of video game/geek culture). Then taking pictures of it. Then posting said pictures on the web.

If you spend more time telling people that "you're a girl who plays games" instead of "here's the games I play" you may be a faux gamer girl.

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!
