Harambee 

Verb ha-raam-buttfuck-bee

1. Gang Rape
2. To bond with friends over repeated unprotected sex with a stripper you paid too little.
3. A girl getting it in every orifice while giving a blumpkin.

Comes from the greek origins "harem please" which literally translated means that several men being pleasure by a muslim woman.

Now it is often confused because Kenya is trying to use it as their country motto causing many men to be disappointed when finding out they will not be getting laid.
Sometimes when it gets rough you gotta just put your head down and keep pounding away. Harambee!

I want you guys to go out there give it everything and just compete. Harambee on 3.

I can't wait to Harambee the shit out of that girl.

Harambe's Law

"You are a racist/sexist/xenophobe/homophobe/abelist" is code for "you are winning this argument, and I hate you for that."

The first person in a discussion to call someone Racist, Sexist, Xenophobic, Homophobic or another pejorative term is deemed to have automatically lost the discussion because they have admitted they have no facts or logic to support their position, and thus resort to name-calling to silence further embarrassment.
"I voted against Hillary because she is a greedy, ambitious, government drone."

"You're racist for supporting Trump!"

"Harambe's Law prevails. YOU GET NOTHING. YOU LOSE. GOOD DAY, SIR!"

Harambetard 

An internet retard who, for some unknown psychological defect, is unable to get over the entire "child falls into gorilla's enclosure and the gorilla gets shot in the end" incident. Harambetards are usually seen endlessly posting about insanely unfunny "dank memes" involving some retarded line about Harambe the gorilla. People in their right mind are advised to stay away from harambetards as much as possible, as their retardation is probably contagious.
Guy A: Hey, check out my new harambe post! It's so funny Ima shit myself laughing. Huehue!
Guy B: Will you just stay the fuck away from me? I don't want any harambetards around. Do your troll shit elswhere, you retardo!

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!
