Home Depot Return Scam 

The act of making a false or modified return to the dumb personnel that work the returns desk at Home Depot. This is often done by switching the new product with the broken old product and then returning, also by changing the contents of the packaging with a dummy product to pass off as a return, also one may purchase a tool or piece of equipment, use it then return when done and say that it was broken when you opened it. One could also use carefully discarded packaging, be careful and repackage with something with a similar weight to receive store credit. All at the no questions asked return policy. A contractor could supplement his project profit or increase his tool collection through the use of this and store credit.
It is amazing how the Home Depot Return Scam works time in and time again.

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!
