Hot Topic shirt
a retail store at shopping centers/malls that is known for its notion of being "hip", "individualistic", "radical", or "goth".
However, actual goths most likely do not shop at hot topic, nor does hot topic particularly fit perfectly into the 'goth' fashion. it is more emo in that it employs "obscure" (i use that term verrry lightly) themes in its clothing, such as faux-vintage and faux-indie. for example-- it might have a transformers shirt-- made especially for the movie franchise and soon to be bought by millions of "fans" that've never owned a transformer figure in their childhood.
the majority of patrons of hot topic believe that they are being individuals by buying stuff that are also sold at every other hot topic around the world. many times they will have no interest or before-interest in these things such as invader zim.
TO MAKE A HOT TOPIC SHIRT--
1) get an "obscure" or "unique" pop culture symbol
2) add bright colors, random lines, cloud shapes, lightning bolts, etc.
3) price it for $18-$25
4) empower teens into thinking they are making a difference!
it is IMPORTANT to note that 99% of the shirts sold at hot topic are extremely fickle, because hot topic is in fact, one of the most up-to-date stores in the entire industry. for example, as harry potter comes out in theaters, crates and crates of HP merchandise will be sold at hot topic, many of these shirts and clothes poorly and rapidly designed for the hungry eyes of rich suburban teenagers everywhere.
shirts can also contain the extremely timely FRED, charlie the unicorn, little big planet, etc.
=as long as it is popular for at least a week, hot topic will likely have it on a shirt=

womp
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!
