Hyperbole 

Hyperbole is used when you want to over exaggerate a statement or claim. Yet do not want said statement to be taken seriously.
An example of this would be saying “Andy kys nigger” this would be hyperboling my annoyance at you as you can tell by my referring to you as a negro when you are not. This shows my statement should not be take no seriously. However if i were to say “Josh you retarded nigger kys” that would not be a hyperbole as josh is retarded, while not a negro he acts like 1 and should swiftly end his life by chocking on my dick.

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!
