If you say so 

If you're annoyed or angry with whoever you're talking to it basically means whatever, just get the hell out of your face, shuttup, and leave you the fuck alone.
If you're not mad it means: Ok, sure I'll go along with that; or I'll do it later.
Can also be used with affection to a loved family member in place of "I love you too," in some cases.

Teen: (thinking to self) I can't stand that bitch, she gets on my fuckin' nerves! She needs to turn on the damn air conditioning cuz it feels like a sauna up in dis bitch!
Grandmother: (downstairs in kitchen)(limping slowly with cane to get a drink)

Daughter: Daad come on!
Father: I have to go now, I'll call you back later. Bye, I love you, and I'll see you when I get home.

If You Say So 

A song written sang by Lea Michele, which is in her debut album, Louder. “If You Say So” is about Michele’s late boyfriend, Cory Monteith. Her song is about having trouble coping with Monteith’s death. Michele says in her song, “You said, I love you girl/ I said, I love you more/ Then a breath, a pause, you said/ If you say so,” which is their last conversation they had.
Lea Michele’s song, If You Say So, is so sad.

I cried listening to If You Say So.

Oh my god Rebecca! Don’t play If You Say So I’m going to cry!

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!
