Trying not to in a way that leads to the desired outcome
And it's not even about the MONEY really. It's trying to steal it from me in a way that leaves me no recourse but at the same time in very public. You know you are letting those retards talk you into letting them steal it. But I just don't have to let them.
Hym "No Jordan you know that does not apply to this. This is you trying to take something away from me and then using my words as pretense. You don't get to take anything away from me. If you're just allowed to take thing from me we all know exactly what I'm going to take from the rest of them. You wany to deny me my every vapid desire. So now you are trying to not do what I want in a way that achieves your desired outcome and trying not to in a way that leads to the desired outcome in a way that requires me to do what you want instead. But I don't have to let you be an invisible barrier to my desire or even needs you cynically believe are desires. If you want me to follow ANY rule, Jordan, you need to enforce THIS SPECIFIC ONE. The one that says HE is not allowed to STEAL, Jordan. Like your book you love so much. That specific thing. I'll take that one, I'll take the stalking one, and hey I'll even take the harassment one. The only reason you are not enforcing the rules on me is to get away with breaking it yourself. I could have said the same thing to the managers at the group home."

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.
