Ironic Weeaboo 

An obnoxious person that claims to ironically be a "weeaboo" because he's insecure about liking Japanese media.

The ironic weeaboo usually only "likes" anime and that are considered novel and low-depth like Maidragon, Monster Musume and Love Live or entry level such as Kill la Kill, Evangelion, and Jojo. The same goes for his Japanese game tastes which usually consists of equally surface-y series such as Neptunia, Senran Kagura, and Danganronpa of which most of the time he'll never actually play and will only claim so due to, again, it's novelty and "Japanese-ness"; The most the ironic weeaboo will ever actually "play" a game are pay-to-win mobages featuring fapbait girls such as Granblue Fantasy and Fate/Grand Order as it's easier to get into by just throwing hundreds of dollars at the screen than putting the investment in an actual, in-depth game as that would make them too "cringey" and "weird".

The ironic weeaboo is also quite fond of forced loosely anime-derived fads such as Earth-chan, Smug Wendy's, "Traps aren't gay", vaporwave, etc. and tired out phrases that have lost their meaning entirely like "waifu" and "thicc".

When the ironic weeaboo brings himself among the people that actually are actual fans of Japanese media he will immediately be hated which then the ironic weeaboo will become immensely butthurt. Thus he'll usually only ever be around other ironic weeaboos instead. You can mostly see them writhing about in Discord servers with anime girl avatars.

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!
