Jury Duty 

An interruption to your daily life courtesy of the American legal system.

A chance to see how stupid lawyers actually are and an opportunity to mix with about 60 total strangers. A day out of the office that seems twice as long as any day at work. A time where you actually don't want your name pulled out of a bingo spinner for a raffle. Sitting around and listening to the personal business and opinions of potential jury victims.

A chance to see what kind of murderous scum, Mel Sachs, Esq. to the famous will take on when he isn't working on Mike Tyson.
January 21st was a wasted day in my life waiting around the Rockland County NY Courthouse.

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!
