laborwave 

When communism and vaporwave intersect. It combines the aesthetic of 90s electronic art and music with the aesthetic of communism and/or Marxism.

Audio-related laborwave mixes vaporwave music with distorted audio from speeches by communist leaders. Visual laborwave looks just like traditional vaporwave, but with communist elements: like pictures of said communist leaders with dank labor-related captions.

Possibly counts as a part of both anarcho-communism and surreal memes. It remains unclear to what extent it's all ironic.
laborwave: it is right to rebel.

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!
