Lipstick lesbian

Lipstick lesbian is a slang term for a woman who is romantically and sexually interested in other women (that's the lesbian part) and also exhibits feminine traits like wearing dresses or skirts, high heeled shoes and makeup (hence 'lipstick'), sympathy, gentleness and sensitivity.

NB a woman who is a lesbian doesn't necessarily hate men, she just isn't romantically interested in having a relationship with a man.
Bob: 'Wow, that girl Janine is fit, I'd love to be in a relationship with with her'.
Sean: 'Sorry bob, she's a lipstick lesbian, she wouldn't be interested'.
Bob: 'Damn it'!

lipstick lesbian

A feminine lesbian. It can be used interchangably with femme to indicate a feminine lesbian, but strictly speaking, a femme is usually attracted to masculine, or butch, lesbians and a lipstick lesbian is attracted to other feminine lesbians.

Often thought of as demure, submissive creatures, many, if not all femmes and lipstick lesbians are quite strong, independant women.
Hmm, what's this? Sex and the City, hairstyle and fashion magazines, satin curtains, a dress spread out on the bed... a picture of two kissing women dressed in Edwardian style? Looks like I've stumbled into a lipstick lesbian's love nest.

Lipstick Lesbian

A feminine-type lesbian who is only attracted to other feminine lesbians. Not attracted to butch or masculine lesbians. Usually likes cats, cuddling, flowers, and affection. Also usually wears feminine clothing, long hair, very fawn-like and pretty. Would rather not have others thinking that all lesbians are butch-like and masculine.
(Any) "Oh my god, feminine lesbians are the cutest!"
(Straight horny men) "Hard to believe she's a lesbian!"
(Butch/Masculine) "Ughhh! I wish that was my girlfriend."
(Lipstick Lesbian) "If I wanted to date someone who looked like a man, I'd find a man."

Lipstick Lesbian

A Lipstick Lesbian is a stereotype subset of lesbians. They are usually high fashion and wear make-up (something not generally associated with lesbians). Because they dress this way they will "appear straight", but are only interested in women.
She wore high heels, makeup and all the boys loved her, but they'd never know she was a Lipstick Lesbian and only interested in women.

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!
