Nostralia

A physical condition whereby the insides of a person's huge nostrils are visible merely by looking at them head on; there is no need to bend down to look at them from below. Specifically, said person is possessed of two large nostrills, not unlike the continent/nation of Australia.

I totally was digging that chick I met on-line until she showed up at the bar sporting a severe case of nostralia that wasn't visible in her profile photo. I could see all the way up to her brain without tilting my head a bit. The good news was that I could see she wasn't harboring any boogers.

womp

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.

You didn't get any napkins with your takeout pork fried rice? Womp womp.

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!
