A Baltimore tradition known for legal public drunkeness. It doesn't matter if you're 12 or 52 - you will be drunk. You will probably ride a school bus to Pimlico, where you will ingest more beers than you ever have before at 8 am. You will continue drinking in line, so that by the time you enter the field, you already have the drunk munchies. You may not actually see a horse all day, yet this IS indeed a horse race. And yet, many have been known to spend money betting on Smarty Jones just to get a lousy $2 pay out. You will come clean and leave covered in either beer, urine, mud, puke, or a fabulous combination of the group. You will probably use a port-a-potty more in this one day than all other days of your life combined. You will challenge people at bonging beers, and invent new drinking games that will be forgotten the next day. You will make grand plans to go out that night and continue drinking, but will pass out anywhere between 3 and 7 pm until noon the next day. You will spend $40 to spend a day in the dirt, and know it's a bargain. If you've gone once, you will return every year thereafter, and love that you live in the fabulous city of Baltimore.

peaness

A mondegreen for penis, much like Pingas. It's heard in a parody of the late Orson Welles from the animated series The Critic during the episode "Eyes on the Prize," in which a group of students watch a commercial shoot for Rosebud Frozen Peas, and see Welles immediately ragequit the shoot after saying the word.

Yes, Rosebud Frozen Peas. Full of country goodness and green peaness.

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!
