powerspeak 

noun; inflated and often self-serving language used to highlight accomplishments and/or their importance; often used on resumes, during work reviews, and in work-related meetings
Dude A: Basically we packaged and repackaged advertising in way that would persuade some percentile of middle america to gaze upon its flickering beacons of weight loss and mortgage refinancing

Dude B: Is that the official description? Something tells me that didn't come from a company memo.

Dude A: well, that's just a superficial estimation
from within it's a well-oiled machine, an insidious, ad-serving force of nature, partly thanks to me
(is that a better display of ego?)

Dude B: Yeah. Way to rock the powerspeak.

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!
