rottenair 

An Irish Airline founded by one Micheal O'Leary. Generally classified by it's lack of any customer service, intolerably rude staff (uneducated and incompetent) and failure to run services. They frequently misquote fares and extort surcharges from passengers, leave them stranded following cancellations and misquote regional airports sometimes hundreds of kilometers from the advertised destination. An experience of flying rottenair typically involves poorly designed and dirty cabins plastered in advertising and being repetitively pestered by crew promoting advertising and other services airport transfers, rottenair credit cards and scratchcards, inedible food and knock off gifts and perfume. Such actions along with extorting government and airport authority bodies allow rotten air to offer fares which at face value appear a fraction of the cost of other carriers but including all surcharges and the added inconvenience are often more expensive or only marginally cheaper...

Rottem is one of a kind. While most people will mispronounce and misspell his name, it’s all okay because it’s a complicated name. Rottem is very trust worthy, kind, and protective. While Rottem can be short-tempered, it’s only because he’s hangry, so feed him. Rottem loves to be in the presence of others but also loves to be alone. Whenever you come across a Rottem, keep him, marry him, because he’s a keeper.
Damn Rottem sure is sexy, but how do I pronounce his name?

rotterator 

Derogatory term for a moderator. It is often shortened to the slang word 'rotter'. A rotterator (or rotter) thinks that he is improving the world through censorship, but the reality is that he and the site he is censoring is in fact rotting away (hence the term). Those with a better perspective than a typical rotterator (or rotter) realize that censorship should never be an indulgence, but only a necessary evil.
The forum's most infamous rotterator (or rotter) could not cope with being unable to delete negative comments about him on another forum where here lacked moderating permissions.

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!
