Bitcon Scheme 

term to describe the Ponzi-like schemes of the cryptocurrency world, especially in terms of bitcoin; gets its name from "bit" as in "digital", and "con" as a twist on "coin", and to describe the type of scheme (so "digital coin" -> "digital con").

Used as an alternative to "Ponzi" because cryptocurrency adherants argue that only fiat currency is used as the ROI for early investors in Ponzi schemes, contrary to the imagined value of cryptocurrencies being used as the ROI in the cryptocurrency world.
"Mark lost all his crypto investments because it was all a Bitcon Scheme."

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!
