Skagway is a one-mile-long town in Alaska with about 800 year-round residents. It is a popular tourist trap in the summer when many cruise ships come into port. Surrounded by mountains it is a small valley where more than ten thousand people used to live during the gold rush in 1898. There they were either robbed of their money, shot, or somehow made it over one of two passes to Dawson where most didn't find enough gold for their trouble.
Wow, Skagway's small

Tourist: It's so much warmer than I expected
Resident: Yeah
Tourist2: Do y'all live in igloos
Resident thinks: (sarcasm) Of course that's why we have all these buildings around us, so we can live in igloos.
Out loud: yeah but only in the winter

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!
