THE shirt 

Can be any piece of cloth that is used to pick up the remnants of 300 million potential children. Every teenaged boy owns at least one and it can be found near his computer or bed. Usually a white shirt that is worn under the main shirt.

Usually white in color. If you or a loved one uses any other color, you are unashamed to show everyone what you do when you're alone or your man juice is colored differently, in which cases, you're either going to need to get checked for STD's or see a psychiatrist.
The shirt that you reluctantly wear because you forgot to put your laundry in the dryer.

The family member of friend that you reluctantly look at because he/ she borrowed THE shirt and is wearing it.

The Shirt before the shirt 

A shirt you put on while getting ready to go out, before you wear the shirt you are actually going to wear that night while you are out.
"Omg, you're going to wear that ugly shirt to the club tonight?"
-"No, of course not. This is just the Shirt before the shirt."

Shirt Before the Shirt 

Became a national used phrase over night when said by Mike AKA "The Situation". As seen on MTV's popular series Jersey Shore (SEASON 2: EPISODE 2). The term describes when an individual, usually of the Guido/Tool variety sports a shirt like a wife beater, prior to hitting the clubs and hooking up with many wasted grenades and land mines. The Shirt he wears out will ALWAYS be ED HARDY, and he will have a plethora of colors from purple to yellow to red and everything in between! This phrase has set the stage for shops on the board walks to have beaters saying "SHIT BEFORE THE SHIRT" all over the East Coast.
Situation:
- I got the fresh to death kicks on, i got some jeans on, and i got the shirt, BUT i aint wearin the shirt when we go out, this is the shirt before the shirt.

- Yoo Pauly my dude after we GTL you gonna Shirt before the Shirt with me tonight when we hit the clubs and bring home some fine pieces of ass back into the Hot Tub.

Pauly: You know it Sitch right after i finish blowing my hair out with my top of the line products! (He uses Spiker for all you posers and wannabe guidos out there who are not even Italian)

Situation: Right on my dude, and if theres time we can get a quit lift in and see how much we can bench, deadlift and squat!

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!
