vandershank 

The nickname given to Mike Vanderjagt, kicker of the Indianapolis Colts.
He was given this nickname due to the horribly shanked (missed to the right) field goal that would have forced overtime in the AFC divisional game of Colts vs Steelers.

He is now known as the kicker who can't kick under pressure, or Vandershank. He has also had previous experiances in missing game-crucial fieldgoals.
"I can't believe he missed the field goal! Well, at least Vandershank is the Cowboys' problem now."

"Yeah, I'd rather have Vinatieri anyway."

Vanderblah

2. The paradigm, or world view, of a typical Vanderbilt kid, who has never worked a day in his life but enjoys blowing lines off his daddy's MasterCard while drunk driving gorgeous sorority girls around campus on blunt rides in his BMW.

3. Vanderbilt University.

(Can also be used as an adjective)
When Scott saw the headline about the Darfur genocide, he was momentarily distracted from his life of Vanderblah. After taking another bong rip and turning on his XBox 360, he had forgotten about Darfur entirely: Ah, Vanderblah!

As Sarah sped her RangeRover down West End, she pointed to the raggedy man on the bench, joking, "That homeless loser will never enjoy a day of Vanderblah in his life!"

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!
