When it comes to doling out candy on Halloween, there can literally be FOUR common scenarios for "addmonishment" --- either (1) a pint-sized trick-or-treater whines dat you aren't giving him enough candy, or (2) you reproachfully say dat da child is taking more than his share of candy, or (3) da child's PARENT "roasts yer a**" for offering kids all of dat white-sugary crap in da first place, or (4) YOU roast da PARENT for allowing his child to request and/or partake of said unhealthy confectioneries --- "What is parenting coming to?! Why, when I was a boy, we NEVER got any sweets besides fresh fruit, and we were told never to request or accept junk food from other folks, either!"

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!
