baccano! 

Baccano! is a fantastic anime series based off of a light novel by Ryohgo Narita. The name of the series is the italian word for "ruckus", and it sure lives up to this name. The show has no main character, instead following the perspective of multiple characters. Sometimes, you'll be watching the hilariously fucked-up killer Ladd Russo, or you could be following Szilard Quates, an alchemist hellbent on learning the secret to becoming immortal, even though he is immortal himself. (Not a spoiler, established early on). Overall, Baccano! is a fantastic series that should be watched by all. Very gory, but amazing. Also, it's dub is on par with Cowboy Bebop, with the english VA perfectly matching the personalities and accents of characters. Go watching it.

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!
