Blackdown 

Hell on Earth, home to most of the survival camps.

Let's start from the top. The water isn't clean, so don't drink it. The eggs are made of some sort of dust, so don't consume those either. The staff cadets take all your stuff at the beginning of your term, and if you smuggle your phone in somehow, there's no cellular service or wifi. Lastly, washing is much less frequent, so be ready to suffer. Also, there are tales of horror on the parade square.
SWO: Cadet, you'll be going to Blackdown for basic survival.
Cadet: Oh come on! I filed for a transfer! Please, don't make me go to BLACKDOWN!
SWO: Sorry, but this is final. Get on the bus.

BlackDonalds

A McDonald's restaurant located in the heart of the ghetto. Usually an old, run down McDonalds that has black people loitering around all the time. Mostly just to chill with their homies, but drugs can also be dealt there. White people avoid the BlackDonalds at all costs for fear of their lives. Can also be referred to as GhettoDonald's, and is the direct inverse of WhiteDonald's.
Mike drove 5 miles out of his way to avoid the BlackDonald's on Broadway, to find the McDonald's in a more safe neighborhood.

Black Dog 

A kick-ass song by Led Zeppelin that famously starts off with the lyrics "Hey, hey, mama, said the way you move // Gonna make you sweat, gonna make you groove!" sung in acappella by Robert Plant, just before Pagey and Bonzo kick it into high gear with the lead guitar and drums, respectively.

The song supposedly got its name from a stray black dog that kept walking in and out of the studio while the song was being recorded.
Dude #1: Is that "Black Dog?"
Dude #2: Yeah, man! Led Zepp rules!
Dude #1: Sweet! Crank it up!

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!
