Burnbook 

To simultaneously incite turmoil and appoint, or enable the appointment of, a false successor to the accountability related to the aforementioned incitement; thereby scapegoating, or choosing to be complicit in the scapegoating of, one’s successor.

Origin: the rhetorically-abrasive “burn book” from the 2004 comedy film Mean Girls composed predominantly by Regina George (played by Rachel McAdams), who goes on to distribute the aforementioned book to those mentioned in its contents; she mentions herself in a false-but-penultimately-viable attempt to exonerate herself from the conviction of contributing to it.

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!
