Charm City Skate Park
Now this is a real indoor skatepark! A wide ass mini ramp with tight trannies, extensions, escalators, a flat bank and not one but TWO death bridges. It spines into a four foot square bowl. The long and skinny street area plays into the mini bowl set up smoothly, and the huge take-off roll in the corner will give you more than enough speed to hit up the place
There is a nicely stocked skate shop on the premises. Along with a pool table, Charm City Indoor Skatepark also boasts two of those old 720 skateboard arcade games- you know the ones with the dream layouts and the duck-footed punk with the mohawk. They also have one of those tricky little claw games, but instead of winning a crappy stuffed animal, you can nab a set of wheels!

skateboard-city
A skateboarding forum that has maybe 3 good skaters, and the rest just plain suck! Almost all the members are rude, and are way too opinionated about a topic they know nothing about. Most likely members ride big wheels, and suck their thumbs at night. The only good people on the site are admins and moderators, so therefore, it can be tolerated when they post. The rest are outcasts from other skateboarding sites they got banned from like ramprage, skaterscafe, transworld, and a few others.

womp
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!
