criddler 

a criddler is a very messed up tweeker meth-head. Like a tweeker who will steal your shit & then help you look for it. A criddler will steal your shit, help you look for it then try to sell it back to you forgetting it was yours. Criddlers lurk in yards & bushes looking to steal or cause something caught their eye (People not really there). They wear their hair in a bun w/scrunchie known as a TWEEKIN-BEACON. They carry everything they own (all of it stolen) at all times in backpacks & small bags so they can pack & repack endlessly as the mood strikes them & will follow anyone, anywhere & do anything if the guys got a bag of dope. A stack of used lotto scratch-its will keep them busy endlessly rescratching cause there must be a winner they missed.
The Criddler bag-bitch went for a walk to get some air. 6 hours later and only 1 block away from home she's in the neighbors back yard shopping in the bushes for SHINEY THINGS. She finds an electronic charger that just might work for the cell phone she "GOT" yesterday, or was it today? SHHHH I've got to criddle on the roof & get high cause there's people out ther I have to watch.

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!
