So Much In Common 

When you have absolutely nothing in common with someone that you have to say you have so much in common as a joke but deep inside it's not really a joke because you actually have absolutely zero in common and it actually hurts sometimes because you can't relate to anything with each other not even anything simple like food or video games or anything like that just absolutely nothing is similar between the two of you and you both know that but you still joke around about it and laugh at silly things together which is perfectly fine but you know it's peak when you point out the smallest thing you both like and act like it is something you have in common when in reality you are just being picky and trying to find something in common from any and every single atom in the universe but at the end of the day as long as you get along with each other there doesn't really have to be anything in common between the two of you.

And breathe. The GIF below signifies the amount of commonality between you two.
Me: *meets bud who I have nothing in common with*
Me: "Omg we have so much in common!!!!!!!!!"

Going Full Common 

To give a public expository speech using vague and uplifting rhetoric; spoken in a sing song rhythmic cadence; as though participating in an open mic poetry slam.

This description is based on the key poetic delivery style elements of rapper and slam poet Lonnie “Common” Rashid Lynn.

This expression was made popular by the Season 2 trailer of the series Woke. The expression will get old when people find their own approach to public speaking; and, stop biting other people’s style. Which — actually — means that this expression will be around for a while!
Damn! Did you hear him give that best man speech; he was going full Common celebrating the bride and groom. I can’t remember a word he said but it made me feel a lot better about jumping the broom.

Common Sense Media 

A piece of shit website where soccer moms who have children that want to play a game or watch a tv show or a movie refer to to see if it has positive messages, violence, sex, drugs, and of course the worst category ever CONSUMERISM. To get a good review it must go with the common sense media guidelines. They give all good movies 3 stars which sucks.

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!
