To Darken the Doorstep is when you go to someone's home and you cast a shadow over their doorstep. It usually used to describe the action of someone you know and haven't seen for a while unexpectedly turns up at your home or it's something you tell an unwanted visitor not to do ever again.
Sue: "OMG, you never guess who had the nerve to darken the doorstep this morning."
Pat: "Who?"
Sue: "Jo!"
Pat: "Jo, Jo who?"
Sue: " you know the one that coursed all that trouble at my party."
Pat: " Oooh! That Jo, haven't seen her around here for ages, did you invite her in?"
Sue: " No I did not! Told her to clear off and to never darken my doorstep again."
Named after the extremely unsafe 2 to 4 inch door sill at the doorway of every Mexican museum in Mexico City. Watch as beefy American tourists trip and fall flat on their fat fucking faces as the museum staff smirk and don't help them up.
Gossipy Bitch 1 (Sipping Pre-Noon Sangria On A Beach Patio): What's with Helen these days? She seems to have an extra bounce in her step at hot snake yoga every morning.
Gossipy Bitch 2 (Also An Alcoholic): Well, you didn't hear it from me, but she's been fucking that young hot pool cleaner, Brody. It's no wonder, she's been complaining for years that her husband Bob is hung like a Mexican Doorstep...
A guy or girl who is attractiveenough that if they showed up at your doorstep, you would have sexual relations with them and not turn them away. But they are not attractive enough to where you would go out of your way to pursue them
I just met this Doorstepper girl the other day, I'd probably rate her a 6/10.
While our lifespan is the number of years we will live, our healthspan is the number of healthy years we will have and our sexspan is is the number of years we will continue to be healthy enough to continue having an active sex life.
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.
You didn't get any napkins with your takeout pork fried rice? Womp womp.
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!
