Tommy Doyles

Multiple-level Irish-themed Pub near Harvard Square in Cambridge, Massachusetts that took the place of a popular live music venue, House of Blues. The bar is infamous for being frequented by both nice Harvard undergraduates and a wretchedly rude, sullen waitstaff. One of the few bars in this world where management tolerates and even endorses male bartenders competing with patrons for female patron companionship.
“Did you hear that Brian got kicked out of that ‘cuz he was chattin’ up some girl?”

“Yea, the lumpy, sullen bartender with the notoriously small prick couldn’t make conversation but got jealous and had him removed.”

“How would anyone know about the prick? He’s still a virgin!”

“Well, Brian's rolling through there Friday night with some thuggin’ hooligans, he’s turning Tommy Doyles into the OK Corale, Motherfucker.”

Doyle Brunson 

The "Doyle Brunson" is common slang for 2 particular pre-flop hands in the variation of Poker known as "Texas Hold 'Em". These hands are 10-2 offsuited, and A-Qo. The former is named the Doyle Brunson because Doyle Brunson, the actual living poker legend, won the World Series of Poker with this hand twice consecutively. The latter is named for Brunson because it is a hand that for an odd reason he will almost ALWAYS fold.
I flopped a full house with a Doyle Brunson, but fell to a higher full house with 10s full of 9s on the turn.

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!
