Edgerton Protest 

A "protest" that occurred at Edgerton High School which was against bullying but in reality was because of a cat fight. The "protest" consisted of scumbags, idiots, swagfags, and the most ironic part, bullies. The people here either just wanted to skip school, friends of the girl who was in the cat fight, or they were oblivious to the truth behind the protest. After the protest people started posting on Facebook about it either saying the protest was a bunch of crap (the smart ones) or a bunch of idiots who were whining because the majority of the school thought they were idiots.
*Conversation heard while watching the Edgerton Protest*

Person 1: Look at those idiots out there freezing... this is all about the cat fight anyways!

Person 2: Yeah I know...

Idiot: Umm some of those people are my friends and this is fighting bullying!

Person 1: Then why aren't you out there?

*Minute Bell rings*

Idiot: Oh got to go to class! Sorry *flees*

A BUSTLE IN YOUR HEDGEROW 

"A bustle in your hedgerow," the enigmatic line in Led Zep's "Stairway To Heaven" classic, has mystified music mavens for decades. Hopefully, the following will sprinkle a scintilla of elucidation and edification upon this cryptic conundrum.

A hedgerow is a hedge that surrounds many estates in Britain.

Bustle, or noise or activity, used in this sense, means a disturbance close to home. Something's happening in your world!

It's just a spring clean for the May Queen.

Spring cleaning is an old domestic ritual cleaning meant to do away with the troubles of the past year and prepare for the coming year, and often includes disposing of old, useless things that have been lying around.

The May Queen was a maiden chosen by a village to represent the hopes and potential for the coming year. She was a symbol of beauty, spring and new beginnings.

So here, as an analogy, the lyric refers to getting rid of old and outdated systems in order to allow progress to occur.

OR it can refer to menarche, or the first menstrual cycle, signifying that a girl is coming of age.

OR, it could mean that you have a fuckin' bee in your bonnet!
No example needed.

Roger: "Oh do tell!"
Timmy: "Yes, found some cracking hedgerow grumble down Dale Lane!"
Roger: "Cripes! Better make sure your housekeeper doesn’t find it or there'll be no sherbet fountains for you, ho ho!"

helperton

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!
