Hipster Head Bob 

The bobbing of the head that crowds do at a show when they don't know what else to do with themselves; approval of the show, or complete confusion and puzzlement of how their bodies should move, react, and connect.
OMG! I wanted to dance so bad, but with all the Hipster Head Bobbing people, I couldn't, I might just overwhelm them with my slight variety of moves that involve other parts of my body but my head!

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.
