A misspelling of "metal" (obviously only used on myspace and AIM since the pronunciation of the two are exactly the same) commonly used by scene kids or any member of several sub-genres of human being not usually associated with heavy music. Usualy followed by "br00tl" or, in person, a "metal claw," it is meant to describe a band as being heavy while, 9 times out of 10, it's not. Once a common term used by scenesters it is now more of a tongue-in-cheek expression used to make fun of someone who thinks it's still cool to say medl even though that person was probably saying it themself about a week previously. "Medl," "br00tl," and "the metal claw" usually irritate metal heads who actually take their music seriously and know what makes something heavy. However, any false "medl-heads" are usually ignored since they're not worth correcting.
Scene kid: Bullet for my Valentine is so medl

Real metalhead: *Can't hear because he/she turns up the Deicide*

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!
