She asked me about what I thought about the shrink-wrapping problem when I told her I liked dinosaurs, she was totally trying to nirvana-shirt me!
Def1: Expressing you like a band either by wearing merch or listing them as a favorite band but having little to no knowledge of the band
Def2: to call out someone who is a nirvana t shirt by testing them on their knowledge

Person 2: "Smells Like Teen Spirit for sure!"
Person 1: "can you.. name any other songs?"
Person 2: "not off the top of my head"
Person 3: "see? I knew she was just a Nirvana T Shirt a$$ mf"
A word used to describe the women-take-longer-showers-than-men phenomena. It has never been proved what exactly takes them so long to complete a shower, but one can safely assume that they've discovered the enlightenment described in Buddhist philosophy, i.e. Nirvana.
Person 1: Man, what is taking her so long in the shower?
Person 2: Dude, don't worry about it, she's probably just discovered shower nirvana.

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.
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!
