As opposed to "o/" which is a wave used simply as a greeting or a goodbye "p/" can mean that you are only popping in for a moment to say hello (as if leaning through a doorway) OR it can mean that this is your final goodbye (as if waving as you walk out of view through a door or past a corner).

:P is quite possibly one of the most clean and innocent emoticons to ever exist. You ideally would add this towards the end of your sentence to convey a sense of playfulness and lightheartedness, especially when the things you've said can come off as a bit inappropriate/insensitive if interpreted the wrong way.

NOTE: this text-based emoticon CANNOT be substituted for the emoji equivalent of a tongue sticking out (especially not the standalone tongue, dear god no).

Playa. Short and gangster for player.

Started by rapper Gunna and his Shady Baby friends, Gunna refers to any human to come across his presence as "P".
Going further to the use of P, 'Playas Only' was a small movement inspired by the Playboy magazine portraying Gunna as Hugh Heffner with his "Wunna Bunnies" recording the music video for his possible new track "Playas Only", and the main theme for his "Playas Room" birthday party full of high class guests and family.
Future (on the phone): "You pushin P?"

Gunna: You pushin P or what? OR WHAT??

Gunna: P.

Metro: Yea you get it!

Gunna: P!!! Heheh.

Metro: eheh.

Gunna: heh!..... heh.

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!
