struggle preference 

This term mainly refers to white women that are tricked by black men with an inferiority complex into believing that they prefer white women to black women. They date these black men and are brainwashed into thinking they are better than black women. These women are usually obese and insecure and as a result of not meeting the weight standard of white men in their community go over to the black community to compete with black women for black men. This gives them a false sense of importance and relevance. They believe that because they possess white skin that black men will treat them better than they treat black women. But they are met with a rude awakening when they find out that they got the same black man that black women get. They support the black men financially, are left single moms to half black children then take to social media, i.e. TikTok, to complain about their their deadbeat black baby daddies. This type of black man is typically described as a struggle dusty therefore the "preferred" white woman is a struggle preference.
Struggle preference: "Oh, my God, Becky. Tyrone is treating me the same way he treated his ex black girlfriends. He doesn't pay child support for our three daughters and he never visits them!"

Becky: "Wow. That is totally insane. I thought he said you were, like, more submissive and feminine than his black girlfriends..."

Struggle preference: "I know, right?! He made me think I was better. I'm starting to think it was all a lie. I feel used. I believed him so I supported him financially for two years while was unemployed!"

Becky: "So, okay, I didn't want to tell you this before you guys broke up but I totally saw him kissing a black girl at Six Flags while you were away visiting your parents in Vermont...while you were pregnant!

Struggle preference: Goes on TikTok to complain about the struggle dusty

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
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.
You didn't get any napkins with your takeout pork fried rice? Womp womp.

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!
