Put in the rotation 

When a group of guys find out they are all dating the same girl. Instead of beefing with each other and the girl over it the guys get together and come to a mutual agreement. The guys allow her to continue to believe she is getting away with it. The guys put her in a secret dating rotation schedule. It ends with the girl being tricked into going on a romantic date with one of the guys from the rotation. When she shows up for her date she is greeted by all the guys who put her in the rotation causing her to have both an oh shit and what the fuck moment as she gets dumped by all of the guys.

Basically, this term means that you can't get something any cleaner (or purer) than it is. It's also meant as a compliment by saying that somebody's mother is not a skanky whore or streetwalker. This term appeared in the young adult edition of the novel adaptation of the 1979 sci-fi thriller"Alien".

reputation era (rep era) 

literal: derived from Taylor Swift’s most notable album (or commonly referred to as an era by her fans) in which she sheds her good-girl image and takes on an alter ego of an unexpected, darker, more vengeful version of herself. the album is rooted in irony and mockery of the people who dragged her name through mud.

figuratively/stan usage: although it is commonly referred to as when a person has a comeback with vengeance and to mock those that have hurt them, it is more deeply understood through her fan base as one of her most romantic pieces of art, because although the album’s setting is a dark place in life, the stories of this album detail of love that cannot be broken by status or superficial things. it is a romance that lifts her from the dead as she “once was poison ivy”, and she grows into a “daisy”.

someone who is said to be in their “rep era” is completely aware of bullshit and clowns and is not only coming back for vengeance, but gives absolutely zero fucks about it, because they probably have the love of their life waiting for them if they “strike out and crawl home”.
person one: rebecca is acting weird, do you think she is mad we called her a hoe?

person two: i hope she isn’t in her reputation era (rep era), she has my nudes

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!
