stank face 

A reflexive expression made by musicians and music lovers - particularly those involved in Black American music scenes (funk, jazz, hip hop, etc.) - to show appreciation for a particularly stanky (i.e. funky) beat, solo, riff or bassline.

Not the face made by white, suburban women whose cats have shat up the litter box. (See Taylor Jones' blog post...)

Stank Face 

In the context of music: A word for the facial expression that someone will use when they enjoy a particular aspect of music.

Characterised by either a scrunched up face, narrowed eyes and closed mouth
Or loose and droopy, as if their face was just melted off.
This is usually paired with a head or neck that is "bopping" up and down to the beat of the song. The whole body can be pulsing with the groove of a song, it doesnt have to be just 1 body part as each case of stankface is unqiue and every person has a unique one

E. G. A really funky bass line

Any form of music can trigger a stank face. It doesnt have to be the genre of funk (frequent case). It is entirely personal as to ehat someone finds groovy.
"Jeez man, that Bass hit so hard it gave me stank face."

"The fact you have a stank face right now shows me you like the song."

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!
