street dance 

Street dance refers to contemporary vernacular dance forms that evolved in urban and suburban areas, such as towns or cities, as part of some urban culture. Some examples of street dance sub-categories are "hip hop dance", "funk dance", "house dance", "rave dance", "rock dance", "traditional jazz dance", "clog dance", "club dance" and "salsa dance".

It's not exactly known when the term was first introduced. However, it is known that all street dance forms derives from past folk, tribal, fad and freestyle dancing.

Street dance is popular amongst young people, especially those of african-american descent.
Industrial dance is a street dance that evolved amongst the cybergoth and rivethead cultures as a reaction to the fusion of industrial music with other electronic dance music, such as electro house and dark rave music genres.

small-town street-dance 

A fist fight occurring on a public street, sidewalk, storefront, alleyway, etc.

The name alludes to the propensity of small-town residents to be intimately involved in the affairs of their neighbors, occasionally leading to violent altercations when encountering others in public. This is especially pronounced on weekends and in local bars or taverns where gossip and taunting is more likely to escalate to violence.
The name also refers ironically to the stereotypical portrayal of small-town “hicks” and their radical opposition to dancing, as was portrayed in the popular 1984 musical drama Footloose, starring Kevin Bacon.
“Hey how was your weekend?”

“Oh, it was alright. Went to the bar on Saturday night and got into a little small-town street-dance with Donny after I told him I got up in his sister’s guts.”

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.

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!
