A belief in two equal and opposite deities, such as God and Satan. Heaven belongs 100% to God, Hell belongs 100% to Satan. The Earth is their battleground. Nature is Neutral. God and Satan work through human beings. In Christian Polar Theism, God became the man Jesus Christ to let Satan torture and physically kill Him in exchange for the souls of sinners who repent (desire to be sinless).
FORMER ATHEIST: Polar Theism explains away all my objections to Theism. Polar Theistic Christianity explains everything; I just got saved!

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.
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.
