Pasta Tolerance Treshold
Indicates for how many successive days you can live on pasta (plain or with something) without turning grumpy. Especially important when you are a poor student. If you are beyond your pasta tolerance treshold (PTT) you might want to switch to rice, polenta, potatoes etc. for a few days until you reach, for example, your rice tolerance treshold (RTT).
"Ey dude, pasta for dinner tonight?"
"No man, I'm really beyond my Pasta Tolerance Treshold. I'm going for rice instead."
"Alright, I see what you mean. Your PTT is not to be messed with!"

zero tolerance
A policy that was put into use by United States schools and other establishments soon after the Columbine tragedy.
In practice, zero tolerance policies allow for no weapons or dangerous objects in school.
However, the noun "weapon" can mean "an object that can be used to cause harm"; the phrase "dangerous objects" is a plural of the same meaning; therefore, almost any object can be considered a weapon.
Because of this, overzealous officials often unleash horrificaly exaggerated sentences for the silliest of things.

womp
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.
