Similar to the reverse kanga, the upright reverse kanga involves defecating in a toilet, preferably someone else's, in an elvated version of the reverse kanga postion. The defecator achieves this by:

1. facing the back wall of the toilet cubicle and placing their feet on top of the cistern lid
2. bracing themself against the ceiling with their hands; and
3. squatting and aiming for the bowl.

The upright reverse kanga is best performed with the seat up to maximise the target area.
Karlos: I've never seen the upright reverse kanga pulled off, but i'm pretty sure it's possible.

Bine: Grubba could pull it off.

Grubba: More rum and I'll have a go.

Bine: Mud butt would definitely help!! Go for a touchdown!!

Upright Citizens Brigade 

Also known as "UCB." Improv comedy group/school in NYC. Had their own TV show for a while which kicked ass.

The UCB are responsible for such great things as Ass Pennies, The Poo Stick, The Hole in the Sheet, Captain Lunatic, Bong Boy, Thunderball, Supercool, The Bucket of Truth, and The Little Donny Foundation.

Their school has launched many a comedian onto an unsuspecting public, including Rob Corddry and Ed Helms of "The Daily Show."
(This was the intro to the show)

From the dawn of civilization they have existed in order to undermine it.

"Our only enemy is the status quo. Our only friend is chaos."

They have no government ties and unlimited resources.

"When something goes wrong, we are the cause."

Every corner of this Earth is under their surveillance.

"If you do it, we see it. Always.
We believe the powerful should be made less powerful.
We have heard the voice of society, begging us to destabilize it.
Antione. Colby. Trotter. Adair.
We are the Upright Citizens Brigade."

upright bass 

Another term for a double bass, acoustic bass, or bass fiddle. It's the largest of the string instruments (resembling a giant violin) and lowest-sounding instrument found in an orchestra. Can be played with a bow or plucked with the fingers. The word "upright" means that it is to be played while standing up while holding the instrument upright, as opposed to how a bass guitar is held (on the lap or at a 45 degree angle). Also not to be confused with the cello, which is smaller and played while sitting down.
Paul Chambers and Ron Carter each played the upright bass at one time or another for Miles Davis.

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!
