dracarys

A Song of Ice and Fire
Daenerys Targaryen
David J. Peterson
Game of Thrones

Coined by American writer and television producer George R. R. Martin as a word meaning "dragonfire" in the fictional language of High Valyrian featured in his A Song of Ice and Fire novel series. In the novel series, as well as its television adaptation Game of Thrones, the character Daenerys Targaryen uses dracarys (drakarys in the television series) to command her dragons to breathe fire. The language creator chosen for Game of Thrones, David J. Peterson, acknowledged that dracarys was influenced by Latin dracō (“dragon”).

"Dracarys," murmured Harvey, and shot me a smile. "That's from a TV show. Just trying to be supportive."

you know nothing, Jon Snow

From a catchphrase said repeatedly by the character Ygritte to Jon Snow in the novel A Storm of Swords (2000) by George R. R. Martin. The phrase, initially used reproachfully and then later affectionately after Jon and Ygritte fall in love, was popularised by its use in the television adaptation Game of Thrones.

People in New York are complaining about how hot it is and I’m like you know nothing Jon Snow.

2014, @becafarmer, quoted in Metro (New York), 3 July 2014 - 6 July 2014, page 2

All your planning is done. Your bag is packed. You've got your pass. You've finished marathoning Orphan Black. It's con time.

ramalamadingdong

Originally a nonsense word in a song recorded in 1957 by The Edsels.

Who put the bomp in the bomp bah bomp bah bomp? Who put the ram in the rama lama ding dong?

1961, “Who Put the Bomp (in the Bomp, Bomp, Bomp)” (track 1), in Who Put the Bomp, performed by Barry Mann:

‘Last week,’ continued the pastor, ‘I prayed for gifts from the Lord, I went to bed and later woke the whole house singing psalms in tongues! Someone told me I was saying “Oh Lord, when will our church revive?” in modern Greek. Now Lord, we ask for miracles! We ask to speak in tongues!’[…]
As the meeting ended, the hum of tongues from the congregation continued, and one coloured girl was jumping up and down. I thought of throwing in a ramalamadingdong, but decided it might lack sincerity. Someone shouted several phrases in what sounded like Russian. When the meeting ended, three young men stood hugging each other in the emptying hall and beseeching the Lord, with closed eyes, to give them tongues and larger congregations.

1985, Roy Kerridge, “Pentecostals, Chapel, and May Day Celebrations”, in Bizarre Britain: A Calendar of Eccentricity, Akadine Press, published 1999, →ISBN, →OCLC, pages 55–56:

"Bob, Washington has never seen a store like Neiman-Markup. We will take no prisoners. We will make the competition look as if they forgot to eat their Wheaties this morning. We will have customers lined up around the block, credit cards in hand, ready to rock and roll. When it comes to retailing, Bob, we will put the ram back in the ramalamadingdong. Neiman-Markup will be the D.C. store by which all others are measured." "You ever say anything that isn't a cliche?"

1989 February 3, Bob Levey, “THE RETAILING JEWEL NEIMAN-MARKUP”, in The Washington Post, →ISSN, →OCLC, archived from the original on 2023-03-24:

Do the gamma goochie, lots of sheep feel sorry. Phoneyboneyloney, ramalamadingdong.

1991 April 23, “The Gamma Goochie” (track 3), in Ordinary Average Guy, performed by Joe Walsh:

“Yes—Oh! So, as the danger passed, if you want to call it that, the glowing of my soul would have faded until you couldn’t see it any more. I really should be dead—for a second time,’ she laughed. ‘Only I’m not. I’m as right as rain! Well, maybe not rain. I’m as right as... Ramalamadingdong!’

reee

From the sound made by certain species of frogs to ward off predators, combined with the Pepe the Frog and "autistic screeching" memes. According to Know Your Meme, first attested in a 4chan post published December 27, 2014.

"REEEE shut it down! The normies know!" said one poster, for another. "FUCKING NORMIES STOP WRITING ARTICLES ABOUT MY BOARD REEEEEEEEEEEEE," screamed another. "Every time a big news story links back to 4chan, a board is lost to newfags," lamented a third.

"Reeeeeeee" ¶ This is the alt-right's battle cry — another broader 4chan meme subsumed into the movement. One redditor describes it as "something of 'warcry' for socially maladapted people." And because it originated on 4chan, there's also a good chance that it's also intended to mock the mentally disabled.

2016 December 30, Aja Romano, “The 2016 culture war, as illustrated by the alt-right”, in Vox, archived from the original on 2023-08-01:

"Why did we make a game about Pepe? We saw some memes featuring Pepe screaming 'REEEEE' and something just 'clicked,'" a developer for Spirit Realm Games told us in an email. "We thought it was a silly and funny idea to just show off to our friends, nothing more, so we built it just for fun."
