Cage Syndrome 

(n.) The inability to turn down theatrical roles, even if they could indeed ruin one's career. Brought about by such actors as Samuel L. Jackson (appearing in Snakes on a Plane for Christ's sake), and most importantly Nicholas Cage, for the syndrome is founded upon his decisions acutely, the actors continue disappoint many with their unwarranted actions.
Damn, Nicholas Cage has the worst case of cage syndrome ever. He fucking agreed to Knowing and Ghost Rider of all god damn movies in this world.

Bird Cage Syndrome 

When one is accustom to residing in a confine space and suddenly finds themselves in a overwhelmingly larger space and in-turn becomes uncomfortable and hesitant to expand into their new found larger area.
Hey girl, did you hear that Magdalena is now living uptown? She was so used to living in that tiny 450 sq studio that she's now so freaked out about all this new found space and barely even leaves the bedroom. Wow she definitely has a case of the Bird Cage Syndrome.

Nicolas Cage Syndrome 

Where your a bad Actor
This man has Nicolas Cage Syndrome. He's so bad

Hypercell Cage Syndrome 

Situation in which an endless loop of an event (whether that be an activity, a day, a week, or any other period of time) is perpetuated from the standpoint of one cell (usually a person, in fiction) so that they can tweak details of the occurrence (or have them tweaked by other factors) in order to achieve a goal.

This can be both good and bad, in the sense that it's for a good cause, or it's a nightmare trap for some unfortunate victim.
P1: The movie Primer has a serious case of Hypercell Cage Syndrome, as exuded by the end in which an inordinate amount of time (and unknowable number of retries) is spent in perfecting an action during a party to prevent a potentially negative outcome.

P2: How so?

P1: One of the main characters uses a homemade time travel device to loop the same event.

P2: Oh, I see. I'm going to go spam that term on fb now.
It is said of the situation where a person has the bad luck to make contact with his testicles against an undefined surface or object, intentioned or not.
Given the nature of the word, it is more appropriate to design cases where the interaction is made with a moving object, for example, a ball.
Although it is extremely painful for the victim, it tends to be considerably funny to people who witness it.
Today in the baseball game the pitcher took a nutshot; the baseball hit him in the nuts.

Man, I just watched the funniest nutshot video ever.

Nerd neck 

A "human" that spends so much time playing video games that their posture is level nerd neck. Everytime anyone goes tryhard they hunch down and their neck gets longer there fore a nerd neck is always hunched down cause they're always going try hard. In other words a nerd neck is a try hard, since their neck is 100% longer than the average human being due to playing too many video games and taking them serious, nerd necks are not even considered human anymore but something more sad. Nerd necks are often found on fortnite, their natural habitat usually being tilted towers.
What a fucking nerd neck!

He is building so fast, nerd neck!

Looser more like a nerd neck ha!
