Sequelitis 

The condition that many sequels to successful films suffer from: re-hashing of plot points, shoving the best parts of the original back in your face until you almost hate it, ETC, all while trying to make the movie "bigger and better" than the original through the addition of an over-abundance of special effects, or new characters that you just dont care about (or, on some occasions, omitting major characters that people DID care about). Sequelitis can make one of 2 things happen: the third film will back off and be much better than the second, or part 2 will have been so awful that a 3rd never even gets made.
I dont remember there being a "Men in Black 2" until I saw it the other day, and now I remember why I forgot it to begin with. "Lets take a small joke and turn it into a main character!" Totally suffers from sequelitis.

gratuitous sequelitis 

A disease capable only of infecting Hollywood movie producers. Symptoms include uncontrollable greed and a complete lack of creativity. Once the illness has taken hold, the producer will eventually unload a steaming pile of crap which he will then box up and label with the name of a successful movie plus the number "2" after it. The load of crap will be then be sold to the idiot audience, who gladly forks over money to take a peek at what's in the box, based solely on the name on the label.

In extreme cases, gratuitous sequelitis has been known to create many such boxes of turds, with sequential sequel numbers reaching into the double digits.
Did you see Highlander 2? That was the most amazingly horrible movie ever made. What a case of gratuitous sequelitis!

Sexualitism 

A combination the word sexuality, meaning a person's sexual orientation or preference, and the suffix -ism, meaning doctrine, condition, or characteristic. Many think sexualitism should be used in place of what is now known as homophobia.

The use of the term homophobia is incorrect when used to describe a person that hates homosexual people. Homophobia literally means "fear of homosexual people," whereas sexualitism describes the unwarranted, bigoted hatred many ignorant people today feel toward homosexual, bisexual, transexual, and other individuals of abnormal sexuality.

The use of the terms sexualitism and sexualitist rather than the term homophobia takes the hatred of homosexual people out of the realm of mental disease and in to the same category as such abhorred mindsets as racism and sexism.
Example 1:

Bus rider #1: You know, those fucking homos tryna get up in our schools and corrupt the minds of our children. We need to send them back to hell, where they belong. You with me?

Bus Rider #2: What the hell? Who are you? You are by far the most sexualitist person I have ever encountered. You should be illegal. I don't care if we're on a bus; talk to me again and I'll punch you in the face.

Example 2:

Acting upon racism, sexism, ageism, classism, sexualitism, or any other similarly abhorrent mindset will not be tolerated in this workplace and will be heavily sanctioned.

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
