In a conversation, the tendency to casually drop the name of a famous person that you know only obliquely.
Typical example of "New Yorker's Disease: "I ran into Harrison Ford today!" Reason not said - they were filming a movie on street in front of his/her place of work.

Green Iron Disease, also sometimes referred to as Green Fever, is a fairly well known (among people affected by it), largely irreversible but nevertheless somewhat treatable condition in which an individual develops a passion and craving for surplus military hardware, most notably military vehicles. Symptoms of Green Iron Disease may include (but are not limited to) owning multiple military vehicles, generators, and the like, maxed-out credit cards, junk email from the government surplus auction web sites, = reduction in time spent with one's spouse because they're wrenching on trucks, irritated homeowner's associations and city code enforecement officers when one's backyard looks like a national guard unit, and complaining neighbors.
When the person experiences withdrawals from military vehicles or hardware, they may exhibit symptoms such as depression, and either avoiding fellow addicts or turning to them for help with managing their symptoms.
Although Green Iron Disease is believed to be incurable, its symptoms can be mitigated by ownership of one or more military vehicles, although as the disease grows the number of vehicles or items owned also proportionally increases. Withdrawals, usually caused by being forced to sell one's collection, can be mitigated by acquiring other military vehicles.

A common disease found in traffic light 🚥 dashboards or traffic light reports that use red, amber and green coloured icons (also know as RAG) for KPIs or performance measures.
The disease is a tendency for people to report mostly green indicating that everything is going well, despite the obvious fact that things are not going well, i.e. they should be amber or red.
