"Oh, he's cute but he has a roaring case of alpha male syndrome. all he does is talk about how awesome he thinks he is at everything and he never let me choose where we'd hang out at night. plus he punched my sister's boyfriend in the face for asking me what time it was."

"damn. what a fucking chode."

male answer syndrome 

The tendency, especially among males, to make educated (?) guesses about subjects and present them as fact. The syndrome manifests itself most frequently when the sufferer is asked a question by a member of the opposite sex.
Female: Do I need to put premium gas in my car?

Male: Absolutely. If you don't, you will short out your cam injector bearings.

Female: Uh, I think you are suffering from Male Answer Syndrome.

Greedy Fuck Syndrome 

A common medical egocentric condition driven by monetary gain at the expense of others.
Dave the president of his studio was diagnosed with Greedy Fuck Syndrome when he outlined a proposal where his company's assets would be sold and transferred to the buying company and had planned to fire his hard working employees.

Dragonball Syndrome 

Related to Mudflation, but not isolated to MMORPGs. A plot device whereby a storyline or a video game's progress is driven by an increase of pure numbers. Challenges are not overcome by wit, compassion, or strategy, but by simply matching or overwhelming the opposing force. The next challenge typically requires even more mathematical growth to win.

The Dragonball series is a classic example, as it centers around the growth of a simple martial artist as his power grows to compete with his enemies. Eventually he can bend time, dance in black holes, and destroy solar systems with a mere glance. Power ratings of around 200 were amazing at the start of Dragonball, where ratings of over 20 billion rampage through the latest volumes.
Dragonball Syndrome in action:

Ex1: "Vegeta! What does the scouter say about his power level?"
".... It's over NINE THOUSAAAANNNNDDD!!!!" (Over 9000)

Ex2: The latest WoW expansion increases your level cap to 80! This is nearly a 20 improvement over the old 60 cap!

That's Honest Asshole Syndrome (H.A.S.)

White Knight Syndrome

A fairly common condition generally affecting males, White Knight Syndrome encompasses a wide range of behaviour related to "saving a damsel in distress". Almost always found near to or with Attention Whores, men affected by White Knight Syndrome are men who feel the need to protect, provide attention and affection, be viewed as "heroic", boost their ego, and generally feel good about themselves (usually because they have low self-esteem, or a small penis, or both).
Men with White Knight Syndrome are invariably attracted to Attention Whores or Problem Women (a sub-genre of the Attention Whore, the Problem Woman craves male attention and uses her often self-inflicted "problems" to attract the White Knight) because such women can cater to the White Knight's needs and vice versa--very much like the symbiotic relationship of bacteria and fungus in lichen. Men affected with White Knight Syndrome will spend long hours cuddling such women and giving them large amounts of attention and affection, sometimes struggling to hide their erections because the ego-boost feels so great. The male affected with White Knight Syndrome ends up in a position similar to the friend zone, but this does not matter to him--he's being a good guy by offering an Attention Whore more attention.
White Knight's girlfriend: "Shall we go out this evening? I worked hard all month so that we could go to that expensive restaurant we've always wanted to visit!"

White Knight: "Oh no! I'm terribly sorry; I was texting Suzie all last night behind your back and she says that she's pregnant again and her boyfriend raped her and her horrible, selfish father refuses to pay for her clit piercing, and she needs me to come over and hug her! I must go to her and comfort her, poor poor thing!"

White Knight's Girlfriend: "Isn't that girl using you as a snot-wipe on legs?"

White Knight: "No, I'm being there for her! I'm her shoulder to cry on! She needs me! I'm such a great guy!"

White Knight's Girlfriend: "What about me?"

White Knight: "Sadly for you, you're a well-balanced lady who doesn't have any problems and doesn't constantly burden me with your need for attention; you're not a damsel in distress and you can't provide me with the ego-boost I need. Go pay our bills, I'll be back in two days."

White Knight's Girlfriend: "Your white knight syndrome is getting out of hand. You know, I love you even if your penis is small."

Reader's Digest Syndrome

(n) - The tingly, prickly, and sometimes debilitating feeling in the legs after a long toilet session. Most commonly resulting from sitting there too long to finish a column or story in the bathroom companion. Originally resulting from its namesake magazine, Reader's Digest Syndrome or RDS can result from any lengthy toilet/reading session of any material.
I took the magazine to the crapper so I could read a quick article while I drop the kids off at the pool. I ended up reading a 5 page article about some dude falling off a cliff even though I was blessed with a one wipe wonder. I tried to stand up but I had a serious case of RDS (Reader's Digest Syndrome) and my legs gave out. I ended up blacking out when I hit my head on the toilet. The janitor found me 2 hours later with pants around my ankles. I think he took my magazine...
