A mental illness marked by:
- belief in obviously absurd tales written by unknown authors detailing the origins of the universe and life on earth;
- a maniacal need to convince the gullible that these stories are true, often in schools and via the media;
- demanding adherence to a select handful of the "rules" in these ancient texts, even when many of the rules are patently absurd;
- the belief that an all-knowing, all-powerful little old man in the sky shows his love for us through widespread calamities, starvation, disease and suffering, along with the possibility of eternal torment if you don't love him back;
- belief that this all-knowing, all-powerful being will do whatever you ask him to do (apparently no one has ever asked for an end to calamities, starvation, disease and suffering).
Sufferers may also experience inappropriate feelings of righteousness and/or displeasure, and display strong hatred toward those who doubt the little old man in the sky has commanded them to love each other, not eat lobster, murder gay men and not work on Saturday, er, um, Sunday.

An increasingly prevalent condition found primarily in young heterosexual American women.

Princesses believe in their own exceptionalism and usually hail from wealthy or upper middle class families. They are quick to describe themselves as "awesome" or "amazing" on social media. Given their access to resources, they are typically attractive, although rarely naturally beautiful. In public, princesses may attempt to cut in line, believing their time to be more valuable than others’. They enjoy berating cashiers, waitresses, and other service workers. Princesses often walk down the wrong side of the street but refuse to yield the way to oncoming pedestrians.
Princesses also typically maintain unrealistic dating expectations. A princess may, for example:
- Stand 5’2” yet refuse to date men under 6’
- Demand a “successful man” despite having never worked a day in her life
- Display the arrogance typically found in 10s as a 6.5
The prognosis for Princess Syndrome is largely unfavorable. Management options typically include:
- Cessation of allowances and support funds
- Full-time work obtained through independent efforts
In some cases, full remission has been achieved, but most patients who present with Princess Syndrome typically retain it for life.

Mike: It was great, but when I got back to her place, I had to run outside naked and pull the fuses for the house to make sure she'd still let me do her.

Get the Guy Syndrome mug.Civilization Syndrome is an affliction targeting gamers, especially turn-based strategy gamers, in which they promise themselves "just one more turn"--only to realize that seven hours have passed and they've soiled their drawers.
Most games that cause Civilization Syndrome possess an explosive mixture: they create long to-do lists for the player, which grow infinitely and exponentially with each completed task, and combine that with the ability to complete tasks easier and quicker than real-life, thus creating an overwhelmingly addictive illusion of achieving things.
Note that a game doesn't have to be turn-based to cause Civilization Syndrome, it merely has to produce addictive and never-ending to-do lists.
Named after Sid Meier's Civilization series, which codified most turn-based strategy tropes present in today's games.

Get the civilization syndrome mug.Riddle Syndrome is acquired when an Embry Riddle student, predominantly one studying engineering, joins their first engineering club or gets accepted into their first internship. Symptoms of this condition include: becoming hot-headed and arrogant, holding the belief that they are superior to their peers, looking down on non-engineering students and chastising their “easy” majors, judging people who switch out of engineering, constant oneupmanship, and becoming an unpleasant or cliquey individual to be around. Those infected with Riddle Syndrome usually stay amongst themselves, developing a clan culture. There is no cure for the condition, though failing tests, loss of friends, and other such related events are known to reduce the effects of Riddle Syndrome. The condition typically limits social opportunities, and even career opportunities.
Non-engineering students are capable of acquiring this condition, though it is less common. Pilot students can especially present similar symptoms, which are tailored to the flying program. As opposed to internships and engineering clubs, pilots may present symptoms as a result of being further along in their training than others or reaching specific milestones.
