Philippot Syndrome

In reference to the youtube videos of the youtube channel of the french extreme-right party Front National, presented by François Philippot, and the strange impression made on the viewers despite the great visual quality. It defines the awkward behavior of people "trying to play it cool" by re-using known codes of the internet but without personality nor actual deep comprehension of these codes, resulting in a uneasy feeling of disconfort for the viewer and the impression that the person trying to communicate is intrusive, manipulative, and soulless.
It is frequently associated to cringe, though it's specific for a precise situation, in which the feeling comes from an intrusion in a particular code-filled space.
"My father on facebook seems to show a Philippot syndrome: he did a fake prank video in his office".
"Bill Nye the cringe guy makes a new awkward show. Phillipot Syndrome. I see no other explanations".

Westralia Syndrome

This was observed in Western Australia after March 2020. Similar in concept to Stockholm Syndrome but in this instance most of the population of the "hermit state" fell in love with their captor in what would become the worlds largest hostage situation. It would seperate one state from the rest of the nation.
OMG those dudes in WA are cooked, the Westralia Syndrome is out of control.
Australia used to be one country, but after Westralia Syndrome kicked in things got weird!
I used to like visiting my family in the West before the Westralia Syndrome ruined things!

Gatcho Syndrome

Typically affects persons with big ideas and small feet. Persons that suffer Gatcho syndrome may do things like bring large quantities of decorations to the office but are unable to balance on anything to put them up. Gatcho syndrome also affects the person's ability to take in carbohydrates as this only makes their ideas bigger, and their feet smaller.
That Sheila, she keeps falling off stuff but she tries so hard and has the best intentions; I think she has Gatcho Syndrome.
