anti-dramatic

Akin to "anti-climactic;" when one anticipates an event will be rife with drama, but said event unfolds without the drama.
I thought for sure Juanita would kill me when the lie detector said I had cheated on her with her sister, but she was uncharacteristically subdued, since the paternity test proved that our baby was by another man--the whole thing was strangely anti-dramatic.

a.k.a. P.D.G.D.

a medical condition were all someone thinks and talks about is an individual game after they have beaten said game. Said victim also begins to experience analogies between real-life and said game resulting in "playing" out loud, in front of everybody. This disease casues the player to want to get back to playing the game, and temporarily makes him/her feel like they are still playing. This can also spread to the subject's dreams. Similiar to Post-Dramatic Stress Disorder.
