Stockholm Syndrome

The problem of "sailing blind" caused by non-illuminated controls on the radar-scopes of large vessels.

The Andrea Doria's sinking was a classic example of Stockholm Syndrome --- if the Stockholm had been equipped with lighted instrument-panels, its collision with the Andrea Doria would probably never happened.

palace syndrome

The state of psychological distress (or, perhaps, arrogance combined with hubris) which leads people to build huge mansions – or to knock down huge mansions in order to build even larger ones. It’s the real estate version of the desire to drive around town in a Hummer – only much, much worse in terms of wasted energy and money.

D'ya see in Forbes that story about the 40,000 square foot mansion in Florida that reached 90% completion before the owners “lost interest in the project”?

"Jah mon, that's what I call a bad case of palace syndrome".

Hero-Syndrome

The inability to escape the mindset that the popular music game Guitar Hero or other such music games creates. Sufferers of Hero-Syndrome will find it impossible to listen to songs not included in the game without imagining them being in the game, playing along with a phantom guitar controller or in more extreme cases dreaming about songs accompanied by scrolling frets and chords.

"Dude, what are you doing?!? Why are you playing air guitar to the Neighbours theme tune?"

"I don't know man, I can't help it! I think I have Hero-Syndrome"
