Boba Fett Syndrome

When a minor character in a film or tv series with little screen time becomes one of the most beloved characters in the show/movie. Its name originates from the character Boba Fett from Star Wars who, despite having little screen time, very few lines and a disappointingly lame death in the original trilogy, gained a cult following and is by far one of the coolest characters in the Star Wars universe.

MICHAEL JACKSON SYNDROME

An increasingly common condition where, on hearing a Michael Jackson song, a person spontaneously bursts into an MJ dance routine. Symptoms can include a rhythmic jerking of the neck muscles, slow nodding of the head, pouting and thrusting of the pelvis. The movements are often accompanied by squeals, whoops and shouts of Shamone! In extreme cases the patient exhibits zombie-like characteristics such as clawing fingers and twitching before grabbing their own knees, turning and stomping forwards. This often occurs in the company of others with the same affliction, when the condition becomes collectively known as Flash Mob.

I can’t stop dancing to Thriller – I must have Michael Jackson Syndrome and it’s addictive, man!
