Tandy Syndrome

When someone in the office is given a nickname they refuse to acknowledge and the resulting defiance has a paradoxical effect, becoming the primary way that person is known, addressed, or referred to.

Tandy: I refuse to be called Tandy!
Everyone : Tandy is suffering from Tandy Syndrome.

fretchy syndrome

(noun) The after-effect when one plays Guitar Hero for a prolonged period of time, the result of which is that for a few minutes after playing stops, everything seen appears to strech vertically outward. This is most likely caused by long hours staring at the fret board onscreen needed to see which notes to play.

After Trogdor-Cat and Bob pulled an all-nighter playing Guitar Hero II against each other, they both experienced severe attacks of fretchy syndrome.

The AL syndrome

"The AL syndrome" is a workplace phenomenon characterized by individuals employing ostentatious language and intricate terminology to mask their lack of understanding or proficiency. This behavior is motivated by a desire to bewilder listeners, creating the illusion of competence while concealing a genuine deficiency in knowledge or skills. It often manifests in verbose, convoluted communication that serves to obfuscate rather than clarify. This tactic can be detrimental to effective collaboration and hinder productivity within a professional environment.

During the team meeting, Adam resorted to the AL syndrome, using a barrage of complex jargon to discuss the project, despite having a limited grasp on its intricacies.
