Subvert Expectations

To destroy a great TV show with out-of-character actions and inconsistent logic for the sake of unneeded twists. Usually associated with Game of Thrones, but can be applied to Lost, Dexter, and other TV series.
Did you watch the last episode of Game of Thrones? D&D love to subvert expectations. Yesterday, they transformed Jon Snow into a wolf and made him eat Sansa.

groundhog expert

A moron who fails at internet posting by making an utterly stupid inane comment, but in so doing, becomes an instant internet celebrity. Essentially the internet equivalent of Jessica Simpson's comment about "chicken of the sea."
A: "That's not the groundhog making that noise, seriously. Is it?"
B: "please just delete your account and go join the church of scientology....."
A: "Fuck you guys, I'm no groundhog expert."
