ten page syndrome

When you are writing a huge important paper that is supposed to be 15-20 pages, and somewhere around the tenth page, you start feeling like a) you are never going to finish this goddamn paper, b)everything you have written so far is total crap and makes no sense. Generally results in a paper-writing break that may include curling up in a ball and sobbing. Occurs with higher frequency at the end of the semester. Only known cure is actually getting off your ass and working. Ten page syndrome may persist until you are a page or two away from your minimum, when it will be replaced by elation and a second wind of energy.

I can't tell if my paper about postmodernism and the clam trade in Cucamonga is really a worthless piece of shit, or if I just have ten page syndrome.

Restless Leg Syndrome

When people sleep, their legs continue to move. This can be easily mistaken for a dream, when really they are suffering from a disease that does not allow them to stop dancing. It is terrible disease because people are not able to get enough sleep. This can lead to deteriorating physical and mental health.

A: I wasn't able to sleep last night because your legs kept moving.
B: Well, I suffer from Restless Leg Syndrome. I cannot keep myself from dancing while I try to sleep. I was doing an Irish Jig last night. That's the worst one.

nice guy syndrome

A nice guy is an informal term for an often young adult male who portrays himself with characteristics such as being gentle, compassionate, sensitive and vulnerable.The term is used both positively and negatively. When used positively, and particularly when used as a preference or description by someone else, it is intended to imply a male who puts the needs of others before his own, avoids confrontations, does favors, gives emotional support, tries to stay out of trouble, and generally acts nicely towards others. In the context of a relationship, it may also refer to traits of honesty, loyalty, romanticism, courtesy, and respect. When used negatively, a nice guy implies a male who is unassertive, does not express his true feelings and, in the context of dating in which the term is often used, dishonestly uses acts of ostensible friendship and basic social etiquette with the unstated aim of progressing to a romantic or sexual relationship.

nice guy syndrome: in the early 90s I had a crisis. I was about two years into my second marriage. I thought I had found the woman of my dreams. Yet I was frequently frustrated and resentful toward the woman I loved.
