Johnstown Syndrome

The feeling of dread and hopelessness that occurs when one visits or unfortunately lives in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. This syndrome causes everyone to become angry out of spite and be extremely rude to one another. The only thing going for this town is the amount of massive, devastating floods that have killed the entire town. If you’re lucky… maybe you’ll be in the next one and get flushed down the Conemaugh like your coal cracker ancestors.

Stoichkov Syndrome

Affliction where one can walk into a situation completely unaware of the current state of play, and comment instantly, and often with great accuracy on present dealings.
In this situation (where Stoichkov Syndrome was first diagnosed), 3 people are discussing the European Football Championships, #2 and #3 have successfully named 15 of the 16 participating nations without naming any wrong teams, and #1 conducting the quiz presses them for the answer to the 16th (Bulgaria), offering a clue...

#1: "One of the greatest footballers of the past 20 years hailed from this nation."

#4: (joining the conversation from an entirely neutral standpoint, having only heard the clue offered)

"Stoichkov"

#2 and #3: "Bulgaria!"

#1: "Yes! Incredible!"
