Syndrome's Law

The viewpoint that, if every individual item can be defined as , then none of them do.
The term comes from the 2004 Pixar film "The Incredibles", wherein the main antagonist, Buddy "Syndrome" Pine, states,
"... when I'm old and I've had my fun, I'll sell my inventions so that everyone can be superheroes. Everyone can be super. And when everyone's super, no one will be."

"If every character is broken and overpowered, then none of them are"
That's what's referred to as "Syndrome's Law"

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!"

"Resident Evil: The Final Chapter is just a blatant rip-off of 2004 Dawn of the dead"
The person is obviously suffering the "Snyder Syndrome"

Rocket Syndrome

Let action B have some generally accepted prerequisite state A. That is, someone must be in state A before performing action B. We say that one has rocket syndrome if that individual attempts to pursue action B before achieving state A.

I recently attributed my attempts at the challenge exercises in the text "Professor Evil's Advanced Super Hard Calculus For Definitive Non-Beginners" to rocket syndrome.
