short timer syndrome 

The behaviors that kick in when you are about to leave something, usually a job. There are two facets, one is that all of the little crap that you've been ignoring and tolerating starts driving you crazy. The other is the idea that you're leaving anyway so you can get away with anything.
The accountant with short timer syndrome was thinking about wearing flip flops to work during his last two weeks before starting a new job. And the short timer in Ann Arbor, about to move to Buffalo had to resist the urge to strangle all of the smug half-wit aging hippies.

Michael Jackson Syndrome 

A pathological desire to defame and discredit a good person, which manifests itself mainly in journalists and tabloid reporters, leading to slander, misrepresentation, and a compulsion to ignore the truth in favor of scandal or juicy gossip. One of the most notable practitioners is "Hard Copy"'s Diane Dimond who for the majority of her career has allowed her obsession with Michael Jackson to completely warp her professional ethics and make her credibility a joke.
Journalists with Michael Jackson Syndrome can't tell the truth about anyone more famous and successful than they are--they're pathetic.

Bindi Irwin syndrome 

When a child is a show off and is as annoying as Bindi Irwin (daughter of the Crocodile Hunter, Steve Irwin).

The child could possiblly have an over exaggerated and obnoxious laugh that makes you want to smack them in the face.
Child: I KNOW ALL ABOUT ANIMALS. I'm a grown up, I know everything blah blah blah blah blah blah! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Person: That kid has Bindi Irwin syndrome
